Default Old gamer, new player

I am starting back into WH40K after a *looong* hiatus (and if you want to know how long, I last played under the Rogue Trader rules!) I am in the process of piecing together a Tau army (the models, tactics, and background intrigued me), and I hope to be playing my first games in the very near future.

I do have a very stupid newbie question that I can't find an answer for (I've been searching the Forums but I evidently can't find the magic combination of search terms). How the heck do I tell what weapons on the XV-8 sprues are what weapons in-game? Thanks for your patience.

Welcome to the forums Darkwater.

In order to tell what weapon is what, it is best that one refer to the codex, as they show you how does the weapons look like.

Just got the Codex, and there they are. Thanks.

A guy who remembers Rogue Trader? Wow. Now I am impressed . I started during the 2nd Edition and can still remember those rules fondly
