Q. Can Wolf Guard Terminators have a single-
handed weapon in addition to a heavy weapon?
A. Yes – this rule supercedes the note in the Wolf
Guard list entry. If they have a cyclone missile
launcher they may have a storm bolter instead of
a single-handed weapon. In addition, they may
select Runic Charms, Wolf Pelts and Wolf Tooth
Necklaces as if they had a ‘T’ next to their cost in
the Space Wolf Armoury.
Q. Can a pack of Blood Claws or Wolf Scouts be

led by a Wolf Guard in Terminator armour?
A. No it can’t. Note that this rule is an
amendment more than a clarification but removes
the need for more clarifications to resolve
contradictions that the combination creates. In all
other circumstances, units led by Wolf Guard in
Terminator armour cannot sweeping advance
after close combat, but can consolidate.
Q. The Headstrong special rule states that "Blood

Claws must charge if one of their models is
within 6" of the enemy, unless led by..." a
character. Does this mean that the Blood Claws
cannot rapid fire their plasma gun if the enemy
is within 6"?
A. Yes it does, as firing a rapid fire weapon would
prevent them from assaulting.
Q. Can Long Fangs be able to take a Razorback

as a dedicated transport?
A. This omission was an oversight – Long Fangs
may purchase a Razorback for the cost listed for
Grey Hunter squads.
