personally i never agreed with the whole "if you roll a 1 you lose all attacks" BS of Daemon weapons. If the weapon were free, it would be one thing, but you are paying 40pts for it.
Im fine with taking no armor save wounds if you roll a 1, and get 0 bonus attacks if you roll a 1, but to lose all your attacks is just stupid.
What other piece of wargear causes you to not only lose all attacks BUT take a wound if you roll a 1...for 40pts?
