Thunderpup Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Just wondering, does the servitor arm gets +1 str also? And while i have your attention; would you take an Iron Priest and 4 c-wolves over a lone wolf and 2 f-wolves? I've tried running lone wolves in TDA and PA with TH+SS. I'm just not having any luck with them. (either tank hunting or troop harrassement) Suggestions? Thoughts? Help? thanks, Pup p.s. All of my games have been against marines of one sort or another, not sure how much that's effected my performance. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/187064-iron-priest-on-twm/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woulfeheart Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Looking at the Iron Priest entry, the Servo Arm attack is made separately from the Iron Priest's attacks, and made at S8, I1. So no, it doesn't get the +1 from the Thunderwolf. As for the Iron Priest vs. Lone Wolf, if you're using him as a walking hammer, the Iron Priest may be a better choice, depending on how you run him. I know I've been playing around with the idea of an Iron Priest on a Mech-Thunderwolf, with a full retinue of Cyberwolves. The only thing stopping me is the points cost. It would definitely be a scary unit from the other side of the board, though. Especially when modeled correctly.

Grey Mage Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 I wouldnt take that unit... because its not legal. But I would consider a TWM and 4 Cyberwolves without the other wolves. For my money though, Id keep him cheap- TWM, 2 Cyberwolves, WTT. Or footslog with 4.

Woulfeheart Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 What's not legal? If you're talking about my Mech-Thunderwolf comment, it's just modeled all mecha, with no in-game effect other than being a Thunderwolf.

Valerian Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 He cant take fenrisian wolves, just cyberwolves. GM, I think that you've misread his post. He's asking which of the two units that you would use : either 1. An Iron Priest on TWM with 4 Cyberwolves, or 2. A Lone Wolf with 2 Fenrisian Wolves I believe both are valid choices. For me, I'd go with the Lone Wolf, but that's mostly because I think the designers have gotten the rules for the Iron Priest or Techmarine right since Rogue Trader.

Grey Mage Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Oops. Yes, your quite right, I did misread that. Id go for the TH+SS TDA Lone Wolf over the Iron Priest in that case- more survivable.
