wounds on long fangs

[Simo429]

My long fangs tactics arent good

 

if you have 6 and you take a wound would you take it on one of the special weapon long fangs or do you take it on the squad leader?

[jester262]

personally, I'd rather take it on the squad leader than lose a heavy weapon

[Brother Caleb]

It depends. If you have found yourself splitting your fire regularly to that point, then take the heavy weapon. However, if you've been focus firing the whole game and have no reason to spit your shots, take your pack leader.

You buy a naked wolf guard to attach to the unit and pluck him first. :)

I agree with what the 2 previous Wolves said.

[GeoWolf]

if you have the points, a wolf guard in TDA with a CML works well in the group, as well as being able to take on most wounds

[captain fabian]

Yes but it isnt too clever to make him take armor saves because you lose 2 shots if he dies instead of 1 from the normal guys.

[GeoWolf]

good point

Personally I would usually pick off the squad leader first then move from cheapest heavy weapon to most expensive untill the unit is wiped out. If however they must all take a wound and roll for saves then whatever is left after that will still take any further wounds from cheapest model first to most expensive. Dunno if its the best approach but it's what I've taken to habit.

I usually kill the squad leader as well. Only in extreme circumstances do I really split fire anyway. I usually run 5 ML so I would really rather have the best chance of killing a vehicle, or putting some wounds on a squad, than a lesser chance of taking on two targets.

I feel like the loss of a heavy weapon out weighs the loss of split fire, unless your doing it a lot
