But it's all a fun dilemma when you use the model in a WYSIWG game. In other games, I would say that he uses the codex rules... brother_artemis January 30th, 2005, 11:09 I was thinking that it might have just been to concept model, but also, Why would the great chaplain cassius only have but a bolt pistol? he's served the ultramarines well, give him an earthshaker cannon! lol only jokin, they could have at least given him something worth using, like a combi weapon, or master crafted? Dogma February 3rd, 2005, 01:39 No-one knows for sure why they made the Combi-Flamer model, maybe just an interim rules adjustment... The original models on the release at my local GW were the "Combi-Flamer" models, until about lunchtime - when someone pointed out the rules discrepancy... (I bought one - just for the fact that it's a cool bit of mistakage!) brother_artemis February 3rd, 2005, 18:01 grrrrrr i liked the flamer bit :) , i bought mine on the day it came out but i went just before it closed, maybe it was taken down aswell? I wonder if advance orders got the combi flamer? answers on a postcard from anybody who got it on advance order please |
