Editing Warhammer 40,000/8th Edition Tactics/Genestealer Cults (section)

===Pistols===

*'''Autopistol''': Standard S3 sidearm. Most of your troops have one, don't forget to use them before charging (if that doesn't increase your charge distance) and sometimes even in melee. Absolutely wonderful to have since they're free damage.
*'''Bolt Pistol''': Standard S4 sidearm.
*'''Hand Flamer''': Absolutely brutal weapon, '''1 point''' D6 S3 Pistol. Get this for your Acolytes, shove them into your opponent's chaff with Lying in Wait, shoot with "A perfect ambush" and then shoot again in the following Shooting phase. Sisters and Salamanders wished they could be half as hot as these. Or at least as cheap. [[Rape|and then there's Overwatch...]]
*'''Laspistol''': Standard S3 sidearm, and carbon copy of the Autopistol.
*'''Liberator Autostub''': The Kelermorph's rootin' tootin' shootin' 12" Pistol 2 S4 AP-1 D2. The Kelermorph has three of these babies and can just gun down space marines and below with ease. Cipher ''wishes'' he could get guns this good - seriously, these easily outperform even Deathwatch bolt pistols.  Ignore the fluff entry about these being popular with gangsters and arbites - there aren't any Imperium pistols that can compete with this thing.
**[[Troll|Because all of the Kelermorphs stealing them, of course.]]
*'''Web Pistol''': Makes wound rolls against the lower of the target's S and T. Situational. It is a 1 point, 1 shot hand flamer, for what it's worth.
