Twin-linked Flamers: No rules for them, should I assume they work like the Immolator's twin-linked heavy flamer (2 hits for each model covered)?

Escape Mechanism: Does any wargear remain on the pilot model?  Or is it "equipped with a pulse pistol only" and only a pulse pistol?  Clearly the Battlesuit Weapon/Support Stems are gone.  Stupid Black Gobbo.

Twin-linked template weapons are explained on page 31 of the rulebook.

"equipped with a pulse pistol only" seems pretty clear...

A Flamer is a template weapon. P31 in the rule book is that a twin-linked template weapon can re-roll wound rolls and armor penetration rolls. Nothing in the codex to change that, unlike the immolator which has its own specific rules.

The escape mechanism, that is how I read it as well. "it is equipped with only a pulse pistol". So I'd go that all wargear is lost and the pilot has a pulse pistol, the whole pulse pistol, and nothing but the pulse pistol.

Right, thanks all. That's what I thought for the mechanism. Flamers was a great big "duh" on my part.

That's not how the Immolator's TL Heavy Flamers work. You reroll fails to wound. :p
