Catachan "fake" Grenade Launcher

[Aertes]

There's a little thing that annoys me slightly, i wonder if someone else feels like it.

Catachan's squads have a member armed with a grenade launcher that is used ONLY when the grenade barrage ability is used. The rest of the time you see the soldier aim with the grenade launcher (and shout "bang! bang!") without shooting.

Would it be very bad to give a fire animation to that model? even if its a dummy that deals no damage.
Or, give him a normal grenade launcher shot and, in exchange, lower a bit the damage output of the shotguns.

He still contributes in Melee fights with that power melee and is part of an anti melee squad.

Close up shotgun shots from Catachans are painful as well that the lack of a grenade launcher dps doesn't bother me.

The grenade launcher is a representation of an active ability, do not think of it as a weapon, think of it as the ability trigger.

I swear its weird in that I think I see it shoot as the squad starts shooting, but only once, and then just as you say points it. Its some odd direct shot as well, doesn't loop like most grenades
