White Hunter Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 So I was wondering, what everyone thought of mixed armor in WG squads and what the ration of PA to TDA WG should be if they are in a land raider. Or if they should even be mixed at all? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/182262-mixing-wolf-guard/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Mage Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 In a LR? I wouldnt mix unless I had too- and heres why. WG- 2x WCs- 48pts WG- TDA, 2x WCs- 48pts. WG- PF+C-F- 43pts. WG- TDA, PF+CF- 48pts. WG- TH+SS- 68pts. WG- TDA, TH+SS- 63pts. WG- PW+BP-28pts. WG- PW+SB-33pts, -1 A. As you can see, for whatever reason, WG in TDA are cheap... usually within 5pts of their AP brethren, and occaisionlly cheaper. Unless your just going for stock powerweapons or Rhino Transports TDA is the way to go.

You're completely correct, GM, but you can only have 5 TDA-equipped Wolfguard in a regular Landraider, or 6 in a Redeemer. What I think White Hunter is out for, is the "sweet spot" where you have a larger mass of bodies at the cost of fewer TDA-equipped men. I've been tinkering with this myself, and I think it's going to be either 3x TDA, 4x PA, or 2x TDA, 6x PA. Mind you, it's going to be an incredibly expensive squad unless you're a bit stingy on the wargear.

Grey Mage Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Agreed. Sometimes just throwing a cheap 18-28pt body in there is the way to go- something alot of people had problems with when Vangaurd came out. Just because they dont have PW doesnt mean they arent a WG.
