Elric the Silvercoat Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 If I read the Pistol rule correctly I can shoot a pistol in addition to another weapon. Example if I am within 12" of a enemy unit my Tactical Marines can rapid fire their boltgun and then also fire the bolt pistol. I am checking if I am reading this right or am I going crazy?

thade Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 If I read the Pistol rule correctly I can shoot a pistol in addition to another weapon. You did not read the Pistol rule correctly. Pistols allow a single 12" shot, S4 AP5; in addition, they provide an offhand bonus in an assault (+1 A). That's all they do. Example if I am within 12" of a enemy unit my Tactical Marines can rapid fire their boltgun and then also fire the bolt pistol. No, they definitely cannot do this. I am checking if I am reading this right or am I going crazy? I'm not really qualified to comment on this. However, I believe you are in fact going crazy. Just me though. (Citation needed.)
