They only have thebolt pistol to trade?

Lucien Eilam Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 No, Sergeants can exchange their boltgun for a chainsword for free. Read the unit entries.

Stormshadow Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 Yes i know, but doesn't this go against the fundamentals of buying upgrades? You buy everything at the same time? To prevent illegal opting in previous codex's/editions? I rely rely hope that i am wrong and you are right! But why couldn't GW just say that he came with a pistol and ccw instead of gun and ccw...

Stupid GW The specifically added in the bolt pistol to chainsword option for bikers so no. For Codex Space Marine it is perfectly legal.

Lysere Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Hmm... I hope you are right. The only real rule about buying upgrades is that models that have different names (such as the apothecary) can not buy upgrades that would conflict with his own weapon choices. You can't give him a plasma gun and then upgrade because then you would have an illegal choice. If you so wanted to you could buy a thunder hammer and then replace that with a relic. You never would but you could.

You can buy any upgrade, and as long as another option allows you to trade that out for another weapon it's fine. An Apothecary in a command squad is not a veteran so if he buys something as a "veteran" then upgrades to an apothecary he would now be illegal because apothecaries are not allowed access to most command squad upgrades. A sergeant however always has the same options regardless of weapons he holds. Again GW faq'd bikes to be able to trade bolt pistols for chainswords just so they were able to take their upgrades.

Disruptor_fe404 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Ah, true. This isn't about order of operations at all! What a relief.

Grey Mage Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Order of operations works for wargear. It doesnt work for profile changes. GWs been fairly consistent about that.
