spectre312 Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 I'm fielding a 3 HQ 2500 point list. Now, I want to put Grimnar, Njal, and a rune priest (maybe even Ulrik himself) out there. Now in one troops slot I can field 10 WG. Can I split the wolf guard 4 and 4 into bodyguards and the other two as Pack leaders? Or How do I get 3-4 WG as bodyguards for each HQ, without using up all my troops or elites slots (I'm wanting to field 5 packs of Hunters)? If I wasn't taking grimnar this would be even worse, because potentially I'm losing 2 elite slots just to have WGBodyGuards on my hero's... Anyone with a the codex have any idea how this would work?

JamesI Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 The wolf guard can either stay as a single squad or split off to be pack leaders. They can't split into multiple smaller squads. If you want 2 4 man Wolf Guard Squads, you need to take 2 Squads, say each squad could be 5 men with 1 from each pulled off as pack leaders.

spectre312 Posted September 30, 2009 Author Share Posted September 30, 2009 Hmm. Well, I guess as long as Grimnar is in the list, two wg packs aren't bad, it still leaves them as scoring. As it is I'm building a List for Grimnar, and a List for Bjorn's retinue. So either way, my swarms of Hunters are going to see the field. Thanks for the help!!!

Oldenhaller Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 however as grimnar makes them troops and you want 4 packs of grey hunters this isn't an issue take 2 5 man packs of eaach as two scoring units which allow for TDA with Cyclone to be put into grey hunter packs and then 4 further packs of greyhunters making 6 troops ~O Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/180025-splitting-up-wolf-guard-as-bodyguards/#findComment-2131044 Share on other sites More sharing options...

spectre312 Posted September 30, 2009 Author Share Posted September 30, 2009 I was hoping to field 5 packs of hunters to make use of that free plasma rifle and melta. But I can make do with 4. I do wish I could combat squad though... I want lots of bodies on the field, so I can firebase and use others with razors to screen and flank. Guess I'm just going to have to drop more skyclaws on the field as harassers.
