in the chaos daemon codex screamers can swap their normal 3 attacks at str 4 for one str5 ap 2 attack but the wording says you may swap out your normal attacks for 1 str5 ap2 attack but plus 1 attack on the charge is not a normal attack so does this mean you swap your 3 base str4 attacks for 1 str5 ap2 attack and then get a bonus attack for charging?

Shouldn't this be in YMDC?

You substitute all of your normal cc attacks for a single attack. Since the charging attack is a modifier (just like the special attack), the order of operations would apply:
3+1 (set to 1)=1 attack.

thought the charge bonus is not a normal attack as it states in the codex all normal attacks swapped for one but the charge is an addition what you only get when charging so it is not a normal attack

It is a modifier to your attacks characteristic.
So:
Normal: A3
Charging A4 (3+1)
Lampreys Bite: A1 (set modifier applies last).

Because Screamers aren't good enough already?

daemons can have good units but hey are not op at all

You are quite silly.

I wouldn't call daemons OP, except for anything involving 2++ with re-rolls. But your already getting an S5 AP2 attack, asking for double that is just greedy IMO

at ws 3 they are hitting the majority of things on a 4+ anyway so im not moaning just wandered about something i wasnt sure about you turned it to me being greedy anyway a 360 degree torrent str 6 ap 3 flamer is op or grav weaponary in most cases is op 2 str 5 ap 2 hits at ws 3 isnt really me being greedy js
