Ashmantle Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 So GW updated, amongst others, the Space Wolves FAQ. http://www.games-wor...2_JANUARY13.pdf What caught my attention is this bit: Q: Can a Wolf Guard Pack Leader or Independent Character join a squad of Wolf Scouts and benefit from the Outflank special rule because at least one model has the ability? (p27) A: Yes. Q: If so, do they roll to see where they enter play using the Wolf Scouts’ Behind Enemy Lines special rule or the normal Outflank special rule? (p27). A: The normal Outflank special rule. I'm curious, will those of you who fielded their wolf scouts with a attached pack leader continue to do so?

dswanick Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I thought Outflanking Wolf Scouts had seen their time in the sun, and were on the outs in 6th Ed (due to the prohibition on charging) anyway.

postal105 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Being able to come in behind your oponent kill off a bunch of his stuff as people tend to keep the heavy weapions teams and the like in the back line making it an effective way to easely destroy or remove a few of thoseheavy weapions from tshooting at you is still worth it in my book.

Jarl Kjaran Coldheart Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I thought Outflanking Wolf Scouts had seen their time in the sun, and were on the outs in 6th Ed (due to the prohibition on charging) anyway. no, their role just changed. i usually roll mine with 2 plasma pistols and either a melta gun or plasma gun. there isnt many rear guard squads that can take that many ap2/1 shots and stay combat effective.

skeletoro Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 They should have "FAQed" Frost weapons (to make them useful) IMO. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/269754-faq-update/#findComment-3285990 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MalachiOfRuss Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Yeah, I was disappointed with that ruling. I will be dropping the WGPL from my Scouts and spending the points on Plasma Pistols instead.
