Captains, Storm Shields and Lightning Claws

[weasleybob]

I wanted to take a Space Marines Captain with a Lightning Claw and Storm Shield (I took the claw since it was the same points as the Sword but with re-rolls to wound). Is this allowed by the rules? The claw and shield come under the same option but it says "he may swap his bolt pistol and/or chainsword with:".

 

thanks for any help :D

Yes you can. They just lumped them together because they cost the same points.

The key is 'he may swap his bolt pistol and/or chainsword with'.

 

So it says and/or. So you can swap both his weapons for the choices listed below. So you can swap them both out for a storm shield and lightning claw.

 

So in short, yes, it is allowed by the rules.

 

EDIT: Seahawk beat me to it.
