Default need help with daemon hunters

i do not play daemon hunters, but my friend plays them, and he claims that he's terminators get a +2 strength (a upgrade apparently) towards all enemies, after searching through he's codex i found this is true. but surly he gets this +2 against daemons or chaos only? (sorry if this is a stupid question but i have not gotten round to reading he's codex properly)

Actually my friend is the war gear, all Grey Knights have Nemesis Force Weapons, this adds +2 to their strength profile, only the normal power armor Grey Knights will lose the nemesis force weapon if they carry a incinerator or psycannon, Plus the Grand Master nemesis force weapon counts as a force weapon and all nemesis force weapons are power weapons as well.

Not all nemesis force weapons actually ignore saves. Only those carried by justicars, and terminators ignore saves.

They all ad +2 strength.

So... in conclusion:

-All unmodified Grey Knights have the +2 strength bonus, for they all carry Nemesis Force Weapons. The only Grey Knights that don't have +2 strength are the ones that aren't carrying Nemesis Force Weapons (ones with Incinerators or Psycannons). Basically, all Grey Knights with the big sticks have +2 S.

-Only Grey Knight Justicars, Terminators, Brother Captains, and Grand Masters have Nemesis Force Weapons that qualify as Power Weapons.

That should answer your question. Kudos to Falstead and Gilber987. :P

Nope just the grand master, unless he has inquisitors who can buy a force weapon if they want.
