This model's been an Aspiring Champ in my CSM army for many years:



Am I correct that an AC (the champion of a CSM squad) can no longer take a power fist + combi-flamer, but only one or the other? I'm pretty sure that's how the armory page of C:CSM reads, though I suppose I'm hoping I'm missing an interaction between the unit entry and the armory that will somehow allow it. Especially now that combi-flamers are the business

Unrelated question, have we been told how much an Aspiring Sorcerer (the champion of a Rubric Marines squad) costs in matched points? I heard he's 20 in the French version of the codex but I believed un-errata'd still for English.

From the codex faq
Change the second heading to read:
‘One of the champion’s weapons can be chosen from the
following list:’

So yes, you can take a power fist and a combi flamer.


- I believe the aspiring sorcerer is the same cost as the other rubrics. No comment on french differences.

Snap! I missed that - also excite!

The index had the AS separate and lots of points (30?), so surprising to see him drop so far down in cost. But then he is a bit of a time bomb for his squad, with a peril making him go nuclear ...
