Super Commando Arsenal 3?

[killdwarves]

Curious as to why the Super Commando Captain has Arsenal 3? They have a melee weapon and a 8" range weapon on the card and gain access to 1 more weapon off of loadout, but unless I am missing something they can only ever use 2 of those weapons at once?

The 8"-range ranged Hand Blaster has the Versatile keyword. As described in the Special Operations Special Rules, this keyword allows the weapon to be used to perform either a ranged attack or a melee attack. The Super Commando can therefore use both Hand Blasters in melee, as well as a third weapon, such as the Wrist Flamers.

Hope this helps,
