Gentlemanloser Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 in the dh armory, it states that you may not give a model the same weapon twice. does this mean that you cannot give a brother captain with a th/ss a th from the armory, or even a power weapon if this is true. It really depends if the armory rule is you can't *purchase* the same item twice. If it's a mini can't *have* the same peice of wargear twice (which includes weapons) then no. (But then we're back to is a NFW the same peice of wargear as a Power Weapon, and is a MCPW different to a PW, or a DH different to a TH...) Not got the codex in front of me, so can't check. Edit: How about a Null Rod and a Power Weapon. I don't think anyone would stop you buying both from the armoury, as they are different items. But a Null Rod 'counts as' a power weapon. Does that mean you *can't* purchase another Power Weapon? And if you do have both a NR and PW, do you not get the extra attack.

Spartans Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Why would you not give your GrandMaster a psycannon hits on 2's wounds on 3's job done Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157596-gn-thunder-hammer-s/page/2/#findComment-1845768 Share on other sites More sharing options...
number6 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 in the dh armory, it states that you may not give a model the same weapon twice. does this mean that you cannot give a brother captain with a th/ss a th from the armory, or even a power weapon if this is true.or is it okay because they already have it as their wargear, and they are buying another out of the armory. Actually, it says, in reference to wargear, that no model may take the same item twice. There is no such restriction for weapons. numbe6- couldnt you give a GM another power weapon for a +1 attack also? (that is if my above question doesnt pertain) See discussion above. A GM's NFW "counts as" as Force Weapon. Therefore, the only way to get an extra attack is to have the GM wield a 2nd Force Weapon or a "normal" CCW. It's possible to read the DH SS as "counting as" a mundane CCW, so that is one way to give him a bonus melee attack. I suppose you could also replace the stormbolter with a Force Weapon and have it work that way, too.

Grand Master Tyrak Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 I suppose you could also replace the stormbolter with a Force Weapon and have it work that way, too. Force Weapons are Inquisitors Only. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157596-gn-thunder-hammer-s/page/2/#findComment-1845879 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennedy Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 number6- guess i should have read the `wargear` portion of my armory question as to how the NFW is counted as, back in post #16 of this thread( havent figured out how to quote portions of a post yet ), you stated that it would be considered a `power weapon`, and in post #28 you stated it counts as a `force weapon` and cannot gain the extra attack. could you clarify this for me please? gentlemanloser-null rods are also for inquisitors only-according to that little #1 next to it in the codex. although it would be nice to take it Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157596-gn-thunder-hammer-s/page/2/#findComment-1846161 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Master Tyrak Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 kennedy Posted Today, 07:59 PM as to how the NFW is counted as, back in post #16 of this thread( havent figured out how to quote portions of a post yet ), you stated that it would be considered a `power weapon`, and in post #28 you stated it counts as a `force weapon` and cannot gain the extra attack. could you clarify this for me please? All Nemesis Force Weapons give a +2 Str bonus. In addition, NFWs wielded by Justicars, Grey Knight Terminators and Brother-Captains count as power weapons. The NFW wielded by the Grey Knight Grand Master counts as a force weapon. So with a second power weapon it might be possible to gain an extra attack, but only if the NFW is wielded by a Justicar, GKT or Brother-Captain, since their NFW also counts as a power weapon. This trick would not work with the GKGM, since his NFW counts as a Force Weapon, and you cannot take a second force weapon (they are Inquisitors only).

Both in square brackets. I hope this helps! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/157596-gn-thunder-hammer-s/page/2/#findComment-1846887 Share on other sites More sharing options...
