Moonstalker Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 5 hours ago, Karhedron said: Agreed, nothing concrete yet but I suspect the prices are roughly in the ballpark. For timing, I think the army box might be a bit further out. We have been rumoured to be getting a season Chaos. Emperor's Children getting March, World Eaters getting April for an Easter/Eaters pun and then DG/1KSons May/June (order uncertain). That would put Wolves around July, either just before/after HH 3.0 drops. All just conjecture on my part. The argument I heard for 4-8 weeks is that's supposedly, usually, what GW's timeline is for things that are "Now" on their road map. Otherwise it's anyone's best guess. Good news is I talked to the manager at my local GW and he says if I miss the pre-order, he'll hold one of the store copies for me.

Apokalypsi Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 So based on the reveal video and article, I'm thinking the Headtakers will be amazing with Ragnar. Assuming we keep something similar to the CoR detachment, he could become a character slaughterhouse by gaining Precision from the Headtakers. I think it'll make Saga of Warrior Born super easy to trigger. Him not having to worry about cutting through all the bodyguard will make it much easier to kill characters.

Karhedron Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 You may be right. Although any Captain would probably do well. Give them a Power Fist and trigger "Finest Hour" for 8 S8 attacks with Precision and Devastating Wounds.

Apokalypsi Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 True. Think I'd rather have Ragnar for advance and charge along with repeatable massive attacks for Assassination. The Dev wounds of the Captain would be nice though for making sure you got Warrior Born.

I’m curious how picking a new target will work. Do we pick a new target when the head taker unit kills the target or just when the target dies? Mastering that mechanic will be important. I was a little worried about grey hunters and blood claws on the News thread. But I think the movers and shakers will be the head takers and rumored terminators.

Moonstalker Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 As good as Ragnar could be with Headtakers, I'd like to see him be able to join Company Heroes like other Captains.

Grimtooth Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Great to see that our Grey Hunters and Blood Claws won’t just be in name only in with what appears to be True Grit and some version of Headstrong/Furious Charge on the Blood Claws. While the models would have been tempting to buy into this codex release, the fact that they are actually SW in the rules now seals the deal. Time to start thinking about an army list!

Just FYI...we already have a 1 CP core stratagem called epic challenge that grants precision. You should have been using Ragnar as a character killer this whole time to unlock warrior sagas Apokalypsi and Karhedron 1 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385581-new-era-for-space-wolves/page/2/#findComment-6103052 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apokalypsi Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Doh! I always forget about that stratagem, along with everything but Armor of Contempt. I need to play more regularly.

Print them out as cards and keep a little hand of the few you do not want to forget so you can peruse them quick. As for the wolves, I am so eager to start this army. Have the current combat patrol on my desk to start tomorrow. I would never speak ill of my watch, but I have been painting black armour for so very long. Space Wolf Grey is going to be fun.

Havok13 Posted Sunday at 06:11 PM Share Posted Sunday at 06:11 PM Emperor's Children next week. Could that mean SW in 3 - 4 weeks?

lonewolf81 Posted yesterday at 07:45 AM Share Posted yesterday at 07:45 AM (edited) They teased the world eaters release during Easter time so 2 weeks from now. Space wolves box is supposed to get released sooner along with the T-sons and then world eaters and deathguard according to the road map. So if emperors children were announced first then the following week should be T-sons and Wolves box and the week after that world eaters and deathguard :) (the 4 chaos books were also rumored to be released back to back so we will see) Edited yesterday at 07:49 AM by lonewolf81 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385581-new-era-for-space-wolves/page/2/#findComment-6104045 Share on other sites More sharing options...
