Rune Priest Jbickb Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Hey all. It's a minor thing and super obvious but GW just added this to our FAQ: Pages 93, 94 and 114 – Blood Claws, Grey Hunters and Long Fangs, Mixed Unit Change the Mixed Unit ability to read: ‘For the purposes of determining what models a vehicle can transport and for the Bolter Discipline ability, Wolf Guard Terminator Pack Leaders have the Terminator keyword.’ Not a shocker just a clarification to halt any weird rules lawyering that might come up. Thought you all should know. There are also some big rulebook updates to check out.

PeteySödes Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Sucks the nerfed Armor of Russ like that: Q: If a unit is affected by a rule that forces it to fight after all other units able to fight have done so, such as the effects of the Paroxysm psychic power, the Vexator Mask or the Armour of Russ, can it still be affected by the Counter-Offensive Stratagem? A: Yes, the Counter Offensive Stratagem allows a unit to fight outside of the normal fight order (i.e. the Stratagem does not give a unit the ability to fight first in the Fight phase, it simply instructs you to pick a unit and fight with it next). More rich get richer CP crap. I would never have 2 CP simply to get around those effects.

Rune Priest Jbickb Posted May 29, 2019 Author Share Posted May 29, 2019 It doesn't completely invalidate it because you the charger choose what's first and it can't be interrupted until after the first combat so picking that one first will guarantee it works. But it does sting a bit. It does however unify all of the similar effects to a single way of functioning so thats good at least.

PeteySödes Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 That’s how charging works anyways, if you pick incorrectly they’ll punish you, just now you can’t use the armor to insulate it.

TiguriusX Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 I always used the armor of russ as the ultimate defensive tool so I can stop the enemy from rushing in with an elite unit to gank me (like a smash captain picking off Bjorn) etc. This nerf hurts but the relic is still amazing for how I need it to work Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356237-new-errata-for-us-wolves/#findComment-5322451 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Priest Jbickb Posted May 30, 2019 Author Share Posted May 30, 2019 I see your point petey and now that I think more on it it is pretty hurtful to the effectiveness of the relic. That is rather unfortunate. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356237-new-errata-for-us-wolves/#findComment-5322595 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I want to sit there though. :/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356237-new-errata-for-us-wolves/#findComment-5322656 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Priest Jbickb Posted May 30, 2019 Author Share Posted May 30, 2019 Agreed I prefer a more aggressive play style Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356237-new-errata-for-us-wolves/#findComment-5322697 Share on other sites More sharing options...
