Odd question here was looking at the new codex for Chaos and noticed that some of the wargear is a little odd for the champions.

The one I was wanting to ask about was the Terminator Champion. In the list power fists cost 7 points but for a champion its costs 22 points. Now can I purchase the power fist in the list that says "any Chaos Terminator may choose to replace with one of the following" now does that mean the champ too or not? It just doesn't make much sense to me that you have to spend that much more for a champ weapon vs a regular weapon.

He is a chaos terminator so he buys it at the price listed under the options instead of the wargear.

This is incorrect in every way. The Terminator Champion has a distinct statline (technically) and thus is NOT technically a Chaos Terminator. It specifies only Chaos Terminators may purchase the fist at the lower price. The Champion explicitly selects only from the Terminator wargear list. Note the difference in language between the options like 7 point fists and the icons. The Icon says 'any model' and this means that either the Chaos Terminators or the Terminator Champion may take it. However, where it says Chaos Terminator, this excludes the champion. This language is present for 7 point power fists.

This.

It's spelled out quite clearly. The champion ends up paying a premium for being able to take a different CCW AND being able to carry a combi.
