    As a proud Son of Russ, I will die.on the hill of not playing Space Wolves with a Gladius detachment. Which is not to say it is not a good detachment but I don't see the point of playing non-standard chapters as Codex marines.

    As specific beats general, murderfang should be allowed to fight every single time he’s targeted as he is explicitly allowed to do so, which would override the general rule.

      Right. No one gets upset you can advance and charge with Ragnar despite explicitly stating in the core rules you can not do so. People are just afraid of Murderfang. Lol

      Hey Jord here, it's a weird one right, the death company dread has the exact same rule, it will get clarified in the future I hope but as of right now we believe it is only a single activation in the fight phase due to the core rules but we are hoping to get clarification on this! I agree it should be everytime though for sure

      I agree with this. For example, the Overwatch stratagem says it can only be used once. The latest Warhammer world tournament had rules writers as judges, and they said that all rules that allow you to use a stratagem again (like rites of battle) let you overwatch twice. So Codex Rules Trump Core all the way

    The Wolflord can give his unit a stratagem for 0cp, taking Gladius gives you Honour the Chapter, which gives you Lance and +1 AP... Gladius also gives you the Assault Doctrine - Advance and Charge

    Absolutely great video, love the insights. Nice to see my rookie brain had a bunch of the same thoughts as these experienced and capable players. Makes me feel like I'm on the right path. *especially* the TWolf Cavalry with Wolf Lord + Black Death. I run 2 units of TWolf Cav with Wolf Lord (and a Battle Leader) mostly because theyre cool as hell. But also because with Lethal Hits from the battle leader and just huge weight of dice, you can really really punch above your points cost. Since yall mentioned it, I havent really ever found myself using that cheeky free 6" move though. I think maybe once?
    I actually quite like the sagas. I find myself stacking my army pretty captain and wolf lord heavy just for the free stratagems so I can make sure I have the "active sagas" I need. It seems to work decently well. And (of course) I play hyper aggressive. Deep Striking terminators w/ termi captain and frost weapon to try and pick off a character turn 2. I like giving a Primaris Captain Black Death with their master crafted power weapon. Using the Finest Hour ability gives you a total of 8 attacks and Dev Wounds with anti vehicle/monster. I run Bjorn up the board early and often to try and force Saga Of The Bear.
    I just wish they'd let sagas go into effect instantly and allow us to trigger more than 1 per turn. That'd be the bump, I think, that the detachment needs.

    • @HardRockinAmigo
      @HardRockinAmigo 11 місяців тому

      Hello there. For me, giving a Wolf Lord with TH+Black death lethal hits makes the WL worse imo. Since you don't role to wound you can't score any criticals and therefore don't bypass the save. Maybe I am overthinking. But I would run without lethal hits. But having the extra character with a thunder hammer is still tasty.

    • @ChopsTV
      @ChopsTV 11 місяців тому +1

      You are entirely correct and I wasnt entirely clear. When I run Black Death on a Wolf Lord, I dont run the Battle Leaders. When I run the Battle Leaders, I put Black Death on a Primaris Captain. Using Finest Hour, you get 9 attacks at 2 dmg with Dev Wounds and anti vehicle/monster 4+. Thats like 8 mortals, give or take, which will finish off a vehicle thats taken some dmg during shooting.
      That said, I think there's a lot of value to be had in running Battle Leaders/Lieutenants on critical units for the Lethal Hits buff and not really trying to chase Saga Of The Beast Slayer too hard. Saga of The Warrior Born is the one that lets you advance and charge with Relentless Assault and it gives exploding 6s. Thats where all my saga chasing energy goes.
      But then, I'm also new to this. Maybe I'm over spending points to take Lieutenants when I could take cheaper anti vehicle units and get Lethal Hits via saga. Whatever. Big packs of wolves are cool.

    Yet to play 10th to be fair but when crunching through the index I think the saga stuff is a bit easier to set off than I first thought. With wolf guard pack leaders getting the character key word. Great review by the way guys as are all of them. Can't wait to get my first 10ed game under my belt of Russ.

    why does no one mention the fact that our first born melee marines have 1 less attack than assault marines base, as a melee based chapter this should annoy more of us especially since in editions past blood claws got an extra attack over assault marines because of their blood lust lore wise. i get we can take 5 more bodies and get the same attacks and extra wounds but thats not the point, lol

      And the benefits for completing them aren't that powerful imo, or at least the benefit doesn't match the level of effort made to get them. A lot of Sagas feel like they're only achievable later in the game as well.
