Fleshmetal Guns are the catch-all term for any assortment of...well...'''GUNS''' that an [[Obliterator]] had absorbed, consumed and repurposed in his living embodiment of [[Dakka]]. These weapons can be anything and is not standardized; usually the most consistent feature is the amount of gun barrels it can fit one's daemonically enhanced hands as inhumanly possible. It is for all intents and purposes, the baby version of the much larger and standardized Harvester Cannon found on [[Soul Grinder|Soul Grinders]].

Because of its variety, you can mount a combination of autocannons, plasma cannons, lascannons and heavy flamers all on one hand, and it would still be called a Fleshmetal Gun. This would, in theory, give the Fleshmetal Guns a lot of flexibility and adaptability, but at the same time it can be abused through the stratosphere. Seriously, [[Troll|imagine telling your opponent that your Fleshmetal Guns are all Lascannons on one playthrough,]] [[Just As Planned|and than on another playthrough, immediately tell him/her that these Lascannons has been morphed into a column of Heavy Flamers.]] Is it cheap? [[Cheese|Yes.]] Is it appropriate for the fluff? [[Lulz|Yes.]] But is it fun to play against? [[Bullshit|Hell the fuck no!]] (Just look at the history of the [[Jokaero]] to understand.)

So for the sake of balancing, they have always been standardized. Now in 8th Edition, Fleshmetal Guns For all intents and purposes, are an Assault 6, S 6+D3, AP-D3, 24" ranged meatgrinder of a gun with D3 damage per hit. Or if you don't understand it yet, it is basically asking you that, when in the Shooting phase or in Overwatch, roll three D3, one after the other, to determine the characteristics of the unit's Fleshmetal Guns for that Shooting phase/Overwatch attack. The first roll is added to 6 to determine the Strength, the second roll is the AP, and the third roll is the Damage. [[Tl;dr]], it is a slot machine for a gun that, on a good roll, can make [[Baneblade|Baneblades]] cry and on a bad roll, could only kill half a dozen Guardsmen.

In 9th they were changed again. You now have to choose one of three profiles each time they fire. Warp hail (Heavy D6+9, S5, AP -1 ,D1) is your infantry mulcher. Ruinous Salvo(Heavy D3+3, S7, AP -2, D2) is the anti MEQ Plasma like profile, no option for overcharging however. Focused Malice (Heavy D3, S9, -3, 4) is your vehicle killing Lascannon. Even better "Unrelenting Firepower" removes penalties for moving and allows Obilitartors to shoot within Engagement Range. With only a -1 for hit rolls for doing so. This makes them way more reliable and cuts down on the annoying time wasting rolls.
