Njal stat line shows he has a 3+ save. He wears Runic Armor which gives a 2+ save.

Nice to see what falls through the cracks :(

Errrm... What?

He has a 2+ save... In all 3 Locations, Unit Entry, Summary and Army list.

Found one. It directs you to the Iron priest for the description of the chooser of the slain, when if clearly should refer you to the Rune Priest section

Ha, yes, nice one!

They even get the page number wrong!

Holy crap, my buddy misquoted. He mentioned and I looked at save from 5 feet away. Should have looked at my codex before opening mouth.

Another. On page 76, it shows a picture of a wolf scout with a a storm bolter, while you can't equip a wolf scout with a storm bolter.

Yeah, well I guess he's on a crusade with all those BT whirlwinds and dual CCW having dreadnoughts.

Canis Wolfborn does not move as cavalry.

Wolf guard in an army led by Grimnar attached to long fangs, scouts and bikers score.

**Thanatos73**

I don't know if it's been mentioned elsewhere, if I just missed it but it is never stated that SW Rhinos and Razorbacks CAN'T transport Terminators. In the fluff entry it states 10 model capacity for Rhinos and 6 for Razorbacks, but it does not exclude models in Terminator armor. Same for the army list entry. Don't know if this was just omitted or if the Space Wolves figured out how to fit a Terminator into a Rhino.

**Defiler**

As for the line question, I think it's supposed to represent no width - ie - you can only catch models with vertical depth and not catching models with any sort of horizontal distance between them.

Canis has the Cavalry unit type in his entry. So, huh?

Wolf Guard attached don't create scoring units, Wolf Guard "units" score.

What are you on?

**Darkness**

I only read the unit entry for canis not the army list part.

As for the wolf guard part I thinks it arguable.

Plus, whats with the insults? A simple correction is enough.

**Defiler**

It's not arguable. Unless you're claiming that a unit of "Longfangs" with a Wolf Guard attached is now a "Wolf Guard Unit."

Says that TDA's cant be in anything but a land raider or drop pod in the armour description.
Speaking of drop pods, Bjorn has a fear of flying? whats up with that?

**glory**

I have to say that even using the edge of a measuring tape is incorrect. While it's true that using the edge is good way of simulating a theoretical one-dimensional object, my complain is that the microscopical irregularities of the edge of the tape means that you're in fact simulating a squiggle, not a straight line.

So there.

Ah, that would explain it since I only read the Runic Armor description there. And Bjorn has a fear of not seeing Russ again to know why he was left behind/to fight at his side again. Least that's what I took from his fluff blurb.

Errrm, read the rules for TDA. It says it there.
