What I want to know is why do space marine scout bikers have Shotguns (assult 2 AP -) when they have TWIN-LINKED Bolters (rapid fire, AP 5)on a relentless model (the bike)? Why would you ever shoot the shotgun? Even if you use the upgrade Astartes Grenade Launcher (still rapid fire!), the shotgun is inferior due to the bike's Relentless special rule. What am I not getting?
