It says "Storm Bolter" in the Codex, I'm afraid, so it'll stay as a
Storm Bolter until it's Q&A'd in White Dwarf. All other units have
Combi-Bolters, though.

There is?

As far as I can see, the Scout Veteran Sergeant costs 26 points, not 39.
Are you sure you didn't give him an extra 13 points of equipment, or
something?

Open the Space Marine codex and turn to the page just before the army
list with the points costs for Wargear on it. Turn back one page, and
look at the bottom right area of the right-hand page. It should be
explained there.

I can't even remember what it says any more, but it's satisfied everyone
else who's asked.
