Rune Priest Ridcully Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 No one seems to take Ulric, I like his fluff and model, but have never used him before (the only SC I have ever used was Vulkan when I toyed with Salamanders as a side project to my wolves and Knights, would have prefered them to bring Xavier back) and so am wondering how he could be used. An idea was take him in bigger games, boost either a dread or rune priest's WS, and maybe put him in a squad of wolf guard and use them to counter enemy monsters, tough units, or if in a droppod general havok in the middle of the enemy lines. does anyone have any idea of how to use the high wolf priest despite the bad opinion on him?

wolfpack Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I use him with a squad of 10GH in an LRR or 15BC in an LRC pretty much as a hold and defend unit...take an objective if they must but otherwise intercept enemy units trying to hit my flank or back line...

Wysten Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Problem is with him is that he's not really a wolf priest, he does not grant the same abilitys as one hence he's probably better throught out as a more supportive Wolf Brother. Plus he's not that well suited for fighting gaint creatures. Though a extra weapon skill for a Rune Priest is amusing throught.

Evilbob Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 One of the chaos players in our group is very much into fluff and loves Nurgle. So needless to say, his CSM army is lots of plague marines and his demon army is all Plague Bearers. Ulric with just about anything CC oriented is pretty mean. But that's just in my group.

Ulric model I'd use as a standard wolf priest thanx in part that GW is no longer supplying or making the common wolf priest model. They even stopped making long fangs, terminators with cyclone launchers to.. Oie! At least I have my wolf priest ehhehe ^-^ As for him being an IC I consider him more of a support IC he has place and use again a bit situational at best.
