Maybe i've played too much 40k but if a weapon is refered to as "Twin" as in Twin Big Shoota's does it get to reroll its shot? Or is this just a name?

Just a name, in Epic the fact a weapon is twin linked will be represented in its AP/AT/AA value being better than a weapon that isnt twin linked.

This is one of the confusing items in E:A - if its name is "twin linked weapon" or some alternative, this is a description of the weapons, and the single set of stats provided reflects the total capability of the weapons.

OTOH, if its name is "2x shooty thing" this means that the stats reflect a single 'shooty thing' and that there are two of them in this case, so you get to throw two dice.

Generally in Epic a Twin weapon has +1 to hit compared to the non-twin version, and this is already included in the stat:

Heavy Bolter: AP5+
Twin Heavy Bolter: AP4+
