So, the question is if a Space Marine Sergeant has a powerfist, can he choose not to use it, and strike on his own iniative instead? If yes, does he use the bolt pistol (lets assume he has one)?
And if the answer to that is yes, what about Terminator with stormbolter and powerfist, since you cannot use stormbolter as ccw?
Or are you struck with your only melee weapon for the whole game, with benefits and drawbacks?
And a follow up question: If you have multiple close combat weapons (power sword and powerfist), at what point do you choose which one you will be using during combat?
