SgtTelion Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Hi guys, This may be a stupid question, but.... Can we take legion of the damned? Is it just an oversight that they are not in the SW codex? I bought them all for my ultramarines, who i have now given up on in favour of the wolves. So thats all really, can we take them?

CainTheHunter Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Oh, here goes another one, just after that question about LS Storm.... The answer being - of course we cannot, just as the Thunderfire cannon, vermnguards ann, strangely, Storm Land Speeder.

kittenofdeath Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 not in the codex, cant be played unless you oponent is a really nice guy (lucky for my 5 man LotD squad, I have good players near me) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/189716-legion-of-the-damned/#findComment-2247238 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CainTheHunter Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 The only way, I think, You could use them is Apoc - IIRC they had a datasheet. But in Apoc You could use anything.

antique_nova Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 the guy clearly hasn't got the codex. looks like they are jealous of our new toys :). But yea, the legal way to do this is in apocalypse games. thanks antique_nova Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/189716-legion-of-the-damned/#findComment-2247265 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Runner Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Oh, here goes another one, just after that question about LS Storm.... The answer being - of course we cannot, just as the Thunderfire cannon, vermnguards ann, strangely, Storm Land Speeder. You don't have to bite off his head! :mellow: . Like they have already said, if you like the models and want to use them, then you can with Apoc games. But I do agree that it doesn't make sense fluff-wise that they wouldn't appear from nowhere to save the day for the SW as they would for any other SM Chapter. It's just a decision for game balance purposes, although a crappy one nonetheless.

nurglespuss Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Yeah it does seem odd, but maybe the more 'vanilla' chapters need the legions help more than we, the blood angels, black templars and dark angels do? Perhaps its down to interference? Space wolves (fluff wise now) have the potential of the 13th company turning up to help, while dark angels have the diminutive watchers in the dark, blood angels are vampires and have the death company, while black templars would probably burn them as witches or warp spawn etc. In a game of apocolypse, it would be great to see them. However, if you want them because they look cool, then why not field them as power armoured wolfguard? and just 'call' them legion of the damned? And Night Runner, your right, people gotta cut folks a little more slack! This isn't a school, college or work place, mistakes are loved and adored, every little lone of them.

King Tiger Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 nope, but just ask your opponent if you can use them, if there not overly rigid you should be fine, problem being though is most 40k players are unfortunately.

Lord Ragnarok Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 If you like the models do a count as with some of the SW rules. WG, WG termies and stick them on termie bases...just some quick thoughts.

Lord Rao Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Off Topic: I would instantly agree to any SW player proposing to use LotD, as practically all SW Elite choices are better, IMHO.

Max_Dammit Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 we got so many toys and options, why would you want to use them, I wont be using anything out of the SM dex, Its a shame i cant use the ironclad, but only be course i love dreads in general for there look Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/189716-legion-of-the-damned/#findComment-2247497 Share on other sites More sharing options...

antique_nova Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 why don't you use the models then and wolf them up? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/189716-legion-of-the-damned/#findComment-2247651 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfeslad Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Personally i wouln't mind anyone using them against me, Wolves rule and would crush them grrrrrrr :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/189716-legion-of-the-damned/#findComment-2247666 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLastHuzzah Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 why don't you use the models then and wolf them up? I wouldn't want to Wolf the LotD up. Wolves look freaking awesome and the whole fire, doom & purgation theme is as cool if not cooler than fangs, pelts & beards. If I were to combine the pure awesome that is the SW & LotD together on the same models, it may cause an explosion that destroys the entirety of the 41st millenium. -Huzzah Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/189716-legion-of-the-damned/#findComment-2247861 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wispy Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 You can't take them in regular games. Space Wolves are the heroic intervention, they have no need for deep striking saviors!

Death Wolf Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Space wolves (fluff wise now) have the potential of the 13th company turning up to help, Okay now that would be cool, SM Player: "Haha my Legion of the Damned will destroy you... uhh what are those crazy wolf looking guys that just deep-striked?" SW Player: "Oh these, they are my 13th company, basically imagine Space Wolves and Legion of the Damned fused together and given Mark of the Wulfen." SM Player: "Oh crap....." <_< Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/189716-legion-of-the-damned/#findComment-2248297 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarmyAndy Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 CainTheHunter.......As the person who posted about the Land speeder storm i think people who ask questions deserve a civil answer. We may not have the "in depth knowledge" that you have. Who has the right to judge a question stupid, pointless or dumb????? Any questions are asked because the asker is unsure/unclear about a certain issue. A simple answer is all that was needed! I am a new player, i just hope i dont get that attitude if i have any othe questions Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/189716-legion-of-the-damned/#findComment-2248532 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought we were all "friendly" towards one another (like it should be) The vast majority here are all very friendly and more than willing to answer your questions, so don't mind King Tiger, deep down he is really a nice, furry and playful kitten trying to act tough. There is no Space Wolf forum better than our Fang. Trust me on that. :blink: Edit: And welcome to the Fang BarmyAndy, have an ale on me. #passes him CainTheHunter's pitcher# Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/189716-legion-of-the-damned/#findComment-2248659 Share on other sites More sharing options...
space wolf Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Yes welcome! As one of the oldest wolves here, don't pay any attention to the growling of a few young pups, that's how we do it around here. It puts more hair on your chest! But in all seriousness, we get a little rowdy every once in a while, but trust me, you will find your time spent here very rewarding. And by all means, ask those questions :cuss Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/189716-legion-of-the-damned/#findComment-2248693 Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiros14 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 you could use those delicious models but use a C:SW unit rules instead of the smurfs ones.
