Forté Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Yes he can but you'll lose pretty much all of their abilities so a major waste. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230485-quick-question-on-wolf-priests/#findComment-2769071 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimtooth Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Yes he can but you'll lose pretty much all of their abilities so a major waste. Can help avoid some of what is lost by giving the wolf priest Saga of the Hunter.

elithren Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 That will ultimately be up to the person he is playing with or his local store as the OBEL and wolf priest questions has not been clarified. RAI it is in favor, but at the same time against due to the IC rules and squad rules. No need to start a fight here, guys. Take a keg and go enjoy some elk.

RAI it is in favor, but at the same time against due to the IC rules and squad rules. No need to start a fight here, guys. Take a keg and go enjoy some elk. The rules regarding it are quite clear on the matter. It isn't RAI, it is RAW that it allowed.

Stormbrow II Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 It isn't RAI, it is RAW that is allowed. OBEL is a type of Outflank. When you Outflank with Scouts you can choose to go normal (why would you?) or OBEL'ing. The IC with Hunter Saga is able to outflank. He's also able to join the unit of Scouts. Hence, the lot of them can Outflank - the unit can choose to go regular or OBEL.

Light Warden Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 So assuming my local community is good with a 110pts WP with SotH, it could work. Also, no fighting please, if it is plausable is it worth that type of unit. If so why or why not? And I do see where Stormbrow is coming from as the codex says "If a Wolf Scout unit makes use of its ability to outflank...."

And I do see where Stormbrow is coming from as the codex says "If a Wolf Scout unit makes use of its ability to outflank...." Why would it not be? What is the purpose of your scouts? Are they tank busting? Using them to dig someone out of a whole? Preferred Enemy can help? And a 4++ and power weapon cant hurt in a pinch. Why would Hunter exist if not to let an IC join our wolf scouts to wreak havoc on the enemy rearward lines? Just my two cents. A penny for my thoughts and another for the tip jar in the Great Hall.

When you choose to Outflank with your Wolf Scouts, the unit uses the BEL system/chart.

Light Warden Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 How do you guys feel this would work? Wolf scouts for all comers as they can do both anti-tank and anti-infantry fairly well. HQ: Rune Priest + chooser (psychic powers: MH and TW)= 110 (with gh 1) Wolf Priest + SOTH = 110 (with scouts) 110 (with GH 1) Elites: Wolf Guard +FB + melta bombs= 43 (with scouts) Wolf Guard +PF + combi-melta= 43 (with GH 1) Wolf Guard +MOTW + melta bombs= 38 (with GH 2) Wolf Scouts(7) + MOTW +Meltagun = 130 Troops: Grey Hunter(8) + MOTW + Standard + Meltagun + Rhino= 185 Grey Hunter(9) + MOTW + Standard + Rhino= 195 Grey Hunter(10) + Plasmagun + Plasmagun + Rhino= 195 Fast Attack: Land Speeder Tornado + heavy flamer + multi melta= 70 Land speeder Tornado + HF + MM= 70 Heavy: Long Fangs(5) + 4xML + Razorback + THB= 155 Long Fangs(5) + 4xML + Razorback + THB= 155 Points: 1499 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230485-quick-question-on-wolf-priests/#findComment-2771816 Share on other sites More sharing options...
