===Arco-Flails=== [[File:Arco-flails.JPG|200px|right|thumb|Arco-Flails]] Arco-Flails is the catch-all term used to describe the various weapons surgically grafted on an [[Arco-flagellant]]. The flails, [[Pretend|despite the name]], is actually made up of various weapons, such as cutting claws, pneu-mattocks, cleavers and electro-flails. Due to the fact that each Arco-flagellant is 'equipped' with a different set of weapons with different properties, countering a [[Rage|rage-inducing cyborg]] - let alone a horde of them - is pretty difficult, especially if these Arco-flagellants uses the [[Power Weapon#Electro-Flail|electro-flail]] variety which behave similarly to those of [[Power Weapon|close combat power weapons]] [[Wat|that act like]] [[Arc Weaponry|arc weapons.]] On tabletop, despite the wide variety of weapons that an Arco-Flail subsists on, on tabletop 8th Edition, they are all treated as one weapon. Arco-Flails usually make d3 hit rolls per attack, at S+1 AP-1, damage 1. While this seems rather lackluster - and it is - the point is that Arco-flagellant work best when supported by another unit. In this case, a [[Ministorum Priest]] acts as ''the'' go-to supporter, with the priest using his abilities to boost these attacks into a D3 multiplier. For even more bang for your buck, a Arco-flagellant with the Extremis Trigger Word stratagem makes their weapons get [[Awesome|'three' hit rolls per attack instead of D3.]] Combine that with a preacher, and each model gets [[Rape|nine attacks at S5 AP-1 damage 1,]] [[RIP AND TEAR|which is enough of a blender to tear through just about anything.]] The only issue with all of this is that Arco-Flagellants only hit on 4s, but since they have a Zealot that means they'll still be hitting around two thirds of the time.
