Do icons replace war gear?


Recommended Posts

In the new CSM kit, the icons actually mount on the backpack, leaving the hands free for whatever normal equipment you want to give them.

 

But even if you're going with the older banner/standard style icons, they don't replace any other wargear.  If they did that would have been called out in the rules somewhere.  Theoretically all weapons and wargear should still be represented on the model in some way - perhaps a holstered pistol or a bolter on a shoulder strap or whatever - but in practice nobody worries about the exact armament of icon bearers, and just assumes they're armed like the majority of normal models in the squad.

 

With the exception of cases where you want to put the icon and some other upgrade on the same model, in which case both really should be represented if you can manage it.
