Hello I have found they joy of using assault cannons since in this edition wolf guards in terminator armour can effectivly lead grey hunters on foot. I find assault cannons better than flamers and cyclones simply because the amount of fire kills. It does the trick for me.

But I cannot figure out what to have as a secondary weapon for such a fellow, what do dakka say?

Keep him cheap with the power sword if he's tanking, or give him a chain fist if he's in the middle of the pack.

It all depends where this dude is going. Just asking what weapon to put on him is like asking what load out works best for long fangs. You need to base this question on what this models role will be in your list. That being said, i find that this guy is best left cheap considering you already are paying 45 additional points as it is on a 1 wound model. Just one unlucky roll and all those points go to waste. If he is in a GH unit, id keep the Power weapon. You can change it up if you need an axe for ap 2 or keep the sword to strike first. once again this depends on his role. If he is in long fangs id also keep the PW. If you plan on placing him in a term squad then i may consider a PF for him and placing him behind the other models because i assume you will have an SS or 2 in front to soak up fire.

If he is heading up your GHs I would leave him with the power weapon and put the fist in the pack.

Keep him cheap, kit him with a power weapon that comes as standard.
