Brother Tholath Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Fellow Space Wolves, I am a keen collector and have been debating with myself on which marine army to get to battle against my brother with (He's getting Chaos Marines) and I have after much though decided on the amazing Space Wolves. CC is so my thing. I have one question, what HQs can Ranek bump their WS. If it's anyone, does that me I could field a Ven Dreadnought with WS 6? Thanks for your help Tholath Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156589-raneks-mentor-abillity/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPetersson Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 In the rules for Ranek/Ulrik it says 'one other model' so there's no rule against using it on a VenDread but it would be terribly unfluffy... The only model you can't give it to is Ulrik himself, Ragnar and Logan. I would argue that you also can't give it to an allied model but again, that's fluff rather than RAW as far as I can see...

LPetersson Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Oh, and it's worth bearing in mind that he has about 45 points of wargear that's worthless now, but if +1WS is worth that amount to you... :yes: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156589-raneks-mentor-abillity/#findComment-1830486 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf89 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Oh, and it's worth bearing in mind that he has about 45 points of wargear that's worthless now, but if +1WS is worth that amount to you... :yes: Considering WS 7+ in some chaos lists, it's best to just get a wolf tooth necklace... it'll save you a lot of points and it's far superior. ^_^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156589-raneks-mentor-abillity/#findComment-1830492 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonny Wolf Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Ragnar and Logan can't take the +up as it's already in their profiles as being trained by him.

Don't forget about Ulrik himself as LPetersson so kindly stated. <_< The only model you can't give it to is Ulrik himself, Ragnar and Logan.I would argue that you also can't give it to an allied model but again, that's fluff rather than RAW as far as I can see...

Wolf89 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Skimmed by that too fast...apologies Brother Petersen. It's ok, I originally wrote the same thing, then caught it before posting and changed my post. I like the idea about the Ironclad... but honestly I still can't justify how many points Ulrik is, it just doesn't seem worth it against chaos considering the WS of common chaos and the rest of the chaos that are way higher than WS5. With getting a semi-similar Wolf Priest, you should have enough to buy at least 5 wolf tooth necklaces that will serve you far better, and trust me, it hurts when avatars, bloodthirsters, wyches, etc. are getting hit on 3+'s with power fists...

Jarl Kjaran Coldheart Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 oh trust me, i wouldnt ever take ulrik. but the ironclad idea is tempting... the only way i would use him if i got him without paying his points cost. a 2 wound model for anything more than 150 points??? forget about it. wolf lord kieran Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156589-raneks-mentor-abillity/#findComment-1832696 Share on other sites More sharing options...
obs0l3te Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Sorry for the necromancy in raising the dead thread here but.... How is is wargear worthless... the only thing worthless in the fang of morkai the rest can be found on page 31 in the space wolf summary section. Wolf Helm of Russ: 4+ .... save. its on page 31...?
