considering the high pts cost of the crusader, that pintle-storm bolter will still count towards avoiding additonal 'weapon destroyed/immobilised' results as it's a S4 gun and thus counts as an additional 'defensive weapon'! (even if your crusader has no guns, as long as it's still mobile then it's still a scoring unit, so it basically buying an extra 'weapon destroyed' result your opponent needs to get through...)
and it's only 6 twin-linked bolters total between the sponsons!

mind you, i highly doubt many space marine players would complain if they up'ed it to 12?!!LOL
cheers!
