tubo10 Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Hi. this may sound like a really stupid question, but if you upgrade an ironclad to have a chainfist, does he use it like a powefist or use it as Dread CC weapon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesI Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 By RAW, it is a chainfist, so it fights at initiative 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty the Pyro Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 It is a a chainfist, thus its a chainfist. I1 2d6 pen vs vehicles, S10 ignors armor. Due to specific rules for walkers it will still confer the extra attack, and you may choose which special weapon to use, thus against regulare infantry you can use the standard DCCW for the I4 as long as it has not recieved a weapon destroyed result or was replaced with the huricane bolters.

Cedric Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 It's not a stupid question, it has been asked since the arrival of C:SM. The chainfist is not a DCCW. It behaves exactly as explained in the weapons section of the codex. Perhaps some further errata will change it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vedius Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I see this was finally address in version 1.2 of the Space Marines FAQ... It IS a DCCW with 2D6 for armour penetration... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkGuard Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I see this was finally address in version 1.2 of the Space Marines FAQ...It IS a DCCW with 2D6 for armour penetration... Very true, here's the entry for those who want to see it. Page 97 – Wargear, ChainfistChange to “See the Terminator entry on page 64. Note that a chainfist on an Ironclad Dreadnought is a Dreadnought close combat weapon that rolls 2D6 for armour penetration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
