Well... I just want to know what do you Dakkaites think about the wording of options for the Deathwing and the Deathwing command squad.
It's difficult to determine if you are allowed, for example, to take a Narthecium if you also take TH/SS:
"One deathwing terminator can be upgraded to Apothecary replacing their power fist with a narthecium"
And:
"Any deathwing Terminators can replace all their weapons with" .... LCs or TH/SS
One could say that you can replace the Power fist with the Narthecium then swap "all your weapons" (the SB) with TH/SS.
Or, even worse... what about Cyclone Missile launcher? It is added to your weapons, but you have to "replace all their weapons" to get TH/SS. The procedure here is the same... can I replace my weapons with TH/SS and then add a CML?

I know this risks to get heated. I have no answers. But what I have is a carefully converted Apothecary with TH/SS and 2 hammernators with CML and I'm not going to leave them on the shelf or dismantle them if the rules do not say in a damn clear way that I cannot use them.

Best to wait until the 'Dex is actually released.

While I think this is the equivalent of putting your gentiles in a fire considering GW's policy of trade secrets. Look up threads about sanguinary noviate in BA honour guards.

Yup. Hard to have a discussion just yet.
