ok I don't care what your class is gonna be in this post. All I want to know is what gun and/or sword you want to carry. (so even if you plan to be a space elf, but you love bolters. Say bolters)

So give me a range weapon and melee weapon and which would you prefer of the two. It can be any weapons as long as it fits into its category.

I'll start

Ranged: Bolt Pistol

Melee: Rapier like power sword with a simple/functional hilt.

Weapon of choice would be the pistol, but I would carry both at the same time because with the right look you look like a BA or very...imposing.

Lightning claws, Two-handed chainswords

Plasma cannon and Heay bolter

Having a tough choice here.

Ranged: MkIV 'sickle magazine' Bolter

Melee: Combat knife

The bolter is ubiquitous to 40k. Chaos, Space Marines, even Guard & Renegades sometimes use them, not to mention Rogue Traders & other ne'erdowells. I think what does it for me with the bolter is the way it works - shell impacts, explodes in its target.
As for the combat knife? I hope I'd not actually have to use it...

Thunder Hammer (preferably Foehammer ^^) and Shrieker Cannon

I'd prefer the hammer.. nothing quite like smashing through hordes of orks with a hammer that hits like a tank.

death spinners/ bilespewer
and
dire sword (would be feasible in the mmo, as each strike increases the next strikes damage.) /manreaper

Assault Cannon

Nuff said.

Exitus Rifle

Combat Knife

Fixed...stick with the template people.

Standard: Bolter with scope for increased accuracy.

Heavy: Assault Canon or Heavy Bolter.

Close Combat: Power Fist.

Ranged : Plasma Cannon, cant beat the thrill of closing your eyes with each shot and praying your not going to melt yourself to bits, as well as the joy of decimating infantry and tanks alike

Melee : Spear of Telesto please ^_^
