Assimilate: If this weapon's close combat attacks cause an enemy model to be removed as a casualty, the model equipped with the Maw claws gain's the preferred enemy special rule against all unit's chosen from the same codex as the model removed as a casualty.
Preferred enemy rule: A unit that contains at least 1 model with this special rule re-rolls failed to Hit and to Wound rolls of a 1 if attacking it's preferred enemy.
So... You put this on a Prime, he kills an enemy model and the unit that he is with (as he is an IC) gain's the preferred enemy rule?

Yes that is correct not sure the question. You've stated the rule and then just restated it. Am I missing something?

He stated the Assimilate rule that gives PE to the user of the weapon and then stated the PE rule which references the whole unit gaining said rule if 1 model in the unit has it.

Exactly he stated that he knew how the rules worked and then asked if that's how the rule works.

Yep, like many would would, when uncertain they had correctly interpreted something.

Just double checking
I was unsure as I heard some people state that this piece of wargear only refer's to the person himself.
I'm also thinking it is a combo that some people are over looking a little.. something like a Prime + Claws + outflanking Hormagaunt's or Genestealer's. Can a Prime also take a Lash Whip? because then he would strike first, kill something and everyone that strike's after him gain's PE for there attacks.

You have to attack with the Maw-Claws to benefit from Assimilate, so that tactic won't work.

I have a peanut allergy. It's really inconsiderate.

It's in the rule. You have to use the Maw to get the kill. Lashwhip can only be used with the bonesword as they are a set.
