Rune Priest Jbickb Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 So according to some old fluff, our armories have a few of these bad boy kicking around. And with the new army building rules we can once again take them. Anyone planning on dragging these relics out of retirement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarl of Wulfen Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I didn't have one before, but I may get one now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Drekkan Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I have fond memories of using mine against orks and nids in the 3rd and 4th editions. Basically it was just a bs 4 LR exterminator. I'm affraid it will be now outclassed by a pair of predators destructor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Priest Jbickb Posted June 21, 2017 Author Share Posted June 21, 2017 Oh it definitely does get outclassed by the destructor but the destructor lacks the nostalgia. And the Russ is a bit more durable Wolf_Lord_Hardrada 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valerian Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I gave mine to my IG playing buddy well over a decade ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf_Lord_Hardrada Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I do have a Russ sitting around gathering dust, it will need its turret changing out but....if I just buy another one then I can run an exterminator and a plasma...right? If only we could put our doom-frost-cannons or whatever they are called onto Russ'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloody Legionnaire Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Wasn't the only reason we were given access to the LR Exterminator was because it was less powerful than the other variants? We could very well take any variant of the LR now.. How do the other variants stack up against the Destructor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karhedron Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I have one tucked away in SW livery that I may well dust off for old time's sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteySödes Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I turned mine into a terrain piece ages ago. Interesting idea though. How are you fitting them in though, Aux Support Detachment? I was under the impression each detachment had to match faction/chapter/etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was under the impression each detachment had to match faction/chapter/etc. They have the Imperium keyword, so they can go right into pretty much any Detachment with your Space Wolves. No need to use the Aux Support Detachment. PeteySödes 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammer grimblood Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 That's right. For now just build an Imperium detachment and you can include Russes in your heavy support slots along with "Aettguard" in your troops slots if you wish.

I've already got an Inquisitor, a Chimera and my Deathwatch. It would be nothing for me to "accidentally" pick up a Start Collecting box of Guard to round out my Imperium army :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuro_Ryu Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 My dreams have finally come true. I bought a russ and the fw turret back in the day, had maybe 2 games with it and the 5th codex came out. At which point I started using it with my orks as a looted tank. The time has come for my wolves to un-loot that tank =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
