warhammer 40k question: how do power weapons work?
i have a sanguinary squad and a terminator squad that all have power weapons of some sort, and since my ref sheet doesn’t show anything about power fists/swords/axes so i need to know how they work. im pretty sure that they are exclusively used in the assault phase but im not sure. all i need right now is some help figuring out, so please answer with a comprehensive response.
and please no rude or insulting answers. i don’t play he game in tournaments, just at home with friends and family.
also, what does the strength stat do?
Power Weapons(also called power swords and power axes) ignore armor saves in close combat. Power Fists work differently: They double the models strength and ignore armor saves, but the model must strike at Initiative 1. Rules for both are found in the Warhammer 40K rulebook.
Strength is used to wound in close combat. Close combat weapons do not have their own strength (unlike ranged weapons), so you use the Strength of the model to wound.
