I don't have any of the FW HH books. I just read the novels (in publication order), and am only up to Prospero Burns. I just can't justify the expense of the HH books when I'll never actually field an HH army. Plus, I hate Mk 1-3 power armor :P.<br /><br />Ultramarines do have some interesting TheRhinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13199708616977903957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401134511366147394.post-71142517545021503992014-08-23T05:25:27.679-04:002014-08-23T05:25:27.679-04:00I play the Carcharodons, and I don't know if i...I play the Carcharodons, and I don't know if it's because I started playing them that I noticed, but they seem to be snowballing in popularity. Even FW seems to like them a lot, and decided to hint at a lot of their stuff and basically all but confirm their RG geneseed in the third Horus Heresy book they released, as well as taking a lot of the tribal themes and tattoos and transferring Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17901708027893154870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401134511366147394.post-26582122670193502672014-08-22T08:36:13.553-04:002014-08-22T08:36:13.553-04:00Is it bad that I can't remember how the meltag...Is it bad that I can't remember how the meltagun and bolter match up in terms of length and height? I haven't built a meltagunner in what feels like years.

You could model it as a larger combi-weapon using a full sized meltagun instead of a single shot one. Connect them side by side with a stormbolter style grip, or you could build something with a heavy weapon style grip to it.

I did a 9-man Honour Guard a while back and made sure every model had his power weapon, bolt pitstol, and bolter modeled either in-hand or sheathed. <br />I'll probably end up with the bolter stowed and the meltagun in-hand.

The reason you don't see this often is because only command squads can have both bolter and special weapon while other marines are usually required to swap their bolter for the meltagun as per the Special Weapons List, with no option to trade their bolt pistol in for another bolter. You lose 1A, but the melta shot on the charge is more Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17901708027893154870noreply@blogger.com
