Charlo Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Warlord Trait 2 - chosen by a Force Commander in a Cults/ Militia army dies the following: One squad of the owning player's choice with the Infantry type counts all of their ranged weapons as having an AP of I better than normal for their type (AP 6 becoming AP 5, etc). Now... This doesn't specify anything in particular... So could you chose an allied squad? I weep at AP3 Volkite Culverins. AP3 Grave Warden Toxin rounds. AP2 Siege Tyrants/ Missile Havocs O.O AP1 Darkfire cannons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronDrake28 Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Hmm, well if that's word for word... i'd say yes. It's anything you own on the table haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted June 8, 2016 Author Share Posted June 8, 2016 Does anyone have the new Cults/ Militia book? My quote is from tempest but it would be good to know if it has stayed the same... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slips Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 While potentially very powerful, it does mean that Militia will be your Primary Detachment with the FC as the Warlord so it limits it a bit. Still, potentially hilarious combos. Volkites are ap5, however, so would only ever be Ap4. It does mean you can get Ap3 Autocannon Squad or, for Blood Angels, Ap3 Assault Cannons. ...or Ap2 Krak Missile Squads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted June 8, 2016 Author Share Posted June 8, 2016 Ah - could've sworn the Culverins were at least ap4, my bad! The Mechanicum seem like they could have some REAL fun with this... AP2 Plasma Fusils AP3 Grav Guns AP3 Scyllax Bolters Plus I'm going to be using militia as my Primary I think for Squats, only time I won't be is if I do dark compliance to bring DG terminators. Iron Warriros also quite funny - AP3 Iron Circle guns and all the AP2/3 heavy weapon goodness of Havocs/ Tyrants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flint13 Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Iron Circle are actually monstrous creatures, but otherwise those combos would fly. I've tried the AP2 plasma fusils on Secutors before. Much like plasmagun support squads, they tend to get off one good round of shooting, then are focus fired into the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted June 8, 2016 Author Share Posted June 8, 2016 Iron Circle are actually monstrous creatures, but otherwise those combos would fly. Of course. I'm getting ahead of myself with excitement. Still - ap2 Siege Tyrants. My god. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeternus Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 10 man squad of ap3 heavy bolters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaolin_Monkey Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 10 man support squad with graviton guns.... Just because AP3 blasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknown Legionnaire Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Yes, the warlord trait can be applied to a unit from an allied detachment, but only when they're 'Sworn Brothers'. Those would be UM, SoH, WB, Salamanders and AL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronDrake28 Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Mmm... infiltrating AP1 plasma support squad sounds good to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Bad Squig Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Yes, the warlord trait can be applied to a unit from an allied detachment, but only when they're 'Sworn Brothers'. Those would be UM, SoH, WB, Salamanders and AL. Or mechanicum with the right provenance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknown Legionnaire Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 True. Works with 'Cyber Augmetics' ... that's why I use that Provenance, heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those would be UM, SoH, WB, Salamanders and AL. I thought that might be the case.... Fulmentarus Terms it is then perhaps...? I'll be using Abhuman/ Dark Age so no way I can get the Mechanicum buff :'( Can't afford to give up the power armour / advanced weapons for my fluff and image...
