Space Wolves HI

[Castle Wolfenstein]

I have played 0 games since the new codex and supplement were released. For those of you that have played, whether live and in person or on TTS, how is the new army-wide heroic intervention working out? Better than anticipated? Worse? What are you doing with your armies to get the most out of it?

 

At first I was really underwhelmed by the change but since then have heard good things about it, including from the goonhammer team who are usually pretty spot-on with their assessments. So, I am really curious as to how this is playing out in practice.

 

Most of you are greater tactical minds than I so I'm eager to get your input.

It allows you to defend objectives during your enemies turn, giving you a combat you wouldn't otherwise have if they try to claim/deny in their turn.

 

It's amazing for countering chaff units.

HI won me a game today in round 3 of a GT (2-1 so far)

 

I will write the batrep later but basically I used 2 blade guard Veterans to HI 6" and kill a ravenwing landspeeder vengeance that was trying to contest the objective and deny me points (only 1 of the BGV was standing on it at the time).

 

It also denied moves my opponent wanted to make because I had things like a wulfen dreadnought chilling at another objective
