Trevak Dal Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 I was reading in the codex that Tac squads have to take 10 men to gain access to even just a special weapon-is this right or some sort of mistake?

Trevak Dal Posted November 2, 2013 Author Share Posted November 2, 2013 Yes. Its one of the older marine codices and up until the dark angels dex all tac squads ware like that. But I am pretty sure I recall the 5th edition Vanilla dex allowing you a Special in a 5 man squad? Why do you have to go to 10 just to get a flamer/melta/plasma gun in a BA Tac Squad?

Unless I'm much mistaken, Tactical Squads in the 5th Edition Space Marine Codex were not allowed any special or heavy weapon unless the squad had 10 Space Marine in it.

Normal marines had this same restriction.

Zeller Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 As to why, that's the way the book was written. There is no other answer than that. Old book - old problems.
