This is not a huge problem for me I was just wondering, can you use your one grenade attack against Monsterous creatures and normal infantry instead of using normal attacks?

I personally didn't think you could, because you had to use one of the weapons you are equiped with but I'm not positive.

This comes from the fact that my friend uses stickbombs and meltabombs against my wraithlord sometimes when he gets into close combat, I haven't been able to find anything about this in the rules and I would appreciate if anyone can answer this, my apologies if this is in the rules and I have missed it.

I did a search before posting this but couldn't find an answer I have looked through the rule book also and have not been able to find anything for or against this.

Thanks in advance for the help and sorry if this is a silly question.

Grenades can't be used against Infantry or Monstrous Creatures in the 40k rules. There are rules for using them on vehicles, and some more specialized rules for using them on vehicles with the type "Walker". Look in the rules for assaulting Walkers.

Exception: There is a special unit in Codex: Space Marines, which are Ultramarine Tyranid Hunters, who CAN use their grenades against Tyranids. I'd recommend double-checking that unit entry; maybe the phrasing indicates that they can use grenades against any Monstrous Creature. If so, that would allow that particular unit to use them on a Wraithlord, since he's a Monstrous Creature.

I can 't think of any other possibility within the 40k rules.

Thankyou for your help it is much appreciated.
