Vanguard Vets do have the advantage of being able to assault from deep strike, iirc. Fun when coupled with a GK Librarian (Summoning).

The axe chained to his wrist is a Black Templar one, while the other I think is an assault marine one.

The right hand axe is from the BT upgrade sprue. The left hand axe is from the assault marine sprue (it's for the sergent upgrade).
