Grey Mage Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Yes. Mark of the Wulfen *MotB* can be used by a wolfgaurd... wolf gaurd can take a thunderhammer... thus a Wulfen can take a thunderhammer. Good stuff eh?

Wolf89 Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I'm not a fan of giving him a thunder hammer... main reasoning is because he's meant for troop shocking... if he's hitting something he can't hurt with his power weapon, then he shouldn't be assaulting it in the first place... if you're thinking (just in case of vehicles) then give him the cheap melta bombs... otherwise you should manuvre away from dreads and the like...

Grey Mage Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Mostly its the fact that it goes last.... a single character in fifth edition is hard enough to get to a spot... letting it die before it can attack AFTER it gets there.... thats sad.

Precisely my point.... I think in the next C:SW they should have a more "dedicated" section to MotW models, and give them the option to have fenrisian wolves join them... now THAT would be sweet and amazing and omg just down right fun.

Bran Scalphunter Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Well, as things stand now, the best kit for a Wulf Guard is: power weapon, storm shield, wolf pelt, frags, melta bombs 3+ Armor, 3++ v shooting and close combat, able to hurt vehicles and massacre infantry with plenty of power weapon attacks.

WolfLordLars Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Thats crazy talk Bran. Never take a SS with a PW, you loose the 2nd CC attack. Might as well take a single lightning claw, you wont get it anyway. I run my MotW with 2LC, WP, Frag, and Melta.

I mean yea 2 LC is mean as all hell, but for a tournament setting the PW SS combo is well worth it... even against Imp guard... hitting you on 3's?... a power weapon is bound to wound ya...

If you insist on taking a SS, fine. But, take a single LC rather than a PW. Sure, little more expensive, but you have already lost the 2nd CC attack (thanks to the SS), might as well re-roll wounds.
