Okay, the profile says that they have 1 attack.

Then they get manidblasters

2 attacks

And they have a second CCW, giving them 3 attacks, 4 on the charge.

They exarch on the other hand can take two chainsabres. Does this count as two closecombat weapons, so giving him 5 attacks on the charge or not? Does it just give him the same number of attacks but the ability to reroll wounds etc etc?

chiaz,

The book isn't entirely clear. RAW would say that the sabre pair give +1A, then and extra +1A for using 2 weapons, but I think the intent is that the rerolls is the bonus, not the extra attack.

Bear in mind that, because these aren't specifically Scorpion Chainswords, they don't get the +1S, and so are S3.

Personally, I like the Claw, so haven't looked into rulings.
