hehe i like a LOT the use of the Lone Wolves in TDA w/ Chainfist. great stuff there! definitely share how they work for you, please =)

double character dread - such space wolf.
I've done it with Bjorn and a Blizzard Shield Vet, and it works great - if placing the front AV's properly, and when assaulting AV making sure they'll have proper facing after that AV is eliminated (cuz they can't consolidate).

I've used Iron Priest 'stars', 3 with 12 pups, and they've themselves eliminated 1k points of ravenwing by themselves, with 2 IP's still standing and running around some more.
maybe get some pups for the two WGBL's so you'll have 8 dogs in total, should suffice.

throw Helm of Durfast on that Runepriest if you're going tempastus, for some amazing living lightning

Callidus is something I've been looking at too.
For Sure.

Sadly tho, you need another elite choice to make your CotGW legit.
Lone Wolves do not count - and in fact cannot be used unless you have units like blood claws or grey hunters which for each squad allow you to use a Lone Wolfe.

pulling a WGBL won't break you, and after figuring out how to get a legit Lone Wolfe inclusion, you may work it out better


I think you'll need something to either deny the enemy a ton of shooting, or the speed to hide them charge without receiving that firepower.
the Herald perks make one tough... but idk if you'll be tough enough on that alone. Somehow, gotta get more board presence and 'threat' to divide up what'd otherwise be "focus all firepower on their super star destroyer" which'd drop your Star to it's knees =/]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/693156/8703793.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/693156/8703793.page GMT

Especially on an FnP dual wounded Eternal Warrior like this guy. Chainfist... spells doom to ANY THING.

my answer to instant-death/S10 (my best friend throws vindi squadrons at me every time i play him haha, he once wiped out 26 space marine models in that single larger blast!) is to have Look Out Sir rolls to the puppies, and make that character rolling it have a SS of his own (preferably the pack leader of the TWC than the WGBL/Lord - just in case).

Wolf Guard bikers, meh... i mean it's not *bad* but they are a ... hmmm... "Shock and Awe" unit lol. I used to drop them 7-count with plasma and have Ulrik in the squad to grant reroll 1's. it WAS M E A N. then they've been spent, their scare-factor gone, and are counted as the same priority as normal Marines for the rest of the game. If the points are worth it to you, then cool beans yo. i've found more power than these for the pts.

I like two dreads... however you gotta really be careful about how you place them.
Place them to -live-. then, when it's later game, they stand out as Kniggits do the early game.
well, almost haha.

i mean, definitely get them in there, CC is where the belong.
But it's as easy as crushing an empty can as it is to crush a Dread, but once they meet CC that unit is done. Then, hopefully, you'll get another charge out of them before they fall.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/693156/8704807.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/693156/8704807.page GMT

New FAQ isn't fully official but is is being played, says only a single grenade (including meltabombs) can be used per unit each phase.

I see some points that could be better spent, all models having SS's, dual wolf claws. That's just me


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Herald is tough, for sure. But yeah, its borderline good, however IMO on the opposite side of useable.

You have no option but to meet CC.
That might not be a bad thing, however you'll need to put on your dancing shoes, cuz it's a very involved process to not get all shot up. Even overwatch can sting when doing it enough.

If you can avoid their fire, and meet your goals, then sure - it will work.

People like lascannon dev's cuz they're easy to use, always do a good job cuz they have something good against anything with exceptional range to do it in.

I personally don't like heavy weapons teams, but I want to express it'll be a thing to continue squeezing out the potency of each unit turn by turn.

That's all part of the fun that I enjoy in SW =)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/693156/8706936.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/693156/8706936.page GMT WG and WGTDA. About the dual claws .. one additional attack is nice, but invulnerable is critical in more situations. The downside is, you paid for nothing when the opponent brings the Thunderwolves down by dakka, but then the Wolves are not automatically doomed by Demolisher-esque pie plates.

The new FAQ ..hm, I read about that. The thing with grenades is sht. But it looks like Spear of Russ will allow Demolishers to move 12" then fire ordnance. What do you think about this?

I see your point about Heavy Weapon Squads. Personally I love to field small units of Long Fangs. They sometimes survive the entire game and cause lots of attriton or draw enough attention off the important units ...but often enough they are just bull, vaporising in turn 1.

Well, I'm pretty sure about this core army.
