Spacefrisian Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I was thinking about using Ragnar but how would be the best use for him? In a Landraider filled with Wolfguard armed with Frostblades or something else (except Bloodclaws) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/185003-using-ragnar/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hfran Morkai Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Wolf Guard are nasty, but if you're going to do that make sure you have enough points so as not to compromise the rest of your force, and mix up the weapons a bit, a powerfist might help with any really tough enemies, because a ton of strength 6 attacks is obviously not enough. Grey Hunters and Ragnar is a cheaper option but less customisable, then again a perfect unit for taking and holding objectives, striking before most opponents and then being able to use bolters, but then Ragnar either sits with them or goes hunting by himself which seems a waste Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/185003-using-ragnar/#findComment-2187146 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logain the Ranger Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Landraider with Wolf Claw guys pops into my mind. In the old codex I would just drop him in with powerfist termies and made my opponent choose to shot at them or the foot sloggers running up. With the nerf of the pods carrying capacity that plan doesn't work anymore. You could foot slog him with your army if you have that approach or Rhino rush your army.

Spacefrisian Posted November 17, 2009 Author Share Posted November 17, 2009 Wel they will be backed up by something along the lines of 3 full units of Greyhunters in rhinos.

Terrahawk Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I think a Land Raider of some variant is a must in order to quarantee the charge and get him and his boys to close combat distance safely. PA Wolf Guard with WCs, PWs and FBs sounds like a good deal, with a couple of Fists or THammers thrown in the mix for the big baddies.

Spacefrisian Posted November 17, 2009 Author Share Posted November 17, 2009 For big dadies i could consider ditching 1 WG for Ulrik, S6 weapons on charge hitting on +1 I with re-rolls to hit doesn't sound very bad and its fluffy (i think) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/185003-using-ragnar/#findComment-2187211 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodgers37 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I know lots of things get said about what should be used at diffrent pionts, but i would not use a Land Raider in 1500 pionts, unless whats inside it will kill over half the other side's army..... I thought, oh i want a Logan army, how about putting him and 5 Wolf Guard in a Redeemer, oh its 800 pionts...... They cost too much for what they can do in 1500..... it would probably be safe footsloggin, or even putting Ragnar, in a rhino with power armour Wolf Guard, with his assault bonus, the more the merrier...... thats what i think anyway...

Madsakre Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 My fav is ragnar in a land raider redeemer with 9 pa wolf guards & 1 tda wolfguard. They would be kitted with 2 powerfists & 1 chainfist + heavy flamer. But its one hellaexpensive unit: Ragnar + Redeemer W/ MM + the wolf guards = 745 Im thinking about using this unit in a 2000 points list, but just maybe. It would definetly kill anything it faced.. Maybe - Abbadon + Khârn & khorne Berzerkers in a land raider(i've seen this) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/185003-using-ragnar/#findComment-2187266 Share on other sites More sharing options...
