Models with access to the armoury can take one two-handed weapon and one one-handed weapon. I get no bonus for having two weapons, but the ability to shoot a terminator before charging him and having a good chance of the shot sticking is too good to pass up. After all, she is ballistic skill 5 and has a 2+ armour save.
I agree with you about the celestians, but there is no option listed for them in the codex giving them the choice of bolter or bolt pistol and ccw. Not only are they ws 4, but they have holy hatred and always hit on 3's regardless of respective weapon skills (Characters, Monstrous Creatures and Vehicles that don't have a weapon skill excepter.) They would make a great ccw squad othrwise, Although, 8 more Sister Superior models at 10 bucks a piece is a bit much for one squad, and they are metal, and beyond my ability to convrt.
The thought about the Retributor squad is a great one, I already have the model and it fits well with my general strategy of trying to only add things to squads which help them do their job better. If a retributor is in need of a CCW, I have already screwed up something.
