I am new to AOS so forgive me if this is a dumb question.

If I have a character with more than one "weapon" can my opponent remove models in order to be immune to hits from the second (or subsequent weapon(s)?

Example Stormcast Lord Celestant on a Dracoth is in combat with 2 members of a 30 man unit. If he kills two of them with is axe/hammer/backhand of sigmar can his mount not attack? What is two members of a unit have two different weapons, can your opponent just pull casualties from in front of the guy with the second weapon to attack?

Thank you for your help.

You opponent allocates wounds only after your entire unit has completed all of its attacks. So in your example, they couldn't remove those models to avoid the Dracoth's attacks because rider and mount are in the same unit so casualty removal doesn't kick in until both of them have fought.

Note that this is how each attack sequence is resolved. If an ability lets a unit pile in and attack twice in a single combat phase, they're resolved totally separately, so your opponent could try some casualty removal shenanigans before your second go round. Similarly, another unit attacking in the same phase could be cleverly stranded by picking allocating wounds closest to them. But that's what pile in moves are for!

So no, basically. Page 7 of the AoS rule sheet covers the procedure for allocating wounds.
