Getting into the Wolves, and have a question on drop pod tactics. I'm creating a drop pod heavy list, but would like to keep some flexibility. I think the below is legal, but just want Dakka confirmation. Also, is it a good idea?

What I want to do is take 10 man units of GH so I can get the second free special weapon.
I also want to take a 10 model unit of Wolf Guard (for obvious reasons).

So, I'm planning to attach a WGPL in TA, kitted to suit the role of the GH squad it is associated with. For a vehicle killer, the WGTA would have combi-melta/chainfist, for anti infantry maybe combi-flamer/wolf claw or Frost Blade. But, in TA, the WGPL take up 2 transport slots in the pod, so I'd have to combat squad the GH to get the WGPL to fit. That's ideal, cos then I can drop both the GH special weapons, plus the WGTA , in the pod.

From the codex, the WGPL move to their squad just before deployment so I think I can then choose just before deployment whether I:

a) Drop 10 GH
b) Drop 5 GH plus the WGPL (I'll deploy the other 5 on the board)
c) Drop the pod empty.

Is that correct?

Should have noticed that none of the squads had Combat Squads - it's always the thing that isn't there that gets missed. :(

Separate question then, If have a wolf guard pack of 5, can I detach 3 to GH squads and leave 2? Or is the minimum I can be left with 3?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/549755/6009523.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/549755/6009523.page GMT Space Wolf Drop Pod Army - combat squad an 11 model unit ok? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/549755/6009541.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/549755/6009541.page GMT Space Wolf Drop Pod Army - combat squad an 11 model unit ok? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/549755/6009549.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/549755/6009549.page GMT
