so...in the spce marine codex it says i can give my bikes each krack grenades at 1 pt/and or melta bombs at 2 pts a model.But..when i look in the black templar codex..there are some difference..for example up to 3 riders can have power weapons...but no mention to melta bombs...i was planning on using my bikes as fast anti armor up untill i read this...does this mean i can not use melta bombs on black templar bikes?

Perhaps stick a couple of melta guns in the squad, that should be more than enough to take out most vehicles, as long as you can get in close enough. Then again, you would have to have got even closer if you were relying on melta bombs

According to \"Army Builder\" (a cool program that lets you design your army) Initiate bikers can only take frag, krak, and blind grenades.

Seems like they\'ve been swapped for power swords. I guess you could go close combat on a tank?

According to the program you can have upto 2 Meltaguns or plasma guns and 2 power weapons. (No attack bikes can join the squad like a normal bike squad it seems either)

Granted the program isn\'t done by GW, but the info in it is all gleaned from Codices, and seems to be pretty dead on most of the time.

If you were allowed to take the Bikers as described in the Space Marine Codex, then under Fast Attack in your Black Templar Codex, it would say \"Space Marine Bike Squad - As per the Space Marine Codex\".

Hope that helps.

Well, you\'re right, Army Builder does have some discrepancies, I should alert them to these ones.

I read it as saying that 3 bikers can have one special weapon each, eg 1 biker has a power weapon, and 2 have a meltagun each.
