Yeah, this is one of those cases where reading too much into the name of the rule really is reading too much into the name of the rule. "Hands" are not a game concept. There's no rule stating that you can only have, or benefit from, X hands' worth of gear. There is never a case where you need to ask yourself, "Okay, how many hands does it take to benefit from this piece of wargear?"
Karathon's correct.
Single handed and double handed only matter for your bonus attack, nothing else. It's been two editions since there were a limit on the number of hand...slots, I guess, on weapons you could have on one model. Now you can have twelve pistols and five ccw and six storm shields, you just won't get +1A for it.
I am the Hammer. I am the right hand of my Emperor. I am the tip of His spear, I am the gauntlet about His fist. I am the woes of daemonkind. I am the Hammer.
I think in the last codex there was a snip it saying this was a "good tactic and makes for a cool looking model" or something. I know that's the last edition but there are no rule changes in reguard to this.
Hey, Katharan.
It doesn't look like the SS/Daemonblade combo is an option. The Malleus inquisitor doesn't have the ability to choose from the Inquisitorial Armory (it's options are pretty well specified as far as weapons go). The only option from the wargear section that isn't hard coded is the Inquisitorial Relics section. Whew on that.

You can take Inquisitor Hector Rex, though.
That, in fact, is probably the thing that bugs me the most about the GK codex (other than the lack of Fearless). Sword and shield Grey Knights would look so awesome, but you can't do that.

Yes, they would have had to design a lot of stuff differently.

Maybe with the GK codex update? Any rumors on when that's supposed to be?
