To quote Carl from ATHF, " Whatever, I don't care!" I guess that sums it up for me about the Jaws power. Its going to be mildly annoying, but keep your models mounted and it can't be used! ( Right?) Yeah you are gonna bag a Carny or two but for the most part its a non issue. I think it's amusing that the Space Wolves hate psychers but have developed some of the best powers in the game, but again whatever! What I find more annoying is the point cost to ability ratio on the basic troops. They seem pretty darn good, but again it was kinda expected. Space Wolves players deserve that bone for playing a gimped army for so long.

Just a little ribbing on the part of the space wolf players made in good fun since they all seemed to have dissapeared. Lets get some gaming going and see if those codexs are any good.
Gaming doesnt have to be all serious buisness and pissing and moaning. How about we see some space puppys in action and see what those codexes can really do?

No pissing and moaning, here. Just getting in some good natured ribbing of my own. Life's too short to take it seriously.
I've been gaming some, when I can find the time, just not nearly as often as I used to, work has me too busy. I play with people who are fun to play with and/or against and prefer not to play those who aren't.
I work on the weekends that I don't have my kids, Sundays are out, so that would explain one reason I haven't been around I'd love to get in some games with some of DaBoyz. It's just hard to make our schedules work out.

Yup I hear you Soleman. Just trying to get in some games with the space puppy players myself. Would really like to see how the codex plays out in a good players hands. I agree with you here too. I do the same thing, better to play with poeple you know are going to be fun to play against rather than people that will not be. Good luck with your gaiming, hope you can get more games in.

Yeah you are gonna bag a Carny or two but for the most part its a non issue. I'm not sure about it affecting mounted models, I don't think it specified that much. But honestly, I don't think it's really all that worth taking in a balanced take all comers list. I used it every turn that my Rune Priest was on the board against Brian in the first game I played with the new codex and like he said I only killed 2 berserkers the entire time. If I were playing against bugs, I could use it against carnifexes with an average of 50% success assuming I didn't fail any psychic tests. Plague marines wouldn't like it all that well either, but I couldn't take out enough per turn to warrant taking it. An upgraded Rune Priest costs an extra 50 points and I personally like Storm Caller. There are other options better out there to compliment that IMO. Fury of the wolf spirits gives you 3 S5 AP- shots and 2 S4 AP2 shots with a range of 12" and I think a pinning effect. Or you could take Murderous hurricane in which a unit within 18" suffers 3D6 S3 AP- hits and all terrain it goes through during its next movement is both difficult and dangerous. Those seem more useful to me. I could be wrong, but the next person to play me can expect to see me trying one of those powers instead of Jaws of the world wolf. And Brian, no worries, Kharn will get some lovin in return soon as well. If he stops running from Ragnar that is! ;D
