Can Apothecaries take two weapons or does the Narthecium/Reductor take up one weapon spot?
 
#2 ·
The narthecanium is wargear so it doesnt, the reductor I think counts as a close combat weapon though. So I'd say the reductor takes up the slot for one weapon though with no codex on hand I have nothing to back that up just yet...8)

looking at the model I can see that one arm has a kind of chainsword attatced to his reductor.

It isn´t stated in the codex what it is but looking at the model I conclude that the reductor takes up one weapon slot leaving one open.

they are both items of wargear and as such do not count towards weapon limits
the reductor is such a short chainblade it's almost worthless for combat (it's designed to only just cut through power armour allowing the Apoth to get to the gene seed, and no deeper)

Bingo

Thanks everybody.
Another question:Can the Apothecary's Narthecium help when someone is wounded by Gets Hot? And can the Apothecary heal himself?
Yes it can be used in of those cases because in both cases it would be stopping a wound which required an armour save.

Can Apothecarys take a bolt pistol insted of a chain sword? Because the Reductor takes up one hand, so can the other hand weild a ranged weapon, such as the aformentioned bolt pistol? :wacko:
Squeaks, read the posts above you. Its been confirmed that the apothecaries chainsword does not take up a weapon slot for the model but can be used as one.

Well what i did for my models was to take some insperation from Logan Grimnar, (this was before Grey Knights had new models) i took a chainsword right hand and modified a bolt pistol to fit on the arm Gaurd/Wrist using green stuff and a little conversion it works really well.
