WumgarIcefang Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Hail! I just started playing so far Im 2-0 with a 500 point army list inspired by cobtributors to my first post (thank you) I am running Thunderwolf Calvary but I do not understand how many attacks they get on a charge. 4? 6? 7? My apologies I a, very new. WI Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/287537-thunderwolf-calvary-number-of-attacks/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quixus Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 They start with 4 attacks as per their profile. All riders equipped with a bolt/plasma pistol get +1A for the additional CCW the pistol counts as. All riders get an additional +1A on the charge. I have no idea how they could get 7 attacks.

HergerOddhowl Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Should be... 6, if they are not attacking with a weapon classified as a "Specialist Weapon", and 5 if they are.

Torin Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 6 top... 5 with Storm Shield or Power Fist. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/287537-thunderwolf-calvary-number-of-attacks/#findComment-3610283 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vykryl Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Don't they also get 1 for Hammer of Wrath? 4 for profile, +1 for ccw & pistol, +1 for charge for up to 6 on a charge and a Hammer of Wrath attack?

Vash113 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Don't they also get 1 for Hammer of Wrath? 4 for profile, +1 for ccw & pistol, +1 for charge for up to 6 on a charge and a Hammer of Wrath attack? Yes but I wouldn't count that as an attack with the normal close combat attacks of the model as it is a special, unmodified attack at Initiative 10.

Vykryl Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Might be where my fellow new comer is getting confused though. 4-5 base attacks depending on equipment, +1 on charge & a special attack (S user AP - I think) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/287537-thunderwolf-calvary-number-of-attacks/#findComment-3610390 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karack Blackstone Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Here's a quick breakdown of how things work. Profile: 4 Base Attacks +Pistol = +1 Attack OR +SS = No pair of CCW Attack Bonus (CCW Attack Bonus requires two weapons that are considered CCW's: Pistols, melee weapons, no Storm Shields.) AND + Charge = +1 Attack Total: 5 or 6 attacks each model, depending upon loadout and charge or stuck in (No one normally gets the +1 on any turn after charging, that I know of as yet.) I see I must increase my understanding, where is the Hammer of Wrath charge bonus option coming from? I guess I shall need to read up on that portion of the core book most likely again to increase my own edification.
