Brother Adeaus Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Alright, in the throes of madness that is 1 o'clock in the morning, I was rummaging about and found a box of Dark Angel's Veterans, completely untouched. Now, I've been planning a new Chaos Warband for some time, and I thought I'd take a unit of Fallen for flavour. Rules wise, I was going to field them as a (currently) 5-man team of Chosen. Now, reading the entry, I come across this little thing. One Marine may take a special or heavy weapon. Then, and here's the bit I want double checked, "up to four more models may swap their bolters for X", with the list of normal special weapons. So, I'm asking, is it possible for me to take a five man squad armed completely with flamers? Not that I'm going to, I don't have enough flamers in my bitz box xD But I would like to see if this is correct, and not a result of my sleep deprived brain.

Brother Adeaus Posted September 8, 2008 Author Share Posted September 8, 2008 Alright, cheers for that Zeller. I wasn't sure if I was reading it right or making things up in my head due to lack of sleep. Now... to figure out what kind of warband I want to tag these Fallen too... *trundles off* Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/145416-rule-check/#findComment-1685665 Share on other sites More sharing options...
aioannou Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 if you want 5 flamers, much cheaper just to kit out havocs with them. saves the cost of the chosen marines Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/145416-rule-check/#findComment-1686565 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurfalypse Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 if you want 5 flamers, much cheaper just to kit out havocs with them.saves the cost of the chosen marines Unless you wanted to infiltrate or outflank in a rhino with said weapons. <_< Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/145416-rule-check/#findComment-1686636 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drudge Dreadnought Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Havocs only get 4. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/145416-rule-check/#findComment-1686637 Share on other sites More sharing options...
chillin Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 if you want 5 flamers, much cheaper just to kit out havocs with them.saves the cost of the chosen marines But havocs don't have infiltrate, which is even better in 5th ed. If going to give them flamers I would make it a 10 man squad as they are obviously going to end up in hth and 5 just is too easy to kill in hth or rapid fire range.
