8th Ed. Temple Guard's Amour and weapon

[Bearded_Dragon]

Hey

Just a quick Q about temple guard and thier weapons and amour

They have Halberds and a shield on the physical model, but halberds require 2 hands to use.

so while in close combat you cant use the shield for +1 AS?

and while being shot at you can benefit from the +1 AS?


well thats my understanding. unless these guys are that good you recieve the +1 AS in both cases


thanks

You are absolutely right. TG have a 4+ save in Close Combat (5+ scaly + LA) and a 3+ from shooting (+5 scaly, LA and Shield). It also means they don't get a 6+ parry wardsave in close combat
