Dregan the Iron Wolf Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Ok, so maybe I'm having an Ork moment, but for the life of me, I can't find the bit in the small rulebook where it says you can't assault if you've come on from reserve this turn. Would someone be kind enough to throw me a page number? Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapter Master Ignis Domus Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 You can assault if you come on from reserve. It's only if you Deep Strike that you can't assault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dregan the Iron Wolf Posted February 27, 2011 Author Share Posted February 27, 2011 You can assault if you come on from reserve. It's only if you Deep Strike that you can't assault. So even if you Outflank you can assault the turn you come on? If so, that's excellent news for my Wolf Scouts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapter Master Ignis Domus Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Yes. And yes it is. Vehicles are almost assuredly dead if you give them a meltagun and some bombs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant, I was happy with it being a cheap throw away 85 point unit with a melta gun (and a 23 points Wolf Guard with a combi-melta), but think I'll now spend that pesky 5 points I had left over on a meltabomb for the WG.

greatcrusade08 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 my LSS have a 21-26" assault range (the scouts do anyway) from outflank, my scout bikes 18".. no-one is safe :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pwrserge Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Genestealers are the masters of this tactic. It's enough to make most players give up the outer 18" of each board edge... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Father Rik Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 my LSS have a 21-26" assault range (the scouts do anyway) from outflank, my scout bikes 18".. no-one is safe :P Uhm... no they don't. Your maximum assault range for the scouts is 20". Rulebook, page 70: "Passengers may not embark onto or disembark from a fast vehicle if it has moved (or is going to move) flat out in that Movement phase." So the maximum the LSS can move is 12" on, then 2" deployment, then 6" charge move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapter Master Ignis Domus Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I'm guessing he's using Shrike. That may be why he states '21"-26"' assault range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nurglez Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 He's not the messiah he's a very naughty boy! It is also worth remembering that if you choose to outflank in a transport vehicle, you have to come on riding it, and thus would not be able to assault unless it was open topped or an assault vehicle, but you could choose to outflank out of it...

greatcrusade08 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 He's not the messiah he's a very naughty boy! monty pythons life of brian.. great quote.. its why i like Land speeder storms, if you get first turn start on the board, if not outflank.. that way it gets use before it gets shot down, which negates one of its worst features (being made of paper) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
