I haven't really used special characters over the years, what with them not being allowed in GW tournaments meant I steered away from them.
I remember using Khalida to stop a mate of mine running riot with a Dark Elf annointed, it was a special DE/Slaanesh list which allowed him to have an initiative 9 hero (Lord?) run around with a great weapon going first in any combat. Khalida at the time went at the same time as him so we had to dice off to see who went first. Khalida killed the Elf.
Apart from that... Oh, I've used Thorek as well. OK, apart from those two, I'd not really used any special characters. Recently though I've included Tetto’eko in my Lizardman army. I also dusted off my Dwarves and looked at Ungrim (inspired by a topic here) but it was infact one of the abilities he possess and any dragon slayer would have.
Page 45 of the dwarf book, column 2. Dragon slayer: When attacking monsters, the slayers attacks have the multiple wounds (d3) special rule.
Now MY OPPONENT who was playing Ogres said the multiple wounds counted against his monstrous infantry, cavalry etc, now I don't really use the models, didn't really use them in 6th or 7th either but wanted the models in my collection so while I liked the idea of chopping up some Ogre ass I'm not sure the Monster rule applies to anything other than say Dragons or greater daemons and the like.
Is my opponent right and I get d3 wounds against Ogres or am I right and it's just a single wound?
Cheers
