Couple of Questions regarding WG rules

[Brother Nemiel]

Greetings Sons of Russ!

 

Everyone loading up their mead supplies for the coming week end?

 

I have two questions which I would like to get answers to. I feel like giddy like a blood claw that our fine chapter finally gets a new dex. So, hoping that I don't have to wait until saturday to get my answers.. Here goes:

 

1. Regarding the 5 WG requirement to get access to an assault cannon for the WG termies. Are the WG assigned to other units counted towards that limit? Could I have 7 WGs, assign three of them to GH units thus having 4 WG left (to be placed in a DP with a Rune priest). Can I assign a assault cannon to one of the 4 termies in the DP or not?

 

2. Does the unique wargear requirement count to Wolfguards too? Can I have a couple of WG termies equipped with Storm bolter and power fists? or do they all have to have unique wargear lists? Or does that apply only to characters? Or are WG assigned to squads counted as characters?

 

Cheers!

ad 1) it is per 5 WG taken so it does not matter if you assign them later to the squads or not

 

ad 2) no they don't have to be that unique, there are no rules to enforce that, but if you ask Phil he would like all of them to be different;-)

Thanks for the answers Hilander!

 

For the sake of fluffiness one could try to make them as unique as possible :(
