Can we super charge a character like this?

[Bulwyf]

A friend plays Salamander successor for pure power gaming reasons.  He's going to use this character in our next game. I'm not complaining about how incredibly powerful it is for only 140 points. I just want to know if there's any character we have that we can turbo boost like this?  The character is the chaplain on bike btw.

 

Here is his description:

 

he’s S8 T7 3+/4+ WS 2+ BS 3+ Benediction of Fury (relic) AP -2 flat 4 dmg 6+ do an additional mortal wound

Fall back and charge, 6+ cause additional hits

 

 

 

Justin sent Today at 20:34

W litanies he’s S9 +1 attack, +1 to wound

 

 

 

Justin sent Today at 20:34

Then finally strat gives him +1 S and 6+ wounds do double dmg

 

 

 

Justin sent Today at 20:34

And he’s 6 attacks on the charge

So if he’s super sayin powered up he’s 6 attacks at AP -2 flat 4 dmg, exploding 6s to hit, and 6s to wound cause an additional mortal wound and double dmg

Of course if it’s the assault phase his weapon on AP -3

Ours can top that.

 

Assuming assault doctrine of strat/ power puts him in assault doctrine. So he has exploding 6s and 6s also do mortals. Can also use savage strike for +1 to wound and we can heroic 6” with strat. We also get +1 to hit on charge..

We also have multiple ways in our army to mak opponent fight last. Even if they charge.

 

Fast version

Primaris wolf priest on bike 115+25=140

2 warlord traits:

Hunter +1 adv/charge. charge after adv.

Saga 24”-33” threat range

imperium sword +1 att, S

Master of sanctity

Benediction of fury +2s, -2 Ap, dmg 3

Mantra of strength +1 S att dmg

7att S8 -3 4 dmg MOS litany only

 

* with MOH spell and MOS 8att S9 -3 4dmg

Plus exploding 6s and 6s do mortals.

 

Version 2 more fighty.

 

Primaris wolf priest on bike 115+25=140

2 warlord traits:

 

imperium sword +1 att, S

Saga of wolf kin d3 attacks for shock assault

Master of sanctity

Benediction of fury +2s, -2 Ap, dmg 3

Mantra of strength +1 S att dmg

8-10 att S8 -3 3 dmg MOS litany only

 

* with MOH spell and MOS 9-11att S9 -3 4dmg

With exploding 6s and 6s also do mortals

 

You could sub out the saga of wolf kin for beast slayer.

 

I think ours are better.

Thank you for the help. I definitely will be getting a chaplain on a bike to run with the TWC and the Wolf lord on TW that is a chapter master.

With the exploding 6s, do the extras auto-mortal as well?

Or do they just add an extra dice to the wound roll?

[Karhedron]

I think I read that extra hits were just normal ones but I can't find the reference. Might be in the FAQ.

@karhedron

It's under the core rules FAQ on page six, under the "scoring additional hits" heading. Your are correct that they are just hits.

[VIth]

You can do a Space Wolves successor chapter with Born Heroes and Whirlwind of Rage (+1 to-hit and exploding 6s in CC) for three hits on a natural 6 to-hit while in Assault Doctrine.  

Nukebat: regarding the mortal wound, I think you're conflating things: on to-wound rolls of a natural 6, it causes a mortal wound in addition to any other damage, not "exploding" to-hit rolls.
