Can I arm my fighter with more than one basic or special or heavy weapon, or how abut with lots of pistols and grenades? How would I fight in HTH?
There is no limit to the number of weapons a fighter can be armed with, except for heavy weapons. On page 78 of the ORB is states 'A fighter can carry only one heavy weapon – eg. He can carry a heavy stubber or lascannon, but not both. He can have any number of other weapons.' This means that you could arm your fighter with a Heavy Stubber, shotgun, two plasmaguns, a bolt pistol or twos, some frag grenades, a stub gun with dum-dums, a chainsword, and let's not forget his free knife either. Per page 23 of the ORB states you need a hand to carry each basic, special, or heavy it should read that you need a hand to carry or use them all, not one per. Then, if this fighter gets into HTH though he can only use only one of his CCW weapons in the close combat phase. There are also no official rules for slinging weapons or encumbrance other then for heavy weapons. Although you may have a heavy stubber, shotgun, two plasmaguns, two bolt pistols, an autopistol, frag grenades a stub
