Valerian Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 CC tank busting, there used to take backline tanks and base sitting heavys Sorry, should have specified, but I was asking Wulfebane, Max (since he was the one with the Missile Launcher and Sniper Scout pack posted). V College has kept me busy lately.. I had started a tank-busting melta/cc pack of scouts but haven't finished building them yet. Just was curious. It seems most folks go with the close-combat Scouts first, so I was intrigued that you seemed to have the less-common long-ranged version only. I've got two large packs (8 in each) of close combat Scouts and I love 'em; they're my favorite unit in the codex. So Space Wolves get their PA from the off like GK? Er, what?

Bloodmange Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 So Space Wolves get their PA from the off like GK? Er, what? *laughs* He was confirming that Space Wolves get their Power Armor upon finishing their test just like the Grey Knights do. Gotta slow things down for our long fanged brothers Brit. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/240798-are-sw-scouts-the-same-as-the-normal-ones/page/2/#findComment-2908976 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got two large packs (8 in each) of close combat Scouts and I love 'em; they're my favorite unit in the codex. When I returned from my 8yr hiatus, I missed my scouts from 2nd edition, being able to spam smoke grenades every turn and sniping what LoS was left. These guys are out of nostalgia of that era. I never wrote up an army without my smoke-spamming scout snipers.

postal105 Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Hey Guys, Are the ''space wolves scouts'' the same as the normal SM scouts except for different heads? Iv'e got some SM scouts lying round and i could grab some heads of ebay if they are the same accept for the heads? Thanks the fast awnser is no the more in depth answer is you can equip them like normal space marine scouts but there not a troop choice there and elite choice that can pop up on your opponents table edge and toast some armor.

Marshal Wilhelm Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 So Space Wolves get their PA from the off like GK? Er, what? From the off is like saying, from the start, or, from the get-go. It is a British turn of phrase. Blood Claws get their Power armour straight away, even though they are greenhorns like Scouts and Templar Neophytes. Both of these are stuck with carapace armour (or equivalent). I guess as GK don't seem to have a newbs unit, LostBritain was making a connection between the SW and GK giving out Power armour more freely.

It is a British turn of phrase. Yeah, that threw me. I hadn't even heard it from the British exchange officers that I've worked with in the past. Blood Claws get their Power armour straight away, even though they are greenhorns like Scouts and Templar Neophytes. Both of these are stuck with carapace armour (or equivalent). I guess as GK don't seem to have a newbs unit, LostBritain was making a connection between the SW and GK giving out Power armour more freely. Yep, got it, and correct. GK don't have a newbs unit; they don't get to go out and play ball against the Daemons until they are fully ready.
