Machinator Array+mechadendrite(autopistol)+burst as a reaction?

By Sirion2, in Dark Heresy Rules Questions

ballistics mecha costs 600
chain axe costs 450
power blade costs 1750

700 thrones don't come from nowhere...
and the even bigger problem is availability... of course both have very rare but kill a single butcher and you got one... (or in my case a combat servitor)

Um, a butcher wouldn't be using a chain-axe... A chain-knife, sure. But not an axe. The closest thing to an axe you would see a butcher use would be a cleaver... Ooohh... A chain-cleaver! That would be awesome. But I think not in a 'dendrite. I personally feel there should be some limit to the bulk allowed even with the Machinator Array enhanced 'dendrite. After all, we go from compact laspistol to any pistol-class weapon or "close combat" weapon... I'm just saying, the limit may not be stated as "small" melee weapons, but I think it is more logical than a "chain-axe on a waldo." But again, that's just my two bits on the topic.

Well the generic Slaughterman out of the Corebook has a chainaxe and by description he is basically a butcher.
