Adorondak Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Well, i just finished building a knight crusader and now have all the parts for a reaper chain blade sitting in my bits box and I got to thinking a gallant with two chain blades would look freaking awesome, especially with one of the rocket pods on top. I don't own the current Knight codex yet and so I was hoping someone could tell me if there is an option to run a gallant with the two chain blades? if there isn't, would any of you have a problem with someone running a gallant with two chain blades so long as he didn't try to do something stupid like claim an extra attack for having two CC weapons or the like?

Lucien Eilam Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 The Gallant already has an extra attack for having two melee weapons. It comes with a Reaper chainsword and a Thunderstrike gauntlet. There's no option to swap the gauntlet for a second chainsword. There wouldn't be any rules benefit in doing so, he'd just be losing the option of fighting with the gauntlet.

Flint13 Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 I would have zero problem with it. The gallant already gets that extra attack and dual wielding chainblades sound like the business!

Teetengee Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Yep I wouldn't have any issue with it. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311916-gallant-with-two-chain-blades/#findComment-4137529 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminus Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 I could see someone having an issue with it if they managed to destroy the "real" chainsword. Then they would want you attacking at I1 as per the gauntlet rules, rather than just keep on keeping on.

CommodusXIII Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Imperial Knights ignore Weapon Destroyed results, so that's not an issue.

jeffersonian000 Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Mount the two reapers side by side under twin heavy bolters, and you have an Acheron's chainfist.

Battybattybats Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I'd be fine with it. Either as a WYSIWYG two blades custom version or a counts-as gauntlet. Just so long as the rules it operates under are discussed and agreed to before the game and my opponent was happy to remind me where pertinent then it'd be cool.
