I'm quite new (ish) to the rules though I know a lot about Spess Mehreens so, does each person get the +1 attack for assaulting with a Relic Blade?

If you assault you gain +1 attack for assaulting, whatever youre holding.

Okay thanks for the help

unles the assaulted unit has defensive grenades or similar special rules, you always get +1(sometimes more depending on specific Special rules) attack when you charge.

The relic blade has a special rule that you can never gain a bonus attack when paired with another close combat weapon(of any type); this bonus attack(when available) is cumulative with, and separate from the Charging bonus attack(It occurs every round of combat not just the one in which you charge, it can also be negated by certain special rules).

KK and Nos have it correct, its in the BRB P.37 if you need a reference page to re-read.

By the way what is a "Spess Mehreens" ?

Basically, you can get a +1 bonus attack for having 2 close combat weapons, and/or on the turn that you charge into an assault. Basically, having a relic blade means you can never gain the bonus for having two close combat weapons. You still get +1 attack for charging into combat, relic blade or no relic blade

I think he means "space marine".

Well that is just silly, OP please re-read the forum rules and make your posts as clear as possible, some Dakkanoughts speak English as a second language.

... You've never seen it written that way DR? Usually I see "spez" instead of "spess"

Never seen it that way, it just seems odd.

I thought he was trying to say Specimen, I was wondering what he meant by that.

Regardless of what he meant, he should make his language clearer for the people here that speak English as a second language.

it is from a youtube cartoon, using/poking fun at audio from the Dawn of war games.

You will also often see rhinos referred to as "Metal Bawkses" from the same/similar video(s).
