Sohail187 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 So in the current edition IA V2 the space marine one never remember the full name! we have relic vehicles. As we are all aware you can only take 1 relic vehicle unless you take a master of the forge or what ever they are called. Now in the book it states what units other SM chapters need to take to represent a master of the forge for you to have access to multiple relic vehicles. Now this was written when space wolves had the last codex and it states that we need a rune priest with Beastslayer upgrade from last codex. So as this has not been updated do you think it would be ok just to take a rune priest? Or should we take a rune priest and splash out an additional 15 points to make up for this? Or would you say that we cannot take more than 1 relic till this gets updated?

Vash113 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I believe this question has been brought up before but I don't know if a consensus was reached or an official answer found. In general I'd just ask your opponent if they'd be ok with you just running a Rune Priest.

FenrisWolf Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 No one has said. I sent an email to ForgeWorld more than a week ago but have not received a response other than their automated reply.

captain fabian Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 What are relic vehicles? Are they FW exclusive or do they include super heavies? And as a side note can SM and SW field Baneblades and stuff like that in a normal geme? I have no idea how this works. And sorry i dont mean to change the subject of the topic Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/299080-relic-vehicles/#findComment-3859361 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z00Z Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Forgeworld IA volume 2 2nd ed. contains the war machines of astartes. The relic vehicles are just 'special' vehicles built and survived and remain in the armory. Within this book 'codex', it has 40k approved additional vehicles you can field, apoc only vehicles etc. There's specific rules, points, everything you need to field them. Theres also restrictions etc. for fielding qty of them to stop spammage. Is a baneblade listed? I cant recall offhand and dont have it handy, but there are LR variants, predator variants, rhinos, fellblade SH's, Sicaran and attk craft such as flyers. Make sure your opponent is prepared to let you play with them, even if it is '40k approved' :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/299080-relic-vehicles/#findComment-3859380 Share on other sites More sharing options...
FenrisWolf Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 The Fellblade is in there. I think it's a lord of war. I'll check in a little while. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/299080-relic-vehicles/#findComment-3859678 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donkalleone Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Baneblade is Apokalypse and so from GW. Fellblade Typhon etc is Fw. They are not Relic since being LoW there are automatically limited to 1. At least i think so.

FenrisWolf Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Ok, just looked it up. According to the IA2, 2nd edition, it is a Lord of War choice and is not specifically labeled for Apoc games only. So you are allowed to take one in a normal 40K game. So it the Typhon, the Cerberus, etc. The Thunderhawk too, which would be hilarious. Take a thunder hawk and still have 315 points for an HQ and units to put in it in a 1000 point game. Talk about cheese! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/299080-relic-vehicles/#findComment-3859762 Share on other sites More sharing options...
