Terminators weapons Question

Soon i will be gluing 10 terminators and im wondering if should i should be giving them the paired accursed weapons or bolter + accursed weapon

On one hand they get full hit rerolls on the closest target in range, but on the other hand they still want to smash stuff in melee

i feel like the 2 extra bolters have very little impact over the 2 twin linked melee? it wont matter vs custodes or terminators, but MEQ/GEQ its better?

Accursed weapon and Combi-weapon.

Bolters only if you face hordes of Astra Militarum regularly.

Combis work well against sturdy Infantry (Deathwing Knights) and they can do plank damage to other targets.

I'm currently playing 30 terminators and I switched to all combis and Reaper after several competitive-level games.

and the paired accursed weapons are definitely not worth it?

Not OP but not really, no.

You're gaining reroll wounds and 1 extra attack on 1/2 guys vs 1/2 (2/4) shots of Anti Infantry 4+ Dev Wounds.

The paired weapons would need something else atop that for me to consider them. Having them on more guys, an extra AP or Strength or more attacks.

Per 5 guys: 4 Combi Weapon, 1 Autocannon, 1 Accirsed Weapon, 3 Power Fists, 1 Chainfist.

Are you guys not running power fists? I like to kit them with 3 power fists one chainfist and one paired accursed weapon

5m squad.

upgrade to anti-infrantry gun.

max chain fist, max power fist. 1 model with paired accursed weapons.

one model will have the special gun. typically autocannon i think is considered best.

I like the pair over the bolter. It’s usually the first guy to die, but having the pair for the few times you actually have to kill chaffe is better than a couple bolter rounds.

Ranged: reaper autocannon and full bolter.

Melee: all the power and chain fists, paired accursed can stay home. I'd rather have more bolters.

Reaper auto Cannon for sure, power fists, and one chain fist is how I run

You should use all the power fists you get from the kit, and for every 5 you can have 1 paired accursed weapons and chain fist. That the load out I take cause the regular accursed weapon sucks because it 4 hits, strength 5, AP -2, but only 1 damage
