| Hi guys
This is the bloodletters profile (BTB bestiary, p. 80):
M WS BS S T W I A Ld 4 5 0 5 3 1 4 1 8
Weapons/Armour: Bloodletters fight with a massive double-handed sword.
Bloodletters are armed with a double-handed sword. That means they always strike last with S7? Or the Hellblades are included in its profile (S5)?
What do you think? | |

| The weapon Strength bonus should be treated as separate to the profile. Therefore these bloodletters will strike last with Strength 7 attacks.
To justify this, I point to the rules for bestigors just above the rules for bloodletters on the same page of the BTB Bestiary. On a roll of 3-5 they come with halberds and on a 6 they come with double-handed axes. The halberds and double-handed axes must separate to the profile because halberds add +1 Strength to attacks while the double-handed axes add +2 Strength while the swords (when a 1-2 is rolled) adds no additional Strength to attacks. | |
