I had a quick question which is most likely somewhat silly, but I'm new to this all ...

Possessed Chaos Space Marines have 1 attack listed in their profile (2 for Aspiring Champions), but they also list their weapons as Bolt pistol + Close Combat weapon.

Wouldn't this imply 2 attacks (1 for pistol, 1 for close combat)?  Then a Daemonic Mutation would give them 3 attacks? (4 for Aspiring Champions)

Having two single-handed weapons in close combat gives your model +1 Attack. Charging gives your model +1 Attack. Daemonic Mutation gives your model +1 Attack.

So if your model has 2 Attacks base, has Daemonic Mutation, two single-handed weapons, and is charging he would be making 5 Attacks in that round of combat.
