DominicJ Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Was really proud, I converted my black reach dread in to a multi melta / melta tank hunting god. And then checked the points, and realised I can't do that... Grrrr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Dallo Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 That's a shame. I'm guessing the melta is underslung on the CCW? You could swap the multi melta for a frag cannon, if you have one spare from making a DC/librarian dreadnought, and run it as a Furioso with melta and frag cannon, which I believe is still legal. If you haven't glued the arms on (never glue the arms on dreads) you'll notice that the arm plug on the Black Reach dreadnought is smaller than the connecting hole on all other dread weaponry. (Stupid design decision ) This means that the frag cannon won't stay on from friction alone, so some blu-tac or similar will hold it, but allow you to swap the weapons out. Hope this helps, and better luck converting in future. Dallo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DominicJ Posted February 7, 2015 Author Share Posted February 7, 2015 My Fury has frag and heavy flamer Both the fury and the Death can have dual template Nothing (dredwise) can have dual melta which is a pain. Either two fists and two melta guns or multi melta and fist / melta gun would rock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenith Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Yes. Since the loss of the magna grapple as a weapon, I run my furiosos with heavy flamers. 2 S8 weapons is good, but just one doesnt really cut it. However in the right place, a (heavy) flamer is a game changing weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusktiger Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Nothing (dredwise) can have dual melta which is a pain. Either two fists and two melta guns or multi melta and fist / melta gun would rock not in Codex: Blood Angels, no. but if you play an allied force of C:SM, you can field a Contemptor Dreadnought, which is allowed to first replace its stock TL Heavy Bolter arm with a Multi-Melta for free. and then it can replace the Power fist with storm bolter with another Multi-Melta for free. plus you gain the benefits of having an Invul Save against shots against it as well.

Yea, but then it has no arms for punching things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
