Hiya, I have some questions about 40k.


1) Can power sword + plasma pistol get the +1 attack bonus like the none special counterpart?

1). Yes. 1 special ccw* (like a power weapon) + pistol or normal ccw gives +1A.

*Unless that special ccw is a powerfist/claw, lightning claw or thunderhammer.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.

That is not dead which can eternal lie ...

So the powerfist claw lightening claw are like... special special weapon?

And since powerfist cannot benefit bonus attack, should i give them the special pistol?

Well it all depends. Frequently the model that can take a powerfist is also the only model that can take a special pistol. In that case you take the special pistol because of the benefits it brings. But frequently you may give the powerfist armed model a two handed ranged weapon as the model will not get an extra attack from a pistol.

Thank you, I guess the relentless rule helps with the 2 hd range weapon as well.

Not necessarily. Relentless helps with Rapid Fire and Heavy Weapons. There are quite a few 2-handed ranged weapons that are assault weapons.

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.
