Wolf Guard in Planetstrike.

[Skirax]

I'm really sorry if this has already been asked, I haven't seen anything like this though.

 

If in the Codex, it says that WG in TDA cannot Deep Strike, then surely in Planetstrike this rule is ignored?

 

I realise this is a fairly obvious question, but I just wondered.

[Spacefrisian]

They can deepstrike in planetstrike but cannot assault on the turn they land (attacker) as they didn't have the deepstrike rule.

[Skirax]

Ah, that's the part I was obviously confused on, thanks ;)

[Grey Mage]

Yep, all infantry gain the deepstrike rule, but if you have it already you get the bonus of being able to assault.

 

Of course, it doesnt work if your in a DP sadly.

Forgive me if I am wrong but dosent it state that we prefer not to deep strike not that we cant?

well.... first off i would ask where it says we can telport our termies? space wolves distrust things like teleporters and what not. i suppose that under particular circumstances they would, but just because you can lead a wolf to a teleporter doesn't mean you can make him use it (and i would like to see you try)

[stinkenheim]

space wolf terminators cannot teleport into battle becuase unlike C:SM our terminator armour entry does not include the 'Deep Strike' special rule. Instead it includes the note abou Space Wolves having a distrust of technology involved in teleporting.

 

So whilst it is a note, rather than a special saying 'No teleporting' we cannot because there is no rule allowing us to under the armours entry.

 

Its also worth noting that it says we cant teleport, and not deepstrike. we are able to deepstrike if a drop pod has been purchased for the unit.

Or Via Jumppack!

[Wispy]

Does planet strike not make a note that deep striking trasports don't count?

 

 

In any case, that gives sky claws some use!

Keg of ale and a spit roast on the teleporter plate. Then flick the switch when their feasting.

I was just wondering about Terminator Armour, I know about DPs and Jump Packs :D

[Spacefrisian]

The thing about Spacewolves and not teleporting is a bunch of bull**** if you ask me. Ragnar jumps in a teleporter wearing powerarmour and he isn't the only Spacewolf.

[Wispy]

The phrase "You can't have your cake and eat it too" comes to mind here. We got a lot of cool stuff - better stuff - over codex marines. Don't be spoiled about it. :P

you know my only weakness.... NNOOOOO!!!!!

Lukas also uses that trick to give his Wolf Lord a bath.

[Skirax]

So true...:)

How would drop podders not benefit from already having deep strike?

 

they have the pod so have the deep strike rule so why wouldnt they be able to assault?

 

if this is true then im very upset!!!!

To prevent some very nasty surprises, especially dreadnoughts I feel. (unless your opponent has agreed to let you use IA books...)

 

Something about a game turn only being a few seconds of "real time" and the impact of hitting the ground renders you incapable of leaping out as soon as you hit planetside.

 

Of course nothing stopping terminators deep-striking and hoping their heavy flamers/combi-weapons do enough damage to the defenders to allow them to survive until the next turn.

so in the planet strike book (which i do not currently have) does it say that units in drop pods dont get to assault?

If you can figure out how the DP can assault anything then IT can assault out of DS.

 

The unit inside doesnt have the rule, the DP does- AND DPs specificly say you cannot Assault out of them.

 

We done be SOL.
