Colen (NOT Colin)! (sorry about that on the previous posts) =)

Anyway, Noise marine cult terminators have a box to check 'noise
marine weapons'. This box appears to appears to do nothing when
checked for a noise marine terminator aspiring champion. It works
great for the rest of the noisy termies.

Again, I don't have my book in front of me, but typically a character
upgrade in a unit may not take the units weapon options.

Okay, that's fine. However, there still remains the minor issue of
the check box that does nothing.

Hmmmm.... There is a difference between noise marines and their
weapons and SM scout snipers. The sniper rifles are optional weapons
that are purchased as upgrades for a squad. In the case of noise
marines, sonic blasters are the normal weapon for the squad.
Sergeants or Aspiring champions may not be entitled to a squad's
upgrades but they should be able to take the default weapon
regardless of whether it is a bolter, bolt pistol and CCW, or a sonic
blaster. The squad upgrade weapon is a blast master which you can't
give to the aspiring champion.

Like I said, I didn't have the book in front of me... sure, if the sonic
blaster is the normal weapon, then the aspiring champion should have one.

I thought Champions got a Doom Siren and Power
weapon (for next to no price) when you upgraded
them to Champion status. And that you could give
them a Sonic Blaster for a couple few extra
points.

Hmmm... I think you're right! =)

Nevertheless, my point still remains which is:

The check box to select noise marine weapons for noise marine
aspiring champion terminators does nothing...

Yes, that's a mistake.

Just because they're Noise Marine Terminators, their normal weapon is still
the Combi Bolter. Sonic Blasters still cost 10 points to upgrade to, for
example.

That's Noise Marine champions, not Terminator Champions. And you can't give
them Sonic Blasters - it specifically states they have a Doom Siren, Bolt
Pistol & CCW.
