LOL.... you guys sure do know how to make it look better or worse than it really is.
The big Bug Boy gets only 8 attacks on the charge, and 7 'normally'. With the Scorpion Chainsword, his attacks are at his normal initiative of 7, and are at Str5, but do not bypass armor saves. Plasma grenades will ensure that he gets to use his high initiative when charging into combat with is chainsword leading. If he chooses to use his Scorpion's Claw, then he will still receive 8 attacks on the charge and 7 attacks 'normally', all at strength 8 (the chainswords str bonus will not apply), but he will strike at initiative 1 regardless of the use of plasma grenades.
Just beware... he is only T4, and while immune to instant death effects, a powerfist wielding Sgt, or any other 'hidden' or 'uber tough' model with high strength and armor bypassing weapons, can still end his life pretty quickly.
