10 wounds at T9 with Regen and FnP?
.... Yes. Also, is that actually a set of Lash Whips for a bonus attack? Can't remember if the codex has the weapon as "a lash whip" or "lash whips" in a single slot.

Yeah Joel, it's for an extra A.
Which, of course, an additional A means an additional powerful sphincter.

I don't think its for an extra A, I think you just get the +3 Initiative as usual. Wouldn't it say a pair of lashwhips? And wouldn't lashwhip have to be classified as a close combat weapon?

Well they have those and Scything Talons to make the +1 A pairing, right? And Venomthropes have only Lash Whips, so the precedent is there for them to be a CC weapon.

That's where it gets weird - you have to have 2 pairs of close combat weapons; and if lash whips aren't a) classified as close combat weapons or b) listed as a pair of close combat weapons, then it doesn't count.
Also I don't think the venomthrope has "lash whips" as a weapon - I think they're called something else to get the 2+ poison effect. It has lash whips, yes, but I don't think they're classified as a weapon.
I'm at work and don't have the codex on me (duh), so maybe someone else can help point out where the inevitable holes in my thought process are.

Just checked. They are listed under Melee Weapons as "Lash Whips." The confusion comes from the fact that 0 models can take them unless paired with a Bone Sword and only the Venomthrope (and now the Hierophant) has it stock.
So yeah, +1 A, more powerful sphincterage.

Anyone else gonna be really disappointed if the next Brohammer sub-title isn't "An Array of Powerful Sphincters"?

Well, if it's in the codex as "lash whips" as the single entry, then "lash whips" doesn't mean 2 of them (meaning no bonus attack).
I was mainly wondering if it was pluralized by nature in the codex (and it is, if you're not dirty liars). So it would have to be "two sets of lash whips" to get the bonus. Unless it has a 2nd CCW listed that I missed.
EDIT - YEUP I CAN"T READ. It definitely has Scytals, meaning 2 sets of weapons regardless of the Lashwhip conundrum, ergo, NINE ATTACKS. Because why wouldn't we have 10 on the charge? NO REASON, NOTHING TO SEE HERE, MOVE ALONG CITIZEN.
