<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Khorne Marine : 2 Chainswords or Chainsword and Chainaxe?"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/69.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Khorne Marine : 2 Chainswords or Chainsword and Chainaxe? FAQs it's now confirmed that two chainswords equal +2 attacks!

So on Bezerkers we are looking at 4 S6 AP-1 and 2 S5 AP- attacks vs 8 S5 AP- attacks.

According to my limited mathhammer, it looks like 2 swords are around 20% worse against TEQs, and has little difference against MEQs.

I dont have the imperial or xenos book to see how it would work against GEQs in 8th... and I have no idea how rerolls etc would affect this.

What do you guys think? Sword and Axe or dual Swords?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/731382/9469406.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/731382/9469406.page GMT Khorne Marine : 2 Chainswords or Chainsword and Chainaxe?

How are you even getting those numbers? What is the unit size? What is even happening in this thread?

Anyways, you take a chainaxe and a chainsword on everyone but the champ, on the champ you take either a power axe or a power fist plus either a combi-weapon or a chainsword. Berzerkers, if they charge, get two rounds before the enemy gets to go once, so you take whatever gives you the most attacks, which is the above.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/731382/9469675.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/731382/9469675.page GMT Khorne Marine : 2 Chainswords or Chainsword and Chainaxe?

I am not sure what you mean about the numbers?

The bezerkers attack twice and have Str 5. With chain axe, that's +1S and AP -1 no? You get 4 attacks with the chain axe in total, since you attack twice, at S6 AP-1. You also get 1 bonus attack from a chainsword, so 2 attack in per round, again since you can attack twice.

While if you had two sword, you'd get two bonus attack, and fight twice per turn, so you'd get 8 S4 AP- attacks each round.

It does not matter though if they cannot get two chain axes. Sorry I did not have the index with me, was at work. Chainaxe and chainsword it is!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/731382/9470207.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/731382/9470207.page GMT
