Castellan Blackmane Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Hey guys, could do with a hand and I guess this is where to ask. Can command squad company champions and apothecaries take special weapons? The company champion only replaces his close combat weapon and the special weapons don't replace anything so am I just being dense or can it be done? And the apothecary upgrade doesn't replace anything. I'm fairly confident that the fact that they take the specials and they don't replace anything then they can. Thoughts?

JeffTibbetts Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Just reread and it looks like you're right. I don't see any reason why you couldn't give them other equipment.

Lucien Eilam Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Nope, it says "any Veteran" not "any model". The specialists are no longer Veterans.

Dam13n Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 This has been asked before: Here. I've now added this to the OR Index as it's a question that gets asked fairly regularly.

Jolemai Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 For what it's worth, in the latest BA Codex a Command Squad comes with a Champion, Apothecary and three Veterans as standard which eliminates the "confusion" regarding the upgrades to this squad. This precedent is not only RAI but it may be a sign of things to come for future Imperial Space Marine codices.
