Aurick Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Pro: +2 Armor Save, +5 Invul Save, and more weapon choices? Con: The points they cost and that they take double the room in a transport / pod? Edit: I guess the fact that Space Wolf Terms wont teleport either can be a con as well when compared to other chapters, but oh well. As far as newbie questions go, I have a lot of leniancy on them, especially since I'm really new myself, but this seems to be a really simple question to answer if you just looked up Terminator armor in your codex, assuming you have one.

Frontline989 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Here's two. Wolf Guard in power armor can ride in a rhino or razorback. Wolf Guard with TDA can have a Cyclone Missile Launcher.

Hjaertrr Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Firstly putting all of the letter in words such as please costs nothing and missing them out only serves to irritate people, also from your lack of knowledge it seems that you perhaps have not read the codex/ main rulebook. If that is the case I suggest you do so. Anyway... Terminator Armor: Pros - Better weapon selection and ranged firepower (can carry heavy weapons), better armour save, gain invulnerable save. Cons - Cannot sweeping advance, cannot ride in rhino/ razorback, counts as 2 models in every other transport, more expensive in points costs. Power Armor: Pros - Can do the things that Terminator armoured WG can't (see cons above), cheaper points cost, only count as one model in transports etc. Can ride bikes or use jump packs. Cons - Worse armor save, no invulnerable save, can't take heavy weapons. Think thats most things. Cheers.

Geirulfr Frostmoon Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Sorry, but where does it say that WG in TDA cannot ride rhinos? Cause all I thought was that they take up 2 spaces Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/186656-newbie-question/#findComment-2207432 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Runner Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 It is listed on the Space Marine codex pg 102, in the Wargear section, and in the Space Wolf codex pg 61 also in the Wargear section. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/186656-newbie-question/#findComment-2207434 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geirulfr Frostmoon Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Wow, I had totally missed that section in the SW codex... and here I thought since it wasn't listed in transport we could've got away with it. But thanks for the info. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/186656-newbie-question/#findComment-2207439 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heimdal Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Hello there and welcome to the board, Verseau B&C actually requests from its fraters, in the rules section, that they do not use chat or "leet-speak" when writing in the forums. Write here as you would do in school. Other than that Hjaertrr pretty much nailed the pro´s and con´s except for leaving out the Wolf Guard pack leaders bit. Wolf Guard is cheaper and more effective with a power fist than Grey Hunters and Blood Claws. With one attack more statwise and cost a few points less they are indeed a good choice for a source of fists (if you can get at least the mandatory three WG).
