Karsus Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Hi all, the rulebook says that combi-weapons are bolter+melta/plasma/etc, and WG (TDA or not) can get that weapon. However, TDA WGs have storm bolter as their base weapon. So, if I upgrade TDA WG's storm bolter with combi-weapon, then I get bolter+whatever it is with rapid fire rule? Haven't seen any TDA units using bolter and got confused.

Grey Mage Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Its definitely a bolter with a combi-element. You cant rapid-fire a meltagun however, or a flamer, even if it is part of a combi-weapon. So yeah, Stormbolter OR a combiweapon, not both. Wich is better, and cheaper, than chaos has it- they also get combi-weapons BTW.

Karsus Posted June 4, 2010 Author Share Posted June 4, 2010 Can I glue a meltagun-head on storm bolter and argue that it's combi-melta? kinda nonsense, but I haven't seen any bolter bitz for terminators and I cannot convert PA bolters to TDA bolters (size difference!)

Wispy Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 how you do the conversion is up to you. I'd say a storm bolter with meltagun bits on it can be nothing but a combi-melta.

Actually... umm... about half my combi-meltas are exactly that.

The_Betrayed_Spacewolf Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 same is true with me. before they were stormbolters they were combi bolters so you're already on the right track Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/203304-tda-wg-combi-weapon-storm-bolter-or-normal-bolter/#findComment-2423517 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paladus Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 It would be awesome to have combi storm bolters on terminators. But as said before i think that only the basic bolter can be combi. And even so they would not rapid fire. Sorry. As a matter of fact i was playing against some terminators yesterday and i vividly remember that they were combi-bolters.

Grey Mage Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Welcome to the B+C Paladius, your spot on. Do you play SWs, or are you just hear for the ale?

commander alexander Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Do you play SWs, are are you just hear for the ale? I don't know if you realize it, but this, this was priceless <_< Some of what you guys are saying, I'm not quite understanding. So, just to make sure you are all understanding; -Terminators are Relentless, meaning they can fire any weapons they have after moving and assault. -Combi-Bolters are bolters with one use special weapons attached.
