Wolf Guard math?

Recommended Posts

Am I doing the math correctly and the cost of the Wolf Guard with powered armor and Wolf Claws (pair) is the same as the Wolf Guard in TDA with the paired Wolf Claws? Seems a bit expensive, or am I missing something here? Trying to throw together my first lists with the new codex, and going to be a bit annoyed of the conversions I did for the powered armor WG end up being as expensive as the Terminator armored ones... Ah well, I guess 48 points for a "Vet SGT" is not too horrible...

This is more or less it. I find that Wolf Guard work best for me when everyone in the squad has the same type of armour. It maximizes my transport options to keep from mixing TDA and PA. 48 points is still cheaper than a Space Marine Vanguard Veteran with two Lightning Claws, and the higher cost for Terminators is to offset how inexpensive it is to have TDA and Power Weapon.

 

It's a good deal either way.

Well the TDA wolf Guard cannot embark in a rhino or razorback and will take up to spaces in any other transport.

 

So you need to decide if using two spaces or footslogging is worth that 2+ save

A terminator also cannot make sweeping advances.

 

Very good point. So if you're keen on catching that filthy fleeing unit you can't.

 

Of course it doesn't prevent you gunning them down but that unit's turn would effectively be wasted hunting an already hurt unit.
