Token Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Does the IG rule of telepathic relay work for SW wolf scouts? If the main army are wolves and the allied are imps?

CainTheHunter Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 You mean the Astropath being a part of CCS? My guess is that is should work, since the wording is about friendly units IIRC (I don't have my copy of IG Codex at hands currently). Astropath will help with reserve roll for your army, while Master of the Fleet will screw the enemy reserves. They both actually are viable choices for allied HQ in Chimera with 4 vets with flamers. One of my plans for allies (CCS, melta/plasma vets and Vendetta). The plan B includes Eldrad with Pathfinders, but while totally fluffy, is has some Xeno scent and unlike with the IG, I'd have to buy and paint the models.

Token Posted July 5, 2012 Author Share Posted July 5, 2012 Thanks, didnt find anyting of it in the errata thingy. Orders should only work for imps though? Is chimera the way to go if you want them to live? Even if you put them back behind their big brother wolves?

Spacefrisian Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 The "friendly" thing shouldnt be use, look at page 112/113 of te rulebook to check if they can use their allies specials..

CainTheHunter Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 The "friendly" thing shouldnt be use, look at page 112/113 of te rulebook to check if they can use their allies specials.. SW and IG are battle brothers as per ally matrix on p 113. Rules regarding battle brothers on p 112 say that they are treated as "friendly units" for purpose of targeting the abilities etc. So they are battle brothers AND friendly. The orders are now covered in the IG FAQ which says that they may be issued to units from Codex:IG only (otherwise the previous wording would have allowed issuing orders to SW units ;) ) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/255650-ig-telepathic-relay-with-sw-wolf-scouts/#findComment-3110423 Share on other sites More sharing options...
