As a long time Space Wolf player, I really hope that
these rumours are largely inaccurate.
A:-If drop pods are taken, the whole army must take them.
This one is kinda what SW have to do now. Nothing new about that. Personally I think it's a "rubbish" rule idea
B:-Bjorn the Fellhanded has AV14 on all sides, better stats.
I don't want a AV14 dreadnought... it's just too much armour.. And plays into the hands of the "we hate space wolves" muppets
C:-There is some mad Wulfen character, who has his own personal drop pod. He can choose who he fights in combat, like a challenge in WFB. No-one else can fight him apart from the person he's attacking, unless said model is killed, in which case his squad can then attack him.
Eh? That just sounds broken and wrong.
D:-All rules for Named Characters have been rebuffed - all of them can take terminator armour for +50 points. All Named Characters models are getting re-done, if not for the actual release then in subsequent releases.
For one thing the terminators costs are wrong.. the rest ?
E:-Any character can take terminator for 50pts, which includes weapons.
I really hope not, sounds a stupid idea/rule
I could go on and on, however luckily for you, I won't
My FIRST impression of this lot was it was "written" by a 14 year old. Some of the stuff is already in use, some of it is incorrectly costed and quite frankly "beardy"
IF it is in fact true, then I may have to actually sell my army..
Guess who's had a "rubbish" day at work?
