Feel free to move this if it belongs in a different forum, but I think this is the most correct one of the lot.

I'm trying to put a priest in my IG army who is wielding an eviscerator; however, per the games workshop website, the only "missionary" figures that they have are a missionary with a chainsword and a missionary with a plasma gun. While most of the time I just play local games where I can just say "Hey, the priest has an eviscerator," I play in tournaments and am worried about the issue of WYSIWYG; the eviscerator (for those who don't know) is a two handed chain sword that only priests can wield (at least per IG Codex). I don't want my character gimped because somebody says "Swords not two handed.... sorry."

Any ideas as to how to model a priest with bits, or should the model with the chainsword suffice?

Thanks for any help.

There's a specific Henchman from one of the Daemonhunters or Witchhunters boxed sets(or the Henchman blisters), that's a Priest with an Eviscerator. I'll try to find it.

There used to be a Daemon Hunters Inquisitor Retinue model with an Eviscerator. See if you can find someone with one or if a store still has the blister with one in it. Failing that, the method of a two-handed, double length plastic Chainsword always works, too.

It's on that page, but I can't find it in the store on UK, US, or anything...

May have to try to get a trade going for one or something.
