Difficult one that. I would edge to 'no', as he always had 2 hand weapons, so you would assume the extra attack was always included.

Reference Section – Magic Items, Paired Weapons
Change the last sentence to: “In addition to their other effects,
paired weapons have the Extra Attack and the Requires Two
Hands special rules.”

Now they added ''Paired weapons'' to Korhil Chayal magic weapon.

Since paired weapon add +1 extra attack, I think Korhil should have [3/4] under his attack profile...?

I'm I wrong?

I guess You're right. It sounds strange a faq about without any modification to the previous profile...

Hi UltraPrime,

The problem is if you're right and the answer is 'no', then it means that he has only 2 attacks if, for a reason, he loses the ability to use his magic weapon.

I'm verifying with the uk gw helpdesk.

Tricky one this. I think I'm going to leave it for the moment, but I'll be keeping an eye on general consensus.

[Caradryan]

I'm quite sure that the profile of Korhil now is 3(4). The rule is written at page 501 of the BRB for magic paired weapons.

I don't know if this is really a bug, but it is bugging me. Great weapons still show as giving always strikes last when in the faq GW said that the army book takes precidence mening that Speed of Asyurian ignores always strikes last. Could you change it so that always strikes last doesnt show on the HE lists to avoid some confusion?

Hi Caradryan,

Were you able to get an official answer from gw to our question? I see that it wasn't fixed in the 1.4 release, so I'm assuming that UltraPrime is waiting for it before making any modification.

The rule is very clear about Paired Weapon, and since they added it to Korhil magic weapon, well it means that we should add Extra Attack special rule to Korhil.

Also, all forums that I can find are saying that Korhil has 4 attacks with Chayal.

I've included this for next update.

Khoril is definetely 3 (4) as for the rules of magic paired weapons, it means he has +1 attack for sure. There is no official letteral faq about but there is the one that Chayal is a magical paired weapon in High Elves 1.1 faq.
