Well, while we are nit-picking the WH40K files <GRIN>

Colen, I'm not sure how GW-UK answers this one. A Scout Sergeant in
the WH40K files is not permitted a Sniper rifle. The codex says,
ahem,
and I quote :)

"Any model in the squad may replace their bolt pistol and close
comabt
weapon with a sniper rifle at +5 points, or a bolter or shotgun at no
additional points cost."

To my way of thinking, this includes the sergeant. Of course, there
is
no standard model, but that doesn't stop me using one :)

Comments? Any chance of a fix in the future? Just saves me having to
create a patch file :)

Cheers
DaveC

Don't make us start on this again. If you want a detailed explanation,
look at some of the previous messages on this egroup. Basically, after a
long, annoying debate between me and some other people, the head of the
US GT (or whatever) said that you couldn't take Sniper Rifles, etc. This
is how the files are going to stay, unless God himself emails me saying
differently. :)

Kindly divert your eyes to page 5 of Codex:Space Marines and read the small but
oh so important text regarding options and squad upgrades :)

Thanks Jimi, very interesting indeed!

Apologies to Colen for re-vamping the Sniper story, I only recently
started getting this sent to me via email and must have missed the
previous inquisition :)

I just love the solidarity on game rulings from GW. I asked the Perth
(Western Australia) store and they said, "Yep, cant see any reason
why
not" :)

I guess it just means I'll have to make a note of it and check with
my
opponents before I play and keep my little mod file :) I can just see
the battlefield now ...

"You lads start shooting at the heretics"
"What are you doin' sarge?"
"Oh, cutting the oranges and getting the lemonade ready. Let me know
when it's half time or if the scumbag heretics get within pistol
range
" :)
