hilander Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 I agree with bikes they make your profile T4(5), but thunderwolves make it T5 base from what I can tell(look at the Canis profile), that is why I think it is such a good choice;-) When you mix it with the same increase to your S, it looks like no-brainer to me;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/178646-importance-of-eternal-warrior/page/2/#findComment-2114142 Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Scotcho Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 You are correct brother, to represent the bond necessary to be able to ride a thunderwolf into the fray, anyone mounted on one becomes t5, not t4(5). Thats why my Wolf Lord will be riding one and using a storm shield and frostblade, after I figure out how to make ale kegs.

Big difference between that and the T5(4) of a Bike.

Gentlemanloser Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 In the same vien then the +1S happens before Weapons? So Thunderhammers and Power Fists would be 10 and not 9?

Zemox Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 And frostblades are freaking S6!!! Saga of the hunter and Saga of the warriorborn here i come, how many bonus attacks was it? 2? if that is the case you are getting on the charge 7 S6 WS6 I5 attacks on the charge!

Zemox Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Werent the Lord allowed two sagas? Because i was really looking forward to outflanking/infiltrating/scoutmoving/ my lord so he could get a first turn assault or arrive from the sides (even tough this is risky since he might not come in before the game is practically over) but infiltrating 18" away and first turn assaulting with him is was very very tempting.

Zemox Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Hmm good luck, at T5 2+ 3+ saves and with a 12" charge range i have difficulties believing it is going to get shot down, i am using this model i think:  http://privateerpress.com/hordes/gallery/c...lf-lord-morraig  Just need to know if the size is right.  Well anyway if i cant have both hunter and warrior born sagas i will try out the hunter one.

My Lord will be staying true to the Space Wolf creed and keeping both his feet firmly on the ground at all times and I'll deffinitely be giving him Eternal Warrior, if for no other reason than to prove a nuissance to my opponents who just want to get rid of him. :devil: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/178646-importance-of-eternal-warrior/page/2/#findComment-2114459 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quillen Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I am so buying that wolf riding guy and making him into something freaking cool. I figure 5 of them will make a wolf lord and 4 kick but side kicks to roll the enemy. still that will be a ton of points, but so cool to model.

Vanger Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Well yes, if you get T5 then EW is only good agains... Railguns, S10 'fexes, Demolisher cannons (or which has S10?) and Ork Warboss with PK. But its an insurance agains everything else: hidden PFs, lascannon pot shots, battlecannon, nobz, etc. Â Now I gave some tough to a Lord with Frost Blade, SS, Thunderwolf, and saga of the hunter :) coming in from the sides, he has an effective threat range of 19-24" not that bad of a surprise :D Â Edit: Maybe even runic armor, to get a 2+ save and melta bombs, but maybe that would be overkill... or not :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/178646-importance-of-eternal-warrior/page/2/#findComment-2114965 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanger Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Thunderwolve are fleet? I don't have the codex, but I would say they change the unit type to beast/cavalary. I base this assumption on the fact that Thunderwolf cav is considered that :D And Beasts/Cavalayra has not only 12" of assualt range, but also fleet. Let's hope it's not like the Juggernaut upgrade for Khorne Lords which doesn't change unit type.

Zemox Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I was thinking of using the whole model, i mean he is allready armed with a sword and a shield and the armor he is wearing could easily represent runic armor, but yeah the size have to be correct, preferably slightly larger than the standard wolf models.

Levitas Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 The warmachine wolf looks kinda like a giant rat... but then the canis one looks like an outcast from Bambi.

Zemox Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Youre right i tought the exact same thing when i saw it, but i think it is because of the red eyes wich are quite ratty, once you paint them grey or something cool it should look allot more wolfy.
