Jorin Helm-splitter Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Another one I got to use like once in all of 8th though I played an absurd amount. It hurts to say but If we were only going to get a handful of strats I’m ok with lone wolf moving to crusade. ya, but still. *sad puppy face*. VBG with lone wolf strat popped . Yeah especially if you only started with a couple of characters so they didn't pick the assassinate secondary. It does belong in crusade though, and it makes so much more sense than the last survivor immediately hulking up, or in 5th when lots of armies ran 3 in terminator armor.

NatBrannigan Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 So if I have a Wolf Guard pack leader with 2 Lightning Claws, and I upgrade 1 to a Frost Weapon, do all the attacks get the bonus S & D? All but one of the attacks? Half of them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wispy Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 all of them i suspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VIth Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 I used touch of the wild exactly once. Thanks a lot COVID. In a Crusade game, Intercessor Pack Leader with Thunder Hammer was lone survivor of his pack. Popped Lone Wolf. Next turn charged in. Popped Touch of the Wild. Wiped out Nightlord Sorcerer in Terminator Armor and a unit of Warptalons. My friend was shocked, haha. TiguriusX 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Shepherd Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Frost Claws is probably the one good "sergeant" relic we can take Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splog Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Is ‘sergeant relic’ only for wolfguard or any sergeant? Because Morkai’s Teeth Bolts on a Heavy Intercessor with a 42” range executor bolt rifle is quite nice. Master crafted Plasma Exterminators not too shabby either.

As far as I can tell thane of the retinue would allow exactly that. Which is awesome because I love morkais teeth But it always seemed like a waste on a master crafter stalker lt.

Kallas Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Master crafted Plasma Exterminators not too shabby either. Bear in mind that that would only apply to one of the Sergeants' guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf Guard Dan Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 We can give a sergeant a relic via stratagem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karhedron Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Wolf Tail Talisman is another Relic that would go nicely on any Pack Leader expecting to drop into the thick of the action. Nerf you enemy's psykers and leave your Characters free to tool up with more hitty items. More situational though I will agree.

FabulousRex Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 A master crafted Cyclone missile launcher on a TDAWG in a Long Fang pack could be quite interesting as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainStabby Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Im just happy the Armor of Russ stayed intact. I can still put it on a Judiciar and double freeze bubble someones melee mob. It only has to work once to be hilarious. :D VIth and Wolf Guard Dan 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorin Helm-splitter Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Armor of Russ actually got better because it gives a 2+ save in addition to the 4++. I also like that we have three ways to give fights last to opposing units. VIth 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vassakov Posted November 29, 2020 Author Share Posted November 29, 2020 Random question with Thane of the Retinue - is using that strat considered to be an "extra" Relic or do you have to buy the relic on top? My assumption is the former but Battlescribe is currently telling me I have too many relics! Havok13 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone with Sgt or pack leader in their profile Wolf guard pack leaders are eligible. This means the LF wolf guard terminator pack leader with an assault cannon can be buffed to have 12 BS2 shots with S6 AP1 D2 (signum + Armorium cherub + master crafted) Karhedron 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USNCenturion Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 What are peoples thoughts on Veteran Intercessors? I like auto rifle intercessors and assault intercessors, but it seems as if one or the other are better served as the veteran variety for the extra attack. Also, how are you outfitting your intercessor sergeants? Is the power fist or hammer automatic even for midfield shooty squads or is the chainsword getting good results as well? I like pushing my auto squads toward the midfield before getting stuck in around turn 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiguriusX Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Veteran intercessors are no longer troops so I think other units are better What made them good before was obsec + filling the battalion troop tax + combat ability Rather have bladeguard for similar points with current codex and stratagems Karhedron, USNCenturion and Dark Shepherd 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverShire Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 I quite like the idea of dropping in 10 grey hunters in the Pod with WGBL. SS on WGBL and morkai's teeth on the GHPL. re-roll 1's to wound on an important unit could be really clutch IMO and the 9 other bodies could be enough to keep the relic alive for another turn and if not the a moderate amount fire power will be needed to wipe them out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
