Tzimisce169 Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Hi guys, I've got a question regarding the Saga of the Hunter. (MODS: Apologies is this is meant to go in the rules queries section. Could you move it please?) Here are the rules as I understand them. I can give my Wolf Priest/ WG leader the Saga of the Hunter. This allows him to Infiltrate and gives the Stealth ability. Acute senses gives the ability to re-roll outflank dice. The whole SW army has this. Infiltrate, according to the RB, also gives the ability to Outflank. The rules of Infiltrate state that "if 1 model in the squad has this ability then the whole squad benefits from it" Or words to those effect. HERE IS THE ISSUE: On the opposite page, under the IC section, 1 paragraph states that the character counts as part of the unit he attached to for all intents and regards to the rules. This coupled with the above statements mean that I can attach a Wolf priest with Saga of the Hunter to a Grey Hunter squad and then outflank with them, re-rolling the dice if I want to. This is awesome! HOWEVER..... In the same IC section there is a paragraph that states that an IC does not confer rules onto units and vice-versa. Meaning that the Wolf priest can not infiltrate/outflank with the GH squad as the squad does not have the Infiltrate/Outflank ability. This means that the WP/WGL with the SotH can either join a unit of wolf scouts or go solo. Thus negating the whole "hunting by sent" aspect of the Space Wolves. If a LF squad can never infiltrate/outflank, why do they have Acute Senses? I don't know what to think on this so I'm putting it out to my fellow Wolf Lords. Please discuss.

dswanick Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Search is your friend. :) http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...=255539&hl= And there are other threads. To sum up : -Most people that I've talked with agree that SotH on a Wolf Priest/Battle Leader works just fine to Outflank any unit they are attached to. Some disagree.

Schertenleib Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Also SotH grants Outflank, not Infiltrate. So you can outflank with the unit but not infiltrate with it.
