Dark Shepherd Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Going by what they did to Beastslayer the wolflord traits are promising No saga/deed thankfully but its super(fluously) buffed up even if this one doesnt come with an aura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragnar69 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 No supplement pre-order next week. I hope we get ours soon as I pull something different from my pile of shame every day. I now have terminators, blade guard, a contemptor and a redemptor assembled and converted but not painted and I think I will now switch over to TWC .... And I will get the new Primaris Techmarine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triszin Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 soonest our supp or any supp starts to land is beginning of NOV. there are roughly 3 supps/ 1 dex that is landing in nov. likely, 1 book a week in nov. my guess is nov 7 Death watch nov 14 blood angels nov 21 death guard nov 28 wolves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiguriusX Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 FYI...I just noticed the SM stratagem "Commanding Oratory" for the chaplain lets you auto generate a litany in ANY phase This is currently legal for our wolf priest builds For deep strike charge lists...this means you can use a jump pack or terminator armor to arrive and pop the stratagem the in the charge phase AFTER you arrive for a guaranteed canticle of hate BadgersinHills, Karhedron, Valerian and 4 others 7 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Priest Jbickb Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Yeah that strat looks tasty. Helps with the reserve and transport issue for wolf priests Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC they announced the order and we are before Deathguard. Also they dont like releasing things the second last weekend of the month because of payday schedules and these supplements esp ours will be big enough, especially if theres a model release alongside it. Late Nov is normally when they start announcing/hyping the big Christmas boxes too. Am straying out of my comfort zone now but does Thanksgiving affect sales/releases in North America?

I am bringing wulfen axe/shield dreads and murderfang out of reserve with an auto canticle of hate buff 7s rerolling the charge Just need 1 of them to succeed and most enemies will be annihilated Then I should be deep in his lines and have HI tricks as a follow up move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteySödes Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 I’m a bit concerned that the Orator strat is an oversight. Hope I’m wrong but I think it’s likely to be FAQd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Shepherd Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 I’m a bit concerned that the Orator strat is an oversight. Hope I’m wrong but I think it’s likely to be FAQd. I can see them changing it to was already on thr board in command phase, otherwise it goes against everything theyre trying to do with Litanies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiguriusX Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 They could reword it to a litany that was attempted in the command phase and failed That would close the loophole and still leave it powerful. Jump chaplain can still cover a ton of ground so I just modify my plan and carry on BrotherRanik 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteySödes Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 I guess, I just see the strats intention to be a guaranteed success. When you look at the MOS upgrade though I fear the prayer strat in any phase for 1cp is absolutely insane. Again I hope I’m wrong and it’s not like I’m not building my bike Preist ;) TiguriusX 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrystalSeer Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Is it just me or is a generic MoS better than ulric in pretty much every way? TiguriusX, Dark Shepherd and Karhedron 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteySödes Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 (edited) Ulrik has the better stat line by a not insignificant margin and leadership aura. His auto inspire slayers oath also is pretty nice if you intend on using those stats.I’d say there’s a place for him in a list that needs something to bridge the support and frontline gap. MOS is the same points for a weaker stat line and aura while ulrik also gets 2 litanies per command. I’m not sure what metric you’re looking at here, maybe I missed something.

Vassakov Posted October 14, 2020 Author Share Posted October 14, 2020 Ulrik also has the MoS keyword as well, so it's possible that come our Supplement he could be given the relevant Warlord Trait. Dark Shepherd 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorin Helm-splitter Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 He also could receive a better warlord trait. Hopefully on Saturday the mention which supplement is coming first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Shepherd Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Apologies if this is too off topic but given the escalating Nurgles Rot situation in the UK but especially in Nottingham youd hope theyd learn from the start of the year or be scared enough by it to speed up releases as much as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dice4thedicegod Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Just keeping fingers crossed for a bit of wulfen strat support in the supplement. All they need is one for advancing and charging , and another for giving fnp (both of which have been created for other factions in the past) and they will be good to go.

Triszin Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 the only thing i hope for is fluffy fun, well balanced rules. - I hope lone wolf strat stays, because that can make a wolf guard blade veteran stupid nasty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah given how a lot of special rules have gone into strats hopefully they get something like that or an extra attack aura Agreed on Lone Wolf, so many options for it now to make Super Sergeants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has one BS and one AP on his crozius over a standard Primaris chaplain and one wound over a firstborn in power armor. Slayers Oath + Beastslayer could be better than Wise Orator if the situation ever comes up, but for that to happen you have to: A) Get a move 6" model into combat with a Character or Monster B.) Early enough in the game that its relevant C) while ensuring he alone gets the actual kill Unless all of that happens, Litanies still go off on 3+ and you don't get the discount on the auto-cast strat, which will likely come up numerous times.

Space is at a premium for both and alot the workstations can't be moved with out alot of effort. Dark Shepherd 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Two Wolf Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 The errata is a stop gap measure to get everyone on the same page with the new codex SM. We will get new traits, relics, strats etc without any doubt whatsoever or there would be no supplement. I'd expect some of the character data sheets to also change and perhaps even a slightly modified structure maybe offering an extra hq or a pre-battle strat for that. Hope so. The errata is not a problem for gw in terms of mistakes etc because it is disappeared when the supplement arrives, it just had to be issued to bring about the end of 8th. Don't know about sagas but not being in the errata has no bearing whatsoever on them being in the supplement or not; they might just be fluff monster awesome, no way to tell yet. Biggest thing for me is the priest status re apothecary strats and abilities. Karhedron, svane jotunsbane and Dark Shepherd 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
