The 'Why do you never see ________ being used' thread

[Valerian]

1. Has anyone played around with either a Wolf Priest or WGBL with Saga of the Hunter with some Scouts? Using the BEL ability and having a prefered enemy/fearless unit seems rather amazing. Especially since you can attach a Wolf Guard as well. Just a thought that I really would like to play around with unit my idea is proven horrible.

 

I love my Wolf Scouts, and have played a large pack geared for close combat with WGL and WP attached several times. They haven't dissapointed yet. My setup has been 8 Scouts with a Meltagun, MotW, and 2x Power Weapons. I then add a Wolf Guard with Combi-Melta and Thunder Hammer, then a Wolf Priest with SotH. There isn't much that they can't charge into and make short work of. They get a whole boat load of rerolling misses, armour-ignoring, WS 4 attacks.

 

Edit: Forgot to mention the time that a large BA Assault Squad with attached Sanguinary Priest charged into them looking for easy pickings- sucessful Counterattack and I wiped them out to a man, while only losing a handful of scouts in return.
