	*'''Autogun:''' 24", rapid fire 1, S3, AP0, D1. Think of it as a lasgun that cannot FRFSRF. Previously only available to Ministorum Priests, now Veterans can take these for [[Derp\|some reason]]. Would be cool if they had special ammo or something so they had a reason to exist.

	*'''Shotgun:''' 12", assault 2, S3, AP0, D1, becomes S4 if the target is within 6". Available to your Commanders (Index) as well as to Veterans, with whom they go well alongside their plethora of flame weapons.		*'''Shotgun:''' 12", assault 2, S3, AP0, D1, becomes S4 if the target is within 6".

 *'''Vox-Caster:''' Your only Infantry wargear in this section. This machine is the beating heart of the Orders system. If an Officer is within 3" of a model with a Vox, and the target squad also has a Vox (and is of the same {{W40Kkeyword|<Regiment>}}), the range of the order is ''tripled'' to 18". The important thing to note here is that it means your Officers can improvise their command structure a lot more - ''any'' Vox can send, and ''any'' Vox can receive, as long as the Officer and target squad share regiments. It is entirely legal - and fluffy - for your Platoon Commander, his assigned Vox operator having been killed, to run to a nearby squad of Tempestus Scions and commandeer their Vox Operator to continue sending orders! This also means you don't need to rely on flimsy four-man Command Squads for your Officers to send orders out; squads of Veterans with sniper rifles and heavy weapons, and even ''Militarum Tempestus Scions'' can be used as "command" squads.
