Thallax weapon load out

[Trokair]

I finally got the (Dark)Mech book and the Battle group.

 

Looking at the sprue in person the only Thallax special weapon I can see is the Multi-Melta, while in the book it lists the phased plasma-fusil.

Is this model  vs rules discrepancy or am I being blind and not seeing the plasma Thallax on the sprue (and if the later does this mean we are expecting Thallax to get MM rule/option down the line)?

I think it might just be an ugly plasma, if that's possible. 

 

 

The real head scratcher is when you get to the myrmidon destructors. the book say a or b weapon options but the instruction tell you to put both.

I had not noticed that, that is wired.

 

So does that mean that at army creation you pick one and have it all game, or whenever you pick the unit to shoot you pick one for that turn?

Ruleswise you pick a or b, but the problem is you could in theory mix them, its just that the wysiwyg is pretty weird unless ones is cool with modelling 2 identical models on the same base and have half volkite half c beam, it just looks sorta rough. I think though that, dude to the c beam just being the better choice imo, most will just run them all as c beam. 

 

It's definitely weird tho, like the thallax just have both weapons per base comparatively.
