Hello Dakka!

Just thinking of purchasing some scouts and equipping all the guys with combat blades. Does the normal scout box come with enough combat blades and bolt pistols to do this or do I have to scrape together parts from my bitz box?

Thanks in advance

You get five each of blade+pistol, bolter, shotgun.

There's also a couple of bits for a sarge and the heavy bolter.

Not quite right.

You get 4 each of the shotgun and bolter.
1 heavy bolter
4 combat blades and silenced bolt pistols for the scouts
1 chainsword and non-silenced bolt pistol for the Sergeant.

Thanks for your answers!

I just realized...I then assume that additional weapons options for the sergeant, like power weapon and powerfist are not in some way included? I planned to give the Sarge a powerfist for some tankbusting.

Nope, you would need to do some converting for other options.

Everything needs to be converted for the Scouts, and they're not the most conversion friendly kits out there, despite being plastic.

The Snipers are worse.
