perfectionist Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Hi all, I was going to pimp my tactical squad since I finished assembly and painting of the basic guys with their weapons. So basically I am now going to stick grenades, pouches and thelike to them. However there is 1 bit that i have no idea what it is supposed to be, so maybe you can help me? To make matters easier.... I don't have a picture of the bit either :S The bit does look quite a bit like a pair of nunchucks and I do have 2 of them (however it is quite possible that 1 comes with the SM Tac set and 1 with the SM assault marine set) Cheers, Perfectionist Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/206049-questions-regarding-a-bit/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
rat of vengence Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 I think it is like a pair of scroll tubes, or reliquae or something. I like the idea of nunchucks though. :) RoV Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/206049-questions-regarding-a-bit/#findComment-2457744 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CainTheHunter Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Yeah, they are scroll tubes, but when I saw them for the first time my instant thought was - what da... - nunchaks???

chromedog Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 They are scroll cases. Chaplains occasionally have them for holding copies of the litanies they read to their battle brethren before battle. The more devout brothers might also have them (oaths taken or whatever).

WingsOfTheFalcon Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Those tend to linger in the bottom of my bitz box, not only are they massive, but they sit at a wierd angle when attached to the waist. Not a massive fan. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/206049-questions-regarding-a-bit/#findComment-2457881 Share on other sites More sharing options...
perfectionist Posted July 9, 2010 Author Share Posted July 9, 2010 Thanks for all the quick answers! My marines are not that devout, so I think I'll leave em off. On a second thought sitting in a rhino for hours and hours to get to your objective might get a bit boring, so instead of litanies, maybe they can hold the latest edition of "playMarine" or something...
