Does that make sense?

I'll interject here...the thought is to have a model, when used in a model list view to be considered as a basic model with only non-standard equipment to be shown. So that you basic space marine would just output as Space Marine (it would be assumed that you know that he is equipped with Bolter, grenades, etc). If you added a missle launcher to him, then is would display that as equipment, thus "Space Marine - Missile Launcher" in the model list view.
The problem is that while for some units the Bolter would be standard, there are some units that the Bolter would be non-standard equipment. Thus the alternative would be to have two bolters as options, one being a "equipment" for use as an non-standard option and another bolter which would not be flagged as equipment and used when the bolter is considered standard equipment.
