I just looked over the DA codex again to make sure, and it seems the only infantry units that don't have bolt pistols, are terminators, and special characters.

I think the kids at my FLGS are scared of me.



Perhaps it's the mask?

it`s a nice anecdote.
Made me smile.

Great story - thanks!

;-)

Oh - and LOL@Cryonicleech - the kid was right (as Hellfury - AKA Rimmer said).

DA and regular SM all have bolt pistols. Didn't he just show you the codex? LOL - you sound like TFG.

While the tantrum was probably...awkward...it does sound like you made a bad call and set him off in the first place.

What's with that Space Marines go first crap though?

In the pamphlet included in the AOBR box about how to play an intro game it does indeed say that the Space Marines go first........when played an intro game following the rules presented in the pamphlet.

I once played this guy who tried to claim that my marines didn't have bolt pistols. Which was complete crap because I did NOT want to get charged by 30 ork boyz.

Then they must be awesome-sauce cause all the Dark Angels infantry carry bolt pistols as a side-arm.

Soooo both the kid and Hellfury are right.

But I won't point and laugh, that's just mean.
