kickme829 Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 ok so ulrik is 200 points but he has wolf helm of russ which is only allowed in 2000 points or more. Does this mean hes not allowed to be in any matches that are 2000 points or lower?

Max_Dammit Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 If you go RAW, yes, just ask if you can use him, the helm is useless anyway Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/162282-ulrik-question/#findComment-1906958 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEFF4i Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 I just use my Ulrik model as a regular Wolf Priest with Plasma Pistol. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/162282-ulrik-question/#findComment-1906967 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Tancred Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 How I understand it he's not got a rule to say he can only be used in 2000+ games, just the helm. So you can use him in smaller games just not use the helm of russ.

Long Fang Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 As Max said the piece of wargear is useless now anyway soooo. You should be able to use him anyway as Brother Tancred said.  I ether use mine as a regular wolf priest or  My gaming club allows me to use him and knock off the cost of his wargear that no longer does anything, tbh without this cost reduction he is ridiculously expense.

JEFF4i Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 jeff dont really care what you use him as. So i can use ulrik in 500-1999 matches?> Â You're a friendly one. I was offering a suggestion as to how else you could use your Ulrik model, that way you aren't using 200 points of HQ in a 500 point match, especially when a decent portion of his wargear is useless. *pat Kick on head* Â I took for granted that I saw my post as a play off of Max's post, rather than fully clarifying myself. For that, I am sorry. I do mean to say though, out of cost-effectiveness, Ulrik doesn't really have it. I am with you though, he is my favorite Wolf model, the helmet and Crozius are beautiful, so I play him as aforementioned. Again, I am sorry for the misinterpretation as I should have fully made myself clear.

Grey Mage Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 If your rude, then people wont post anything you do need. The guy was offering an alternative in case you felt attached to a beautiful model. Ok? Â As for the 160pts, were the wrong people to ask... talk to your local gaming group. As for the lightning claws.... depends on where your getting the claws from. Most of the current models will be simply to large in the hands to fit on him.

JEFF4i Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Mine had arms on, I'm afraid. Doesn't mean you can't do it, just gotta snag a fine tooth hack saw and work your way through it. ;) Â If you do it, it'll look absolutely beautiful with those claws though, so you gotta keep us up to date.

Long Fang Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 If yer after claws you should look into the new Wolf guard model being released as a collectors item not available yet (UK March 7th) and I'm not sure the claws are quite what you had in mind but they do come separate from the body.

Thylacine Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 kickme829. Â It has always been the convention, that if the Special Character is allowed then the weapons or wargear that is included in his price is allowed too. Â At least that is the case in the UK and in OZ, you Yanks seem to have a different view of things. Â Â Â Â Â Â ok so ulrik is 200 points but he has wolf helm of russ which is only allowed in 2000 points or more. Does this mean hes not allowed to be in any matches that are 2000 points or lower?

Grey Mage Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Agreed, this thread is the first time Ive heard of him being restricted because of that. One reason I was told he was priced so high was because he could get you cool wargear in small games.

GunnarRedsun Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 i agree with grey mage and thylacine, i didn't know that wargear could restrict you like that, as my understanding was that special charactors brought their wargear regardless, and that theirs didn't count against you in terms of limits (i.e. points or number allowed) and such unless noted otherwise.

Bran Scalphunter Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 I noticed that bit a while ago but never actually have seen the No Helm of Russ in less than 2000pts rule enforced. Possibly because I hardly run Ulrik, I just use the mini, which is rather nice in my opinion.
