Really stupid question about "Wargear"

[hollerz]

Hi, I'm new to the game, and I'm confused already ;)

 

In the SW Codex for the Grey Hunters pack it says Wargear is:

 

Power armour

Close combat weapon

Bolt pistol

Bolter

Frag and krak grenades.

 

I don't know about yours, but my SW only have two hands, how can they carry a CCW, BP and Bolter, or do I just choose two of these?

 

And when your picking your options, for example if I wanted one of my GH to use a Plasma Gun, which one does it replace? My choice?

 

Thanks!

You wear them on your belt.

 

I have a glock 17 on my hip. Just in front of it, a magazine case. Behind my Glock is a can of mace. On the left is a light and sometimes something else. On the back is Hand cuffs( So other officers can also pull them if I am fighting).

 

I can carry my AR in my hands. With a one conect sling I can drop it if needed and pull the glock.

 

Marines use Magnetic locks in the fluff. Same thing thou. They have the gear around their waist. Pull what they needs when they need it.

 

If you look at the Mrine boxed sets they have some pistol holters on them as well.

Welcome to the Fang! Hope you enjoy a long and bountiful venture into the game as a Wolf.

 

For every model in the game, they are provided with a "standard loadout" of wargear items. It is assumed that this list of items are equipped at all times. Grey Hunters carry all the items you listed at all times, though you likely won't see them all represented, it is assumed that they are there (like when you make an online order for pizza and ask for extra cheese, there'll be a disclaimer that it's there despite not seeing it... >.> )

 

Frag and krak grenades used to be shown on models as standard grenade-like objects, but lately (possibly due to some Black Library novels) sometimes they're believed to be pellet or disc-like objects dispensed from a tube in your armor. Same can hold true for a ccw, it can potentially be sheathed in the armor somehow.

 

Whatever the case, you can model your Grey Hunters however you want, showing a bolter and bolt pistol held and a dagger at the hip or any variant.. or just show him holding a dagger. Regardless, it's assumed his bolter and pistol are still with him somewhere.

 

As to the plasma gun, it states on pg. 89 in the GH 'Options' that they "may replace his bolter with one of the following:"

Makes perfect sense now!

 

Thanks for the replies! :lol:
