Riot Earp Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Hi everybody i wonder if the point cost in battle scribe is correct for Hector Rex. In the index (Forgeworld Imperium) states cost states a lower cost number than in battlescribe. I asked me if they have added the storm shield point cost? I thought named charakters have a fixed point cost. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finkmilkana Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 As per the index, the characters do not include wargear, so you indeed have to add it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkeo Nox Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Special characters points costs always include wargears costs... They are in a different section at the end of each index/codex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finkmilkana Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 In most books yes, but the FW index (Page 72, at the top) specifically says wargear is not included! I think some of the FW characters might have options, so including gear would not work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aegir_Einarsson Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 As i can see there is point cost for aegis sword 0 points, but i can't find pont cost for SS for him So i use point cost from space marines codex 25points If I'm correct. Maby I'm wrong And you have better ideas how to include coat of SS for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feral_80 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Never take pts cost from another codex, it makes no sense. If Hector's shield is not listed in the point cost section, that is a typo. Check the faq/errata, but 90% its cost is 0 pts as well. Hector sadly sucks already, no need to further increase his cost by 25 pts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aegir_Einarsson Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Why you say So. I thought that he is some nice anti psyker character. I play Black templaara And some anti psyker stuff is need And welcome. I thought that 2+/3++ is nice. Why you say he's sucks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feral_80 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 He seems to me both expensive and quite squishy, regardless of his save. And against anything other than daemons he won't do much in close combat (and not even against daemons, after all...). If you want an Inquisitor to help with psychic defence, I'd go Greyfax: she is cheaper, and while she only gets 2 dispels per turn, she always has that important +1 on those, even at 24". Plus, her Ld is better than Rex's and she will give you Ld 10 troops all around her. She has pesky perks against psykers as well, not really that dangerous but still a nice little bonus.

Arkeo Nox Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 I think he is really good. With a resilience unmatch in the Inquisition and a good deny capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aegir_Einarsson Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 If we don't take SS costs he is 20 points above greyfax And has S4 3++ 2+ . He Also have 3 deny atempts. Also deep strike option is Nice. He don't need to be better he is different. And has his + And - . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostbit3 Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 there are too many examples of other characters in the same index having to pay points for wargear to make me think his is intended to be free. As much as I want his to be free, I wouldn’t feel right not paying the points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aegir_Einarsson Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 The sword is there And it's free but SS isn't And that is confusion... Btw. I don't want to start another topic And maby there was one And i can't find it. I want to make small detachment with hector rex as hq And 3 assasins. Which one i should take?
