Miktain Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Hello guys, I'm new to 40k 5th edition, and I just started building a new Space Wolves army. Was wondering if this Rune Priest was "legal". I'm going to paint the Sword with Runes and such, to be his runic weapon. Eventually I might buy the Njal Stormcaller figure to be my Rune Priest, but am trying to save money for now. http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f232/Mictain138/runepriest.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/246994-representing-rune-priest/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
hendrik Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 he's fine! the main advantage to our rune priest is they don't really have anything that marks them our as a runepriest on their armour (atleast not from a rule-point; we don't get psychic hoods) however most of our models seem to have one (both the old metal runepriest model as njal) the following conversion, made from a blank shoulderpad is quite popular: the pyschic hood will also make it easy not to mistake him with a wolflord Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/246994-representing-rune-priest/#findComment-2990121 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myxx Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I do much the same thing, partly to save money and partly so my models are 'my' models and have some uniqueness. As long as your mini is recognizable, and you identify it to your opponent, its perfectly legal.
