Tactical Squad / Grey hunter

[MogLord]

I started to assemble my Space Wolves army then a question came up:

 

How should i equip my Grey Hunter Squads ( Tactical Squad ) ?

 

Bolter or Boltpistol and Chainsword ?

 

Thanks for sharing your insight with me.

Oh Moglord, you silly pup! :P

 

Grey Hunters have both weapon choices built in, so don't worry!

[MogLord]

No...i mean do you have a bolter on your model or pistol and sword?

As grey hunters are equipped with bolters, bolt pistols and chainswords for standard, you should be able to model them however you want, either

• bolters
  
• bolt pistols and swords
  
• bolt pistol and bolter
  
• bolter and chainsword
  

Its special weapons that need to be modelled, so that a modelled flamer isn't a power fist, and midgame you reveal it to your opponent.

Pg 47 talks a bit about WYSIWYG. I would model it with bolter and chainsword, as that's what grey hunters used to have before.

It's worth noting that puppies traditionally are modeled with bolter+chainsword(CCW), because they used to have true grit.
