I sent GW an e-mail with a few questions about Space Wolves in 6th and this is the reply e-mail:



"Thanks for the email about Space Wolves. It's great to hear that you are enjoying Warhammer 40'000 6th edition.For the rules questions that you have asked below we would be happy to Answer these.

Do Wolf guard that are in there own pack (not pack leaders) count as characters?
Yes, All of your Wolf guard will get precision strike and look out sir when they are in there unit.


Do lone wolves count as characters?
Yes, The character listing for this is listed on page 411 of the Warhammer 40'000 rule book

Dose Lucas count as a character?
Yes, as he is treated as a squad leader for your blood claws.

Do long fangs have flakk missiles?
No one at this stage has access to these missiles yet as it stats in the Missile launcher entry that all missile launchers have both Frag and Krak missiles but some may also be able to pay extra points for Flakk missiles.

Hope that this helps and if you have any other questions please contact us again"

I love Tau in CC, it's like clubbing baby seals, only tau are neither cute nor fluffy or protected by the Maritime Mammal Act..... so it's perfectly legal and the Sierra Club ASPCA nuts won't come looking for you!

For the regular Guardsman you've got Commissars holding guns to their backs. They're faithful in their own way, sometimes mightily so, but they are regular folks who've led regular lives, with the completely understandable desire to continue living that causes them to duck when they get shot at. Sisters are orphans raised in perpetual Sunday school, fanatical to the point that they look at Repentia and feel a twinge of jealousy that those girls will see the Emperor sooner than they will.

I'm impressed you got an answer. I've sent several questions in with nothing.

As said, many will say its not official, but until its in a FAQ this is good enough for me.

Trough the storms of the warp they come, upon the very tides of terror, but of such dangers they are uncaring. They are the Space Wolves, the undefeated, the bane of the Emperor's foes.

Almost everything in there already had its answer without FAQ'ing and was answered correctly. That said, reinforcing proper interpretation of rules is never a bad thing! :lol:
