Rogue Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Is the apothecary also a veteran, as in, can I buy him weapon upgrades? Thanks in advance, and the usual apologies if I missed it on the search thing or am asking in the wrong forum altogether.

nighthawks Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 sure. he has the basic equipment as listed in the codex, and may upgrade (exchnage) wherever this is legal for that list of equipment (bolgun for a fist, for example). no-exchnage upgrades are all ok.

Captain Malachi Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I thought the apothecary was the only memeber who couldn't have upgrades? I swear I remember seeing this discussed somewhere else and it was decided he couldn't.

Hexx Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 The Apothecary is not a Veteran (Squad list is 4 Vets,1 Apothecary) and therefore may not take any upgrades that say "'Veteran" (Which iirc is pretty much all of them except for the bikes) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/150493-apothecary/#findComment-1749246 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarpSpawn Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Agreed. He is not a "veteran". The wargear options do not say "model who has the same stats as a veteran", they simply say "veteran". Should also be noted that the company champion is not a veteran either, so only gets the wargear that goes with his type.

Rogue Posted October 27, 2008 Author Share Posted October 27, 2008 Yeah, that's how I read it too. I have a model I wanted to use, but he's carrying a power fist and hand-flamer (as part or a fairly over-armed mk6 squad to go with a retro captain model). Still, no worries. It can always count as a field progenitor and 'first-aid-kit-in-a-big-glove' or something... Cheers.

nighthawks Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I was out of line. that'll teach me to post without reading. I agree and apologize for the ignorance.

Albion de Heaven Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Dark Angels codex has a FAQ about Deathwing and Ravenwing apothecary/standard bearer that states clearly that also ater beeing upgraded to apothercry they can use special equipment but i think that with 5th ed. SM things are different since it's not the upgrade but a different char Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/150493-apothecary/#findComment-1749951 Share on other sites More sharing options...
