Maybe this opinion is unpopular, but i never considered weapon options to be really meaningful, maybe in 40k, but definetly not in fantasy, especially when the objectively better option is usually pretty easy to spot, there isnt a reason to take longbeards with hand weapons, or the dfference between thunderers and quarerels is laughable, but quararels are still a better pick so everyone runs them, never really felt any "depth" in that system, it doesnt quite change how you use a unit, compared to how different devastator squad with meltas would play compared to devastator squad with las cannons, most of the time is either i use whatever minis i have, or i use whatever is better
