Hrothgar Beastslayer Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Im toying with the idea of an Iron preist on a bike or thunder wolf accompanied by cyberwolves. But im wondering about him being on a bike and the wolves being beasts, do they limit each others movement and charge ranges? i really dont want to buy another thunderwolf so i might make a custom bike counts as. have any of you used this unit and if so what are your thoughts on it? thanks.

Wispy Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 The old codex FAQ used to say you can move at bike speed with 2 fenrisian wolves, but could not turbo boost. Those days are gone, though. We must refer to the rule book, so strictly, you must move at the speed of the slowest model. 1. So movement... Lowest speed is 6 inches - the cybewolves hold them back. 2. Fleet? No! Iron Priest lacks fleet. Can't fleet. 3. Assault? 6 again, the iron priest. 4. Turbo boosting? Forget it. The cyberwolves can't. The bike is a colossal waste of points if you want the cybewolves.

Chucku Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 I'm in the process of putting together a Thunderwolf-mounted Iron Priest. For 150pts you can have him + 4 cyberwolves - nice!

Hrothgar Beastslayer Posted March 19, 2010 Author Share Posted March 19, 2010 thats what i was afraid of, so im gonna make a Custom bike for the iron priest that counts as thunderwolf, plus that makes him S10! perfect i say. since beasts and cavalry move the same they work in unision correct?

Freman Bloodglaive Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Yes, that would work. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/195391-the-fighting-iron-priest/#findComment-2326093 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taeken Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 I'm working on a TW mounted Iron Priest atm. Going with a more cyborg than not wolf as I figure any wolf that will hang with an IP is going to be very mechanical. Most likely a mangled TW that the IP took off the battle field then replaced / modified what was missing and or broken.

Wispy Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 I hope GW doesn't ever make the beast and cavalry rules different in future editions - we'd be massively effed over.
