Does Njal have fancy special rules that set him apart from just being an ML3 psyker?

Do runepriests have any additional rules to let them deny the witch easier?

Can lone wolves take any sort of transport?

Details on the Wolf Standard?

Thank you for doing all this! I am super sad to hear MoTW is gone, I loved it so much. Some conversions will be shelved for a while I guess.

I could see them removing MotW as a basic troop choice, allowing you to only put it on Lone Wolves/Wolf lords or an actual Wulfen. I'm sads it's gone entirely

1)Njal can reroll one failed psychic test per turn. Nightwing is assault d6 s3 ap-. He has adamantium will through his staff which also grants a DTW reroll.
2) No

Lucas is 80 and can only join boodclaws and if there is a unit of bloodclaws in the detachment he doesnt use up a slot. The same with arjac and wolfguard for 115pts. Lucas opponents have -3 WS in a challenge through the pelt instead of the old effect.

Is the codex in the same format as the Orks, mostly photo pictures with very little new art work?

Agies Grimm:The "Learn to play, bro" mentality is mostly just a way for someone to try to shame you by implying that their metaphorical nerd-wiener is bigger than yours. Which, ironically, I think nerds do even more vehemently than jocks.

Everything is made up and the points don't matter. 40K or Who's Line is it Anyway?

Thankyou.

One more question. How do you as a Space Wolfe player feel of the new codex? Rules wise and looks wise and what ever wise.

I feel like im done with sw now. Not in the sense of giving them up. See theres the new dreads (i already own 6 unused dreads) than theres the flyer (i will eventually get one) and then theres santa logan, which in my opinion doesnt look very appealing. So theres nothing left i could get for my collection after ive gotten the flyer. Nothing to work on or add or whatever that interests me. So in that sense im kinda disappointed about the lack of something really cool and new like when the TWC was released back in the day in the previous codex.

There are 4 or 5 new artworks one of them is about santa logan ... so i dont really like it.

Ruleswise i think there will be a way to make space wolves playable from a competitive perspective as well as from a fluff standpoint. Nevertheless in the latter they lost a lot of their special flavour.

At least thats my perspective now without having written a list or played a single game ... so jeah.





Ah just spotted that a twc now gives +1 wound for the model riding. So a twc lord has 4 wounds now.

Additionally runic armor now confers a 6++ instead of the old effect that only worked with psychic powers.

I know this is a broad question ,and thank you very much for answering my questions so far! 2 more quick questions.

The wolf standard, thanks for pointing out that I missed it. Is it specific to GH? Or can TWC, Claws and wolf guard bring it?
I didn't see a cost listed for the banner either. Seems like pending on the cost, it could be a good alternative to giving each GH a CC weapon for the bonus attack.

While I am peeved there is no more chooser of the slain, now I have some nice objective markers I guess.
I feel like a lot of the new books in 6th and 7th havent brought all too much to the table in way of new units. Space marines brought in a few new units/models, and Daemons got hooked up like there is no tomorrow. Everyone else seems to get maybe 1 unit and 1 big model, maybe also some models for units that didn't have models.

Really like what you are doing here for everyone but im confused - twice in my time on dakka I have been cautioned by mods and other dakkarites for asking points costs of specific things. One on the day of the ork dex release (I bought it two days later) and one on a different occasion.
A question to the mods more than the OP here: How come it is one rule for one and a different rule for everybody else?
Not that I mind this thread, in fact, I would encourage it. It just seems, no sorry, IS, double standards.

There's a difference between asking for rules when you don't have the book (i.e. Ork codex is released and you're asking for rules) and asking for rules leaks. Basically, Dakka is not a replacement for published rules. Unpublished rules, on the other hand...

Its probably because the codex isnt actually out yet.

I would also re-emphasize those questions-

Do Runepriests have access to Divination, Biomancy and what else?

He/she has the rules. It is the exact same thing as having the dex. Timing of release makes no difference - this thread can still be viewed on the day of release for those who don't have it, giving exactly the same effect as having asked for rules on that day.

No, the time of release most definitely does make a difference.

If you have a problem with your warning, PM the mod in question and ask them about it. I'm explaining why this thread is okay and your other threads weren't though.
