GrandMagnus Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Hi brothers, I want to add a count-as Asmodai to my Guardians of the Covenant but while I was looking at his equipment I noticed he does not have a bolt pistol. Is this an errata or does he really not wield any firearms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isiah Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 As far as I remember he was given the bolt pistol in a subsequent faq. Cheers I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandMagnus Posted April 30, 2014 Author Share Posted April 30, 2014 Alright, thank you. I thought it seemed weird since all marine units are armed with a bolt pistol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnyocum Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Checking the new FAQ/Errata, and Asmodai does have a bolt pistol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain Lucifer Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Funny thing, his older version didn't have it either. Nor the power sword. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isiah Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Yes previous version did have bolt pistol. Cheers I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrandMagnus Posted May 1, 2014 Author Share Posted May 1, 2014 Okay, that is settled. Now to not start a new thread I have another question regarding the GW website: If I recall the deathwing box set allows you to mount one of these 3: command squad, a deathwing squad and a knight squad, right? Well have they changed that? Because Im looking at the website and they have on display a "deathwing terminator squad" box and a "Deathwing knight" box. But when I click on the Knights I get pictures of the Ravenwing black knights. I am honestly VERY confused right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aradiel Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 yes, the deathwing box is for the 3 versions. you can confirm that by checking the pics of the sprues. the bad link must be just gw being its usual eficient self Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SvenONE Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Bolt pistol only helps out his Crozius though, Blades of Reason are specialist weapon so you'll never benefit from the pistol for a +1A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandMagnus Posted May 1, 2014 Author Share Posted May 1, 2014 Yes, Im aware of that. I just needed to know it since I will be modelling a count-as Asmodai for the ETL and I want the equipment to be visual. And about the deathwing box problem I had, it turns out that Gw now have 3 different pages called "deathwing command squad", "deathwing terminator squad" and "deathwing knights squad" which are exactly the same box. Now they just separate them in 3 pages making everything extremely confusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SvenONE Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Not sure the bit you may use, but the sternguard/vanguard bolt pistols are a little more ornate than the others. Also, if I recall correctly, the veteran upgrade sprue has holstered bolt pistols. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandMagnus Posted May 1, 2014 Author Share Posted May 1, 2014 Yes I will be giving him a holstered bolt pistol because he will be wielding the crozius in one hand and a chain with hooks in the other (to represent the relic). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now they just separate them in 3 pages making everything extremely confusing. Yes, I noticed that too... to tell you the truth, I feel its just bad website design and a bit confusing. Chain with hooks... sounds like a fun conversion, keep us posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother dean Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 They (G-dubs) are trying to break everything down into each codex entry in the store.. So the kid looking for Deathwing Terminators wont be confused because they are in the Knights box... (it's also a sneaky way to get said kid to buy a $60 box when a $50 box of terminators will do just fine...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValourousHeart Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 The only confusion seems to be if you don't read the item description. And don't forget GW doesn't just want little Timmy's money. They want his aunt and uncle to buy him birthday gifts. Honestly this is no different than any other company that has their catalog cross referenced for easy searching. Come on guys, I know that the language of the internet is piss-n-moan-ese. But this is taking it a little far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandMagnus Posted May 2, 2014 Author Share Posted May 2, 2014 Dude, I was just confused because of the sudden change. I wasnt sure if they had changed it to 3 different boxes or it was still the same box and they had just made it easier to find depending on what you need. I understand GWs a company, Im not pissing and moaning, understood? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValourousHeart Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Dude relax. It was directed at the comments after yours that were deriding GW about greedy and bad website design. If this had been PP web site and a link was routing wrong, they would have notified the web master and gone on with their day. Not trolled an unaffiliated message board about it. But again my comment was directed at the posts after yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ValourousHeart Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 No worries, my comment was pretty snarky too. And I can see where it was ambiguous who I was directing toward. So I'm good if you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
