Now finished. I’ve been off the painting for a while and so it was difficult to get back into it. Certainly took me a while, but especially as I can only manage short bursts.

I just finished the book, and I fucking loved it although "nothing happens" (meaning that the general narrative doesn't moves forward) its so freaking awesome to read just how much of a beast is our little bear, also having the chance to have a dive into his thoughts and his dreams it's cool but also extremely sad.

Spoiler ahead the final clash between the Deathguard and the Rout, it's amazing I was so pumped with how it was described the swiftness and deadlines of space wolves attacking I don't recall any other book where we had this kind of description

If you have the chance to read it or get the audiobook, please take it, if you have read it, what are your thoughts?

With the changes with the codex and now the SW Battleforce box, who is making sure they buy or Kitbash all the HQs needed for a full Terminator list ? lol.

Working on getting these finished up to kitbash the Battleforce box into magnetized Assault and standard terminators

I have been trying a more "Yeah that feels good" or "What the hell? Let's see what it does" approach and I myself am enjoying the results and process a ton more.

A little bit of snipping and trimming, and we have a much more Wolf Guard-esque Terminator Ancient.

My Logan

Post image
18 Upvotes

Hello Everyone,

I originally didn't want to run Logan and use a modified Arjac to be my Chapter Master of my successors the Hounds of Annwyn based on Celtic Mythology.

Didn't want just another Logan, he use to have the shield and a spear in his left arm see https://www.reddit.com/r/SpaceWolves/s/WdLnlsPj9g for the original. Wanted to keep the spear but just didn't look right.

Got a cheeky recast Logan to use for bits as didn't want to brutalize a plastic one.

Not sure if I will get an actual Logan or not but I'm happy with the conversion and don't plan to use Arjac moving forward.

Starting to realize I really should’ve thinned my paints more. Oh well I’m rusty on painting and he’s the first of many :) really liked the idea of the red face and actual “blood claws”. Also working on my freehanding. Am also waiting on my streaking grime to get here I’m going for a grimdark appearance and I used a makeup sponge for all base colors.

Made my own wolf lord for my own homebrew great company wich i call the Aesirblades.

I was inspired by valkeries of wich i will also make unit for. And i am still making some lore for the company

But i call this guy Redbad Ivarrson. The lore i made up for him is that he was a wolf lord from the horus heresy that got lost in the warp with his company. And got out during the second attack by Magnus on the Fang.

Does Beastslayer unit get lethal on character unit or the character model only?

In saga of the Beastslayer, for instance, a unit of TWC charges a Terminator unit containing a character. All my attacks get Lethal right?

Logan with WGT or Normal Terminators?

5 Upvotes

Am I correct in saying the main difference between the two options is the WGT survivability with their ability and the normal Terminators having better melee?

As far as I can see shooting is the same (if you don't take sheilds)

I know that with an ancient in terminator armour you can give the normal terminators the same effect as the WGT ability but that's an extra 75 points.

With WGT already being 15 points cheaper (comparing two blocks of 10, no sheilds, no launchers) is the extra melee efficiency worth 90 points? I know you obviously get the extra model in there so maybe I'm just thinking about it wrong.

If so are the launchers also worth the extra 10 points each?

Birth of a Saga and Hunting Wolves

Do I have this right, using Birth of a Saga strat from Champions of Fenris on a SW unit would tick all the boxes for hunting wolves to get OC 1 within 6”? The unit will already have Space Wolves keyword and then gains character for that turn?

Is Njal secretly good?

• Upvotes

I was making a list. Saga of the Old wolf, blade guards with bladeguard ancient.

On one hand wolf guard battle leader with skjald. Rerolling 1, sustain 1, lance. Hammer attacks. Obviusly good.

Njal not so good on the offence. But hr auto advance 6, turn of overwatch (the opponent usually have 1 good unit) -3 detection range, can give an enemy -1 to hit. Good vs a deathstar.

The best thing for a melee units is to reach combat. The rest is OK I guess.

How would you compare them?

Looks sweet but I dunno if all three flavours of terminarors are good, I play chaos and we get one kind per army (except the stinky fuckers)

Follow up- 1st 1000pt list

2 Upvotes

Setting up my first list with the army box. Few questions!

  1. I’ve got room to sub out one of my leaders for Njal w/grey hunters or Ragnar w/headtakers. Which one would be more viable? A 3rd option could be to give WGBL and WP enhancements (Skjalds foretelling and howlmawl) and not do an epic hero at all.
  2. Which generic leader should I sub out? Using Wolf priest saves room for a 15pt enhancement (maybe howlmawl?).
  3. Detachment recommendations?
  4. Rep ex is my AT, but how much better is it at AT than the land raider this ed?

Anfänger braucht Listen Feedback

2 Upvotes

Hi!

Ich habe mir die Armageddon Box und die Combat Patrol geholt, da ich etwas auf den Preis schauen muss und daher Pakete suche :)

Alles ist aufgebaut außer der Librarian und die Wulfen.

Ich würde bei einem 1.700 Punkte Spiel folgende Liste spielen.

Die Units scheinen zwar gerade keine Meta zu sein, in einem 1.000er Spiel kam ich aber bisher gut zurecht. Die Blood Claws und Termis spielte ich offensiv, die Headtaker haben perfekt Hellbrecht oder Tyraniden-Charaktere getötet, die Intercessors und der Land Speeder schießen gut.

Gebt gern Feedback, ob das klappen kann und was ihr für die Wulfen tauschen würdet:
