Weirdboy
Lets say I have a weird boy in a transport (trukk or wagon) and he gets a 'eadbanger. Does the resulting template nuke his accompanying squad in the transport, or have to go through the transport armor 1st?

Burna
Do Burna Boyz that switch to cutting flames for Power Attacks get +1 Attack in melee for having a close combat weapon?

From the GW FAQ:

Q. Does a Weirdboy embarked on a vehicle still
roll for his powers? If so, can you clarify what
happens in all cases?

A. ‘Eadbanger: Causes a Strength 6 hit on the
vehicle’s rear armour.

As for the Burnas, nope. The burna is not a single handed weapon, and thus does not confer a +1 A.

Do burnas even have a 2nd CCW anyway?

Not sure burnas have a 2-handed stipulation anymore and not like 2 handed matters much anyways...

But Burna Boyz don't actually *have* a second CCW so even if they were 1-handed they have nothing to combine it with.

Kommandos explicitly specify 'exchange choppa and slugga' so a kommando with a burna also doesn't have a second weapon to get +1A.

Now Big Meks are capable of getting a Burna + CCW, but since most people run them with a SAG or KFF, they will not have an additional CCW for the attack. But technically if you put him on a bike, you could give him a slugga and gain an extra attack... If you don't count the burna as 2-handed... which nothing says it is anymore.

Anywho, it is a pretty pointless exercise all around.

Sorry but this is incorrect. If you want to claim that, then Pistols are never defined as single handed either, nor are Normal CCW.

If a model has a Burna and a Pistol, and uses the Burna as a Power Weapon, it gets a bonus attack.

Not sure why you want us to but ok. I have a wierd boy in a transport (trukk or wagon) and he gets a 'eadbanger.

kaboom! goes the trukk (most likely)
