Grimtooth Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 So I am brainstorming about 40k at work right now so if I get something wrong, I apologize as I do not have my rulebook with me. Thunderlord Fenrisian Wolves x14 Cyberwolf x1 Now, the turn of assaulting, have the cyberwolf issue a challenge to lock up an enemy character that turn of combat to allow the thunderlord to freely wrecj havoc against the basic troops. A cyberwolf is considered an upgrade character to the unit of Fenrisian Wolves correct? Can he issue challenges?

Schertenleib Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Good question. It is an upgraded member of the unit just like a sgt, but the BRB just lists the Cyberwolf as a beast. I would think that the Cyberwolves that run with the Iron Priest are not characters but the one in a wolf pack would be. Therefore being able to issue a challenge.

Wolfsbane Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Cyberwolves are listed as "Be", they are just beasts with awesome stats. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/257279-thunderlord-wfenrisian-wolves/#findComment-3130991 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chalx the grey Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I don't think they can issue challenges... they are not characters under any circumstances. Just like the GH with a PW cannot, the cyberwolf is just an upgrade to a normal wolf.

Jonny Wolf Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Gotta agree with Brother Chalx. I really think we're Rules Lawyering here on this one. I mean, it's a cyber wolf. How's the challenge going to go? Cyber wolf: "Bark...bark, bark, howl, bark, snarl!!" Chaos Sergeant: "Um...what? Is he saying something?" Cyber wolf: "Bark, snarl, snarl, bark!" Chaos Sergeant: "Um...ok, lets just start shooting or something..."

Chucku Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I'm working on a list that has a Wolf Lord running with 15 Fenrisian Wolves and a Wolf Guard Pack Leader with Oath of the Hunter so they can Outflank. Both are set up with PF and SS and the WGPL is well able to respond to most challenges, especially from tac squad sergeants and the like. Edit - just remembered you can't put Saga of the Hunter on a cav figure! Damn... :> Still, the fifteen Fenrisian Wolves make a heck of a meat shield with LOS! rolls for the lord.

You can attach him to the squad and outflank, then just have him run off by himself and let the cavalry and beasts run into the enemy from the flanks.

Godhead Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 What about canis and a th/ss lord attached to a pack of 15 wolves. Now you can challenge or accept with canis or hammer lord depending on what is needed.

Canis Majoris Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 CyberWolf "Bark, woof, bark, bark, grrrrrrr!"
