Space Wolves 1.2 FAQ update

[Ragnarok2070]

So when will the Space Wolves version 1.2 FAQ updates be posted to Army Builder with the Wolf Lord and Wolf Guard Battle Leader options for Power Fist, Frost Blade, or Frost Axe lowered from 25 points to 10 points for the weapon upgrade?

On the off chance that your not familiar with the FAQ here is a link to it on the Games Workshop Website http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_Cus ... y_2012.pdf

Bullet point 5 applies only to Wolf Lords/WGBLs in Terminator Armour and only for replacing the Power Weapon. I think it is already ready already. I verified in this in versions 1.20 (last combined SM) and 1.42 (current release).

the FAQ does not specify terminator armour only the point cost for Wolf Lord or Wolf Guard Battle Leader Weapon Options

"Page 84 – Wolf Lord, Options, fifth bullet point
Change “Power fist…………10 points” to “Power fist,
frost blade or frost axe…………10 points”"

Page 85 – Wolf Guard Battle Leader, Options, fifth
bullet point
Change “Power fist…………10 points” to “Power fist,
frost blade or frost axe…………10 points”

Read again what you've quoted, paying particular attention to "fifth bullet point". Now look at the unit entries, and count the bullet points under Options for each one


Wolf Lord

* Replace bolt pistol ...
* Replace power armour ...
* Replace power armour ...
* Replace Terminator armour's storm bolter ...
* Replace Terminator armour's power weapon ...



Wolf Guard Battle Leader

* Replace bolt pistol ...
* Replace power armour ...
* Replace power armour ...
* Replace Terminator armour's storm bolter ...
* Replace Terminator armour's power weapon ...



In both cases, the fifth bullet point specifically states Terminator armour. Those options were changed in the very first SW FAQ, and changed in AB40k to reflect them at that point - the latest FAQ does not change them again to refer to power armour.

Ok did not catch the part about terminator armor, I ussually just run a wolf lord with runic armor so I don't have to by the wolf tail talisman and a storm shield, all the benefits of a terminator armor and wolf tail talisman without losing the ability to chase down and wipe out my opponent after they fall back. plus if I drop the shield belt of russ gives me a better armor save then terminator armor. just had hopes for frost weapons to cost less.
