Combi-weapon
From Lexicanum
Combi-weapons are guns used by Imperial and Chaos Space Marine armies, and are essentially Bolters incorporating a second weapon which is good for a single shot per battle. Only one of the component weapons may be fired at once. There are two ways of designating them, either Combi-(weapon) or Bolter-(weapon).
Bolter-Flamer (Combi-Flamer)
A Bolter with a Flamer strapped to the side, useful for close quarters fighting.
Bolter-Grenade Launcher (Combi-Grenade Launcher)
A Bolter with a Grenade Launcher strapped to the side, useful for fighting large hordes of enemies.
Bolter-Meltagun (Combi-Meltagun)
A Bolter with a Meltagun strapped to the side, useful for tank hunting.
Bolter-Plasma Gun (Combi-Plasma Gun)
A Bolter with a Plasma Gun strapped to the side, useful for a variety of missions.
Bolter-Needle Pistol (Combi-Needle Pistol)
A Bolter with a Needle Pistol strapped to the side, useful against high toughness creatures. Used only by the Daemonhunters.
Bolter-Stake Crossbow (Combi-Stake Crossbow)
A Bolter with a Stake Crossbow strapped to the side, useful against psykers. Used only by the Witch Hunters.
Twin-linked Bolter (Combi-Bolter)
Used by the Space Marines since before the Horus Heresy, the Combi-Bolter is a similar weapon to the Imperium's more advanced Storm Bolter. While the Storm Bolter is a single weapon, the Combi-Bolter is essentially two Bolters strapped together. They are commonly used on Chaos Space Marine Bike Squadrons but are no longer produced in the Imperium in favour of the Storm Bolter.
