Zedrenael Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Something that I would like to play around with is a T6 brother Corbulo by making him join Mephiston. That means to wound you need some pretty high powered weapons and now have a 2+ FnP covering mephiston throught the mid field that is if you want to slow him down without using wings. This would also make me reconsider his role and taking Biomancy powers since the main power for getting him in faster was his wings. What do you guys think? For 355 points is it worth this duo covering each other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriel1303 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Mephy cant join other units im afraid but you could keep them close together so mephy stays in the bubble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zedrenael Posted September 29, 2012 Author Share Posted September 29, 2012 He is a unit and ICs can join him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodReavers Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 ICs can't join single model units, unless that was removed for 6th edition. Edit: Yep, still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zedrenael Posted September 29, 2012 Author Share Posted September 29, 2012 It was my understanding that you can not join Monstrous Creatures or Vehicles. I did not see a restriction to the single model units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killax Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Well Memphy is good enough on it's own. It's a fun idea but does not add to much to the overall power imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not see a restriction to the single model units. You are misunderstanding. See BRB Pg.39 for the restriction on ICs joining units consisting of a single model(ie. Mephiston).

DominicJ Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 can he join a bike squad for T5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deschenus Maximus Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 can he join a bike squad for T5? Yes but I don't think that will give him ID protection against S8 weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not see a restriction to the single model units. You are misunderstanding. See BRB Pg.39 for the restriction on ICs joining units consisting of a single model(ie. Mephiston). Look into this and I am wrong which is highly disappointing. Thinking back to my old 5th ed days I guess. can he join a bike squad for T5? This is a bad idea because bikes get a natural jink save and with focus fire he can be shot out with a plasma cannon/gun/pistol/executioner. Or any AP2/3 weapon. Just need to tag him once with a ID weapon and watch him fail that 2+ LoS roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
