Yesterday i played the first time the pit fighter hired sword and wecrealized that hos weapons does not fit to the rules.

You can use the morning star only with a shield but not with a buckler or second handweapon.

So which weapon he may use? Both ( so he would be woththe 15 gc per battle ) or only one of them.

He has a special exception allowing him to wield both the Spiked Gauntlet and the Morning Star.

He truly is a dangerous foe with his 3WS5 S5 + 1WS5 S4 attack inside buildings.

I would have played it so.

In my rule book the pit fighter doesn't have the pit fighter skill.

Was there an rule update i missed?

you are right, that in fact, it is not clearly stated anywhere. But since he is equipped only with morning star and the gauntlet (which counts as additional hw and buckler in one), it would make no sense, if he couldn't use them simultaneously. Or am I missing something too? :-D

You're right. It does not say that he can use both weapons, but we've allways played that he could, since it's a special item. And since it allso counts as a buckler, i guess that sort of (if you want i to) means that he can use it with the morning star.
It doesn't say either, that he have the pit fighter skill. But he can take it with level advances.

Quote :
Equipment: Morning star, spiked gauntlet and
helmet. The spiked gauntlet counts as an additional
hand weapon and a buckler. And no, your Heroes
cannot learn to use it!

Thats what i found on page 104 (page 30 on the third pdf from the LRB).


And the morning star has the following rule:
Quote :
Difficult to use: A model with a morning star may not use a second
weapon or buckler in his other hand because it requires all his skill to
wield it. He may carry a shield as normal though.

This way he normaly just could use only one of them, because he could neither use a hand weapon or a buckler with the morning star.

But we play, that he can use both, because it seems to make more sense for us.

True. I forgot about the buckler thing too.

But we allso play that he can use both. I too think that is the intention.

Wow, not having played this game for two years really threw me off.

You are completely correct, RAW Pit fighters use either their morningstar or their spiked gauntlet.

However your group wants to play him is up to you, but I suggest allowing him to use both.
