Castlerook Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Don't know if this has already been spotted and posted. I was looking at the codex last night and noticed a Wolf Scout armed with a storm bolter(Pg. 76, Second one down on the left). Thinking it looked good, I went to the army list entry, and noticed Wolf Scouts don't have any options for Storm Bolters. Either someone got a little too carried away with the converting or Phil left out the option by mistake (Or heaven forbid, they expect people to count them as heavy bolters.....) Anyone else notice any equipment errors in the book? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/180596-wolf-scouts-equipment-error/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ragnarok Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 :) Yeah, somebody got carried away with the plastics. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/180596-wolf-scouts-equipment-error/#findComment-2138577 Share on other sites More sharing options...

WG Vrox Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Well, maybe there were going to take out shotguns and give our guys storm bolters, then thought twice about it and forgot to put back the shotgun as a option.

Vrox I wish we could still take shotguns, I loved them but they can now be used for my Arbites force.

WG Vrox Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 speaking of skyclaws, whoever put them together does not understand that BC are the younger looking heads. For a second there when I saw that picture, I thought it was proof that WG can join SC.

Commissar Volker Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Plus, there is a Wolf Scout armed with a Power Weapon and Bolt pistol, which is now not permitted. You have to swap the bolt pistol FOR the power weapon if you want one, leaving you with a PW + CCW combo.

whitewolfmxc Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 lol why did they change bolt pistol with power weapons.............what logic is that.........

You have to swap the bolt pistol FOR the power weapon if you want one, leaving you with a PW + CCW combo. Ha, hadn't noticed that one. I'll be ignoring that by the way and trading in the old CCW. I'm sure no one will mind....at least no one that I'd be playing anyway.

Hfran Morkai Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Any also no camo cloak >< This one confuses me but I understand our scouts kick butt yet they are veterans and don't have access to "rare camo cloaks" wheras you could field an entire 'nilla company of scouts with them. Shame because my sniper scouts could do with an improved cover save.

whitewolfmxc Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 The build i find interesting is wolf preist with saga of the hunter teaming with scouts , grants them out flank (they already have it) but also stealth ........so that with a team of sniper scouts .....what do you guys think ? on topic: What was the reason for trading with pistols with power weapons ??? is it just a misprint ?

The reason is streamlining- they didnt want us to be able to field five scouts with two power weapons, two plasma pistols, and a meltagun- thus we had to have the PW and Pistols in a single option, and for ease of writing they just left as "you trade your bolt pistol". Really, thats all it was. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/180596-wolf-scouts-equipment-error/#findComment-2143992 Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitewolfmxc Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Grey mage: mate lol that doesnt give them the excuse to be lazy........and dumb lol , so your saying its not intended that we lose our pistol but because they just dont have the time to write another line ? So we can still keep one model having pistol and power weapon ?

WolfLordLars Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Uh, WG can join skyclaw units.. as far as I can tell. I like the bigger scout units, but the lack of viable options for builds is annoying.

sandersn Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Uh, WG can join skyclaw units.. as far as I can tell. I like the bigger scout units, but the lack of viable options for builds is annoying. I didn't see that as an option under Wolf Guard Pack (pg. 86). You can assign them to Blood Claws, Swiftclaw Bike Packs, Grey Hunters, Wolf Scouts, and Long Fangs... but not Skyclaw units. They can get jump packs, but can't join the unit. Odd. Of course you could make a Wolf Lord with a jump pack to give the Skyclaws a little extra punch (and leadership), but it doesn't seem like Wolf Guard are an option. Maybe their patience in dealing with the young pups only goes so far. Blood Claws are manageable... but Blood Claws with jump packs? No thanks.

Im not saying it was the right way to go, just that we wont be seeing a FAQ on this one, because they just did it for simplicity.
