UniWolf Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 So I know FAQ came out recently but is the primaris battle leader meant to have an invul save? All Primaris equivilants have kept the invul save except the battle leader Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350812-primaris-battle-leader/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadir Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Battle leaders doesn't have Inv. Only lords have a 4++ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350812-primaris-battle-leader/#findComment-5179317 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoyo ninja Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Off topic, but how are people using primaris battle leaders? they are a pain in the butt to get anywhere.

CaptainStabby Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 I made one, just cause I wanted to cobble one together, but I cant see ever running him. The regular Lt does the same job and is much more tactically flexible in every way possible.

Yoyo ninja Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Yea, I was thinking the same thing. I picked up the wolves from tooth and claw, so I have painted up the model, but not sure I will use him.

Cpt.Danjou Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 In an ordinary SW force I see no reason to take the Primaris battle leader, the WGBL does the same thing but with one less wound. I usually just park the WGBL, if I ever use one, behind or close to Long fangs for re-rolling wounds and he feels more durable than the Primaris variant: The problem I have with both kinds are that they take up one HQ slot in a battalion detachement, I rather take some kind of priest for that slot. I could see a primaris battle leader in a pure primaris list or in a narrative game otherwise they are just another shelf filler, as they are kind cool looking minis, just like other things I don't see any point of taking other than slot fillers, because of the cost efficiency is to low.  Cpt.D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350812-primaris-battle-leader/#findComment-5179997 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skylarkr6 Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 The best use I have found for the Primaris battle leader is he makes an excellent model to convert into a wolf Lord (yes I know it is the wrong armor but it looks cool. I'd post a WIP pic here if I knew how) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350812-primaris-battle-leader/#findComment-5180024 Share on other sites More sharing options...
UniWolf Posted October 27, 2018 Author Share Posted October 27, 2018 Sorry my mistake, I didn’t read the datasheet properly and because I always take a storm shield my brain jumbled up the invul safe and thought it was inbuilt into the normal battle leader Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350812-primaris-battle-leader/#findComment-5180025 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorin Helm-splitter Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 The main reason to use the primaris wolf guard battle leader is because of the scale and as part of primaris force. It's not a very effective build and for that matter none of the Primaris characters are.
