Ghent Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Does anyone have any experience of running a Rune Priest on a bike? Was thinking about trying one out in the next couple of games instead of the standard hang out with Long Fangs or ride in a Rhino.

Grey Mage Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I have routinely used one to good effect, along with a pack of bloodclaw bikers, in my DP lists. The ability to get his nullification abilities accross the field quickly is outright invaluable against some armies, and giving him Tempests Wrath allows him to simultaneously be fast and shut down the enemies mobility. It can also be nice to give him Murderous Hurricane for Drive-byes or living lightning for a bit more umph. The Extra toughness really helps him in the assault, and its worth every penny in my opinion. Its not enough to make him a front line character, but when your assaulting enemy mooks like tacticals and dire avengers it really shines.

Ghent Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 Was planning on trying him in a Rhino rush 1,000 pt. army. Have him roll around with MH/LL behind the Rhinos Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/244659-rune-priest-on-a-bike/#findComment-2958086 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Mage Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Might be best to use Stormcaller then, for your rhinos sake. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/244659-rune-priest-on-a-bike/#findComment-2958093 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bongfu Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 I regularly run one with a pack of Swiftclaws. Murderous Hurricane is beast on the charge, 3d6 attacks before your charge stacked with bolters and a heavy bolter from the swiftclaws make even a maxed out mob of boyz crumbled.
