Santiago Ortega and the Peacebringer Blade of Doom....?

[ArcticFox]

My wife and I, noobs, are trying to figure something out here.

Santiago Ortega's "Is That All You Got?" affects his Peacebringer Strikes. Is it safe to assume that doesn't include the "Peacebringer Blade" strikes?

Following that logic, does it also follow that the Weapon, Peacebringer: Paired rule doesn't apply to the Peacebringer Blade?

Same question applies to Rapid Fire, Critical Strike and Trigger Happy.

My impression is that since the weapons are listed separately on the front of the card, none of these apply to Peacebringer Blade, but we just want to be certain.

(I searched for this and didn't find anything, so hopefully it isn't just a case of weak search-fu on my part.)

You understand correctly. Even though the models have names that are similar, and fluffwise are clearly the same weapon used in different ways, they are treated as totally different weapons -- abilities that affect Peacebringer don't affect Peacebringer Blade.

Thanks! I think part of the confusion, especially with the Paired rule, is the model is sculpted with two blades.

Its only the gun, not the blade.

Santiago kinda sucks at melee

Serious understatement.

Another way to look at it, is that sculpts are irrelevant to models abilities. If its not on the card, its not there.

I think there are a few models sculpted with weapons they don't actually have.
