If I dont ask I wont know so here it goes.

I have a standard Terminator squad of 5 Ultramarines ( not assault squad). My Term sgt has a power sword and a Storm bolter the other Terms have just a storm bolter and powerfist. It states the troops have 2 attks and same for the Sgt.. How many attks do each of them get since I am assualting? I know I get +1 for the assault but I am sorta confused with the power fists and Storm bolters and the Sgt attacking with a storm bolter and Power Sword.

I think it is 3 attacks for Troop Terms and 4 attacks with the Sgt.

2 Attacks for Troop Terminators I figure that is cuz of the Storm Bolter and +1 for assualting
and the power fist just doubles Strength.

For the Sgt he should get 4 attacks +1 for assaulting and +1 for the sword and 2 attacks for the storm bolter.

Please if I am wrong can you explain it to me. Thanks everyone : )

You're close but not quite. All of them get the base 1 +1 for having Terminator Honors (part of wearing the armor)+1 for assaulting. They don't gain any melee attacks for having storm bolters. So that's how you get to the total attacks per figure.

They get 3 on the charge:
2 for the base attacks
1 for charging.

Storm bolters don't count as CCWs so they wont grant an extra attack. The only terminators that get 3 base are the dual LC ones.

wow I really complicated that lol thanks for setting me straight. You guys are great !!

So the Sgt powersword did not give me any extra attacks just the +2 for Terms and +1 for assault

Not technically true. Terminators with dual LCs get 2 base, +1 for charging, +1 for wielding two of the same special weapon.

Nope, the Sarge would have to have another CCW, such as a pistol, in order to gain an attack.

The Term Sgt that is assaulting has a powersword and a storm bolter I know the storm bolter has nothing to do in CC now thanks for the ruling, but does the Power Sword add to the attack since it is a Power Weapon. You said 1 for base +1 for Terminator Honor and +1 for charge but does the Sgt get another +1 for having the PowerSword ?

Is it still just 3 attacks

or 4 for having the powersword

Thanks again, just want to get it straight.

Its just 3 attacks. To gain an additional attack for 2 CCWs you would have to, well.. have 2 ccws!

Thanks everyone : )
I see that now don't know why I did not catch it earilier guess I was use to my Tactial Squad of SM Sgt using 4 attacks in an assault. woot : ) Damn pistol lol.

A power sword all by its self only gives you the benefit of you cc attacks ignoring armor saves. Number of attacks only get buffed by equipped weapons if you have a pair of ccws or a pistol and a ccw.
