So what does everyone think? Are they balanced? Would you play against these rules? Are they fluffy? Any and all feedback appreciated.

Never seen a Combi-pistol before (although, now I want to...), Terminators of all stripes are normally given storm/combi bolters instead of pistols, is the intent here +1A for two CCW's?

AP 2 weapons that are not Unwieldy are particularly potent, especially with Force. Is it's worth taken into account for the points cost?

What about an army lead by a Sorcerer? Or just DP's & Ahriman?

Not quite sure what you mean here, elaborate?

Cool rule
They look fun and fluffy to me, no idea about balance though!
