Deathwatch Start Collecting Box

[BloodWolves]

Hey, just wondering here is it possible to make 2 Veterans with Frag Cannons and 2 Veterans with Infernus Heavy Bolters? Are there enough arm pieces or will I have to modify some?

[Black Knight]

For every Kill Team there is one of each and I believe the Start Collecting has two Kill Teams in it.

Like Black_Knight said, the kill team kit of five veterans has 1x of each of stalker boltgun, infernus, and frag.

[BloodWolves]

Do you have enough arms to equip both the frag cannon and infernus HB or do you have to pick 1 or the other

[TheBigAristotle]

I know this is out of necessity, but man is the Infernus inferior in every way to the DWFC

[MadEdric]

You have enough weapons and associated arms to make two of each heavy weapon

[BloodWolves]

Thank You

Except in one way - can't use the Hellfire stratagem on a frag cannon.

The one thing that kills me about the starter box, and touched on by another thread is the complete lack of chainswords in it.

Do you now allocate multi hit weapons to each model in range? How does the Hellfire work now, is it mortal wounds spread or do you have to allocate to a single model? Ill need to look at the whole book when I get it but I think with the reduced models in this game, the high strength weapons are a little wasted, so the Heavy Bolter is better at range than the frag cannon but Dam does the Frag cannon just destroy the heavy flamer at 8".

[MadEdric]

You fire the Hellfire round once, at one unit. If you hit, you inflict 1-3 mortal wounds. Since mortal wounds are applied one at a time, you could possibly kill three models in a unit (provided they are 1 wound each). Regualr multi-wound weapons are resolved model by model, so the poor model that takes the melta shot is eating all 1-6 wounds it gives. He dead or really really dead.

I like to have a heavy bolter with my stalker vets, range is nearly equal, and the opportunity to use it for the Hell Fire Round stratagem.

Frag cannons are for my close up squads, like the storm bolter squad and my choppy squad. Any squad I can see getting in close will usually take one frag cannon.

Different weapons for different roles.

I know how you feel.

There is a spell to replace smite in KT just in case you were wondering .

[Black Knight]

I was just wondering how mortal wounds and multi-hit weapons work in KT but its another subject.

[BLACK BLΠFLY]

Indeed.

[BloodWolves]

Haha oh dont worry.. I was asking in regards to KT.
