Wolf Lord Cuneglas Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Okay, I've been reading through the codex and trying to come up with some killer combos. GW did a good job of (Yes I'm a fan boy) removing sneaky combos (Saga of hunter used w/ thunderwolf, jetpacks, bikes, etc.). So tell me what you think. Ragnar + his 2 wolves for wargear + 15 wolves. Canis Wolfborne or another lord with Wolfkin saga. This turns the 17 wolves into I6 (on the charge) A2 +D3 at S5. That's just the wolves, Ragnar will obviously be a wrecking ball on his own, but think about how much area a mob like that could cover, the tricky part is getting Ragnar far enough ahead so he doesn't slow the pack down. Follow that with Canis or another Wolf Lord on TWC and you have a Destructo force on your hands. The 15 wolves are under 130 pts. That's a super cheap assault force that will ruin someone's day. Feed back is appreciated. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/184760-ragnar-wolves-lots-of-death/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf Lord Jukes Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 If nothing else it would look fantastic on the table :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/184760-ragnar-wolves-lots-of-death/#findComment-2183930 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Lord Cuneglas Posted November 13, 2009 Author Share Posted November 13, 2009 If the Thunderwolf Cav is behind them, it would be a great screen. Those cheap models protecting those expensive models is a good trade off.

Wolf Guard Hengist Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Not got the rule book on hand but can beasts enter a transport? Would be funny to stick that lot in a LR Crusader.

Ullr Direfang Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 i don't remember off hand, (this could also be me just remembering the last codex) but i think they take up one transport spot. i don't have the codex or rule book on me at the moment though.

stinkenheim Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 the olves taken as wargear take up 2 spaces now, they are fatties like terminatour armoured people... as for the fast attack wolves i honestly don't know but i would think that they are not allowed inside a transport.... could you imagine the mess theyd make, youd have to get the bondsmen in to clean it out after and i don't think they'd like that...

Grey Mage Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Beasts/cavalry cant enter a transport outside of apocalypse. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/184760-ragnar-wolves-lots-of-death/#findComment-2184292 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiplash Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 the olves taken as wargear take up 2 spaces now, they are fatties like terminatour armoured people... they've obviously done this so you cant have a land raider full of wolves on their own with the ability of assaulting anything within 36" (tank moving flat out 18"(?) + 12" charge range + 6" fleet of foot) now that would be killer!

Grey Mage Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 They can. They do however force the unit to move at the slowest speed- so a WL on a bike would only move six, and when assualt came he would slow the wolves down to 6 aswell, and wouldnt benefit from fleet. So usually its a bad idea.... usually. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/184760-ragnar-wolves-lots-of-death/#findComment-2184874 Share on other sites More sharing options...
