TiguriusX Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Lone wolf is going to be fun stratagem for a TDAWG survivor of a pack Deed benefits were not shown so we dont know what they unlock yet for warlords The psychic powers look awesome and njal is probably going to get more action a 3cp -1 to hit bubble is nice too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greysquigg Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 That's it. I'm hyped. I don't even care if russ ever turns up now. All of that is super fluffy and excellent and makes me happy. For Russ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Triszin Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 not a lot was shown, but frust fury looks like a terrifying relic. 24", assault 4, any wounds roll a D6 on a 4+ mortal wounds? so thats just +1mortal wound for the shooting phase, or for each wound? happy to see saga of the bear is back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.Redbeard Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 The Sagas... oh Allfather. Warlord traits expanding into auras... that will be cool. And for Captain Smash... I think we are there almost. +1 to hit and +1 to wound Vehicles... that ia brutal. But the feeling that they are pushing a mono army is hard.

Karhedron Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Deed benefits were not shown so we dont know what they unlock yet for warlords The impression I get is that the rule for the saga goes from just effecting the Warlord to affecting all models within the aura (no clue how big that will be but 6" seems the norm). Take Saga of the Bear for example. Once the WL passes his first save, his 6+++ goes from affecting just him to being a bubble ability. Tasty!

M.Redbeard Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 My rune priest in bike will have a lot of work with that new stratagem and Storm Caller. "Yeah I get cover and a -1 to hit bubble around him while I come to you with my invulnerable saves, come at me" And if the Pack Leader can take the new TDA a Tartaros with 6" and the Lone Wolf Stratagem will be nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says that but it doesn't detail whether that deed creates a separate aura ability or turns the trait into an aura ability. It also doesn't give the range of the aura, though presumably it's 6".

Runefyre Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 lol that they showed us a strategem that we already have access to with chapter approved... Love the primaris artwork depicted with all their helmets on. Also if frostfury is anything to go by helfrost got buffed to more reliably inflict mortal wounds which is nice.

I am super pumped and excited! Looks really fluffy and fun! The wording I'd say implies that the Warlord trait becomes an aura ability. And the range it is safe to say it will be 6". Another interesting thing about wording that I think that may be great. The Saga of the Bear seems to imply that the Saga could be chosen for Bjorn, at ehich point it'd ask, can oir named characters take the Saga of their choosing? Because Beastslayer and Bjorn would be such a brutal combo against Knight amd mechanized armies I would cry "hey you see my 6 Dreads with invuln and S10 weapons? Yeah Bjorn gives them rerolls of 1 and adds 1 to their wound rolls after killing your little Arminger. Have a fun game fighting Dreads that hit on 2+ and wound on a 2+" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiguriusX Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 or you make a melee saving throw against chaff to activate it then go hunting big game this is what AM do with those electro dudes who get a 3++ if they kill someone in melee jump packs or bikes are going to be very popular again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Triszin Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 hmm, on the terminator armors. Will a wolf guard squad be able to mix and match the armor sets? 5 wolf guard x1 tartarous x2 catapractii x2 standard tda ------ "indepth" article is brief. I eagerly await the stream and tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shocker3800 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 What I’m currently seeing is a slow combat focused army, will have to wait to see the codex before passing judgment. I’m hoping for some speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Priest Jbickb Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 That line wolf stratagem may be one of the most fluffy stratagems ever released by GW. And I love it. All in all it looks like we should be in decent shape once the book is in hand. One thing I'm excited for more than anything is units in a logical order in the codex and not having to flip to the space marine section when I can't remember shared unit rules. That index was horribly organized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m hoping for some speed. Well we have Cunning of the wolf which is an awesome one. I could see maybe one more delivery based one or something for Saga of the Hunter possibly. I think we shouldnt be as fast as Blood angels though. I rather like the up close yet midrangy idea, where were live in rapid fire range and dare people to charge us.

Yoyo ninja Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 One little gripe. Long fangs seem to have potentially been nerfed. You have to spend a CP to get re-rolls to hit or wound. This could mean they lost their built in re-rolls to hit, but got access to better re-rolls for a CP. everything else is looking amazing so far though. I'm loving living lightening. And the traits look great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m hoping for some speed. Well, we aren't death guard slow. If TWC are brought back up to 12" movement then we're good to go in my opinion. Even without that we'll be OK honestly. The outflank strat, stormwolf troop carriers, rhinos/landraiders, the -2 to hit us as we march up if we foot slog. I think we'll be OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the traits look great. I think you are misreading that The statagem lets them reroll ALL misses instead of just 1s (which is dumb with BS 3 but whatever) OR reroll all wounds (this is what you should use 100% of the time) I don't think this means they removed the innate reroll of 1's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
