im a new ork player and have run into a problem with my warboss construction
models i see appear to be warbosses with a choppa and a kustom shoota
in the current codex a shoot is a 2 handed weapon and ork warboss's are not stated to have true grit, how is this so ?

A model can have a two handed weapon and a one handed weapon, they can use both. They will not benefit from having an extra attack in assault, which they would do with 2x one handed weapons.

Personally I run my warboss without any ranged weaponry but with a choppa and power klaw. Nice flexibilty in combat and great at carving his way into bunkers and vehicles :twisted:

That's the usual loadout-- choppa and claw. It's kunvershun time! You could order up Borgut Facebeater, scare up a round base, and order a power klaw bit to replace one of his choppas. Might take a little green stuff, but if you've got a GW store near you, they're quite happy to help, from what I've heard. There's not a GW in Indiana, so I can't really speak from experience on that one-- I deal entirely with independent retailers, who aren't half as interested in the hobby as GW stores (and unsurprisingly so, since, you know... it's GW's game...)

Well personaly im thinking of using just a choppa and slugga then giving him More Dakka so he gets the +1 attack and still strikes initiative 4. If i gave him a power claw he wouldnt get the 'power of the waaaaaagh' bonus making him inititive 8. Maybe if i was sending him after tanks hed have a PC but i dont want him loosing an advantage in cc with anything with a higher number squad.

While im here is there any point point giving my Nob bodygaurd Uge choppas instead of powerclaws and choppas seeing as they strike last in combat anyway?
