Mr_I_am_Hungry Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 So all named ICs have a given wargear. In many cases that's special gear which is just better, but some have normal type gear. Could a character trade that wargear for different? For example could Pedro Cantor trade out his power fist to get something to make use of his Init 5?

Mr_I_am_Hungry Posted September 28, 2009 Author Share Posted September 28, 2009 But in the situation of Cantor he is a Chapter master, so could he take a chapter masters wargear at cost?

Kurasuke Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 No. Special characters must be taken as is. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/179760-wargear-options-for-ic/#findComment-2127724 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chengar Qordath Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 No. Special characters must be taken as is. Calgar and Khan do have a single upgrade option listed in their profiles in the army list, but they're the exception that proves the rule; unless a special character has a specfic equipment option listed in their entry they can only be taken exactly as is.

Could a character trade that wargear for different? For example could Pedro Cantor trade out his power fist to get something to make use of his Init 5? Unfortunately named IC's (and upgrade characters) are restricted to the equipment they have, and any options presented in thier listing. The only exception possibly being for an upgrade character (who is part of the squad), an upgrade that may be applied to any/all the models in it.

Frogstaff Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 In fact, don't most of their entries state that they cannot have their wargear altered?

Chengar Qordath Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 In fact, don't most of their entries state that they cannot have their wargear altered? The entries for special characters entries in older codices that use armories do specifically mention that they must be taken as is. However, new-style codices don't always include that disclaimer since with the switch from an armory used by the entire list to individual unit options it's sufficient to simply not include any options in the character's entry.
