Commander Krag Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Dont know if there is already a topic on this but which do you prefer? My TWL is followed by 2 fenris wolves so does that make a difference to which I should choose?

Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 What weapons is he equipped with, this would tells us a lot more so we may help you further. Over in Toasterfrees' "TWC in 6th" thread there are a lot of helpful posts as to equipping your lord and his TWC retinue.

Blacksad Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 think what's more important is the unit he's in. if chances are high he'll still be in combat round 2, go for Saga of the Warrior born. if he's ,in a pack that is unlikely to leave a lot of enemies standing after 1 combatphase, he's better of with Bear, since the extra attacks from Warrior Born will be wasted, ergo 35 pts down the drain.

Wolf Lord Conan Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 My wolf lord usually goes into combat and takes a bunch of enemies down so I go with warrior born but if you have a more ranged or want a more survivor wolf lord then saga of the bear is probably the best choice Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/258072-saga-of-the-bear-or-warriorborn/#findComment-3140015 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fjgarces Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 I would rather Bear if WL takes some I1 weapon and strikes last or if he rides alone. If he's in a unit of TWC, then using LoS! you don't need so much Bear, so go for WBS.

Blacksad Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 don't forget those extra attacks dissapear at the end of the next combatphase, to be replaced by the new amount of unsaved wounds he caused, so if he's not in combat for an assaultphase, he loses the attacks. Saga of the Warrior Born seems cool and powerfull, but ultimatly, it's extremely conditional. if you play a crossover from 40k and fantasy, and have him charge into a unit of zombies, sure, WB owns. in most other cases, it's just 35 points wasted Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/258072-saga-of-the-bear-or-warriorborn/#findComment-3140063 Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyeslikethunder Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 SOWB suffers in 6th because of challenges as people can just challenge you and soak up the hits on 1 wound model. stopping you scoring many wounds .So its hard to keep the run going Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/258072-saga-of-the-bear-or-warriorborn/#findComment-3140215 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Plus Saga of the Bear keeps a high point model from getting squashed from a single Str 10 hit. Then if his pack makes the impact, ie kills, the unit they assault he is likely to get shot to :o by a lot of low AP weapons. I prefer Bear in almost all situations.
