Do Flayed Ones get an extra attack for it's 2 "Claw(s)" and dose a wraith get and extra attack for "Claws and Barbed Tail"?

Sorry if i sound like a noob lol

**Maelstrom808**

I play mine as no +1 as they are never defined as seperate CCWS and if you look at the number of attacks in the profiles, these weapons seem to already have been taken into account.

**daniel80000**

Oh ok, thank you

**WarOne**

It may be a bit confusing because the Necron codex is third edition and current rules account for fifth edition, so unless errata confirms they get some extra attacks or they have a clearly defined dual weapon they are wielding (like two knives or a pistol and a sword, ect), consider the profile as is for the number of attacks they get as explained by Maelstrom808.

**daniel80000**

Ok, cool

**Darkvoidof40k**

Yes, what they said. Because "claws" and "barbed tail" aren't actually defined as close-combat weapons - essentially they don't have any affect on the game.

Im counting down dude Im counting down...the fashion police are beginning to stir again...many unfashionable crimes have been committed in their absence...

Im just pointing out (as many of us already know) that if you arent SM then you can never count on having an up to date codex...

I wish they would update ALL their armies before they rewrote the core rules again!!

EDIT: Spelling

**nosferatu1001**

They are; they just needed to get the core rules to a good enough state (5th ed) before they could freeze. They committed to updating ALL in print dexes before 6th ed, back when 5th was released.

Coming from GW that means as much as Nevile Chamberlain's "Peace in our Time" speech.
