Mal Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Nice job... I spotted a few mould lines that need to be taken care of, but other than that they are looking good.

lord_bunny Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 best-army-EVER! Shame its space wolves, master of the unfair unbalanced rules. And fluff. Still very charactful.

Mal Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Heh, you ever tried to write a balanced SW army for 1500 points? its not as easy as you'd think....

lord_bunny Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I play against the most unbalanced sw army IN THE WORLD. and the kid doesn't know the rules, so he cheats and makes it up. He also uses 13 company combined with the normal SW list, so he gets no restrictions. and we beat him in appocolapse! one melta bomb, one baneblade, one turn. thats all I can say.

Mal Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I didn't think you could play 13th company with normal SW, wern't they in the lost and damned armies?

NemFX Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 I LOVE what you did with the fantasy Chaos warriors. Cutting them to turn it into just cloaks? Awesome. I just used them as-is, Albeit with greenstuff boots and some other bits added in.. Yours are far more epic. +watch Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143207-pre-heresy-space-wolf-army/#findComment-1658670 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikolakhs Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Man those terminators are simply amazing, good job. Also the heavy weapons guys get the same credits. The one problem I have is in the pic 3rd from bottom, the guy has a hole in the barrel so far away from where the actual end of the barrel of the bolter is, it looks really wierd. Good work, keep it coming! -nikolakhs- Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143207-pre-heresy-space-wolf-army/#findComment-1658715 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghosty Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 I play against the most unbalanced sw army IN THE WORLD. and the kid doesn't know the rules, so he cheats and makes it up. He also uses 13 company combined with the normal SW list, so he gets no restrictions. and we beat him in apocalypse! one melta bomb, one baneblade, one turn. thats all I can say. So.. your opponent is a complete idiot, and that makes Space Wolves as a whole unfair and unbalanced.... ok good luck with that logic. I want to buy those terminators and wolf scouts off of you! They're so freakin' sweet. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143207-pre-heresy-space-wolf-army/#findComment-1658807 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pope Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 One of the most over used words on these forums is probably "amazing." I think I'm going to adhere to the cliche... Because that looks amazing.

barek Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 I'm looking an my own models now. So sad ..... And as I might add dear young mr Bunny: Wolves are NOT overpowered and it IS hard to make a balanced 1500 p list. I suggest you take a look at the relevant topics in our beloved space wolves forum Edit: added second remark Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/143207-pre-heresy-space-wolf-army/#findComment-1659151 Share on other sites More sharing options...
lord_bunny Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 'So.. your opponent is a complete idiot, and that makes Space Wolves as a whole unfair and unbalanced.... ok good luck with that logic.'- No thats not my logic, I was talking about the rather, ahem slow gamer because the OP stated that he stuggles to make a list thats balanced. By reading the army book, I can tell that its not realy that fair, having bonus against other armies for simple 'cool look' and an obcene amount of attacks and bonuses. so nah nah :rolleyes: on topic.... any updates?

Vash113 Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 By reading the army book, I can tell that its not realy that fair, having bonus against other armies for simple 'cool look' and an obcene amount of attacks and bonuses. Standard Grey Hunters cost 2 points more than normal marines, and pay a rediculous ammount for the SW equivalent of a Sergeant, not to mention a complete lack of heavy weapon options. Long Fangs are the source of our only heavy weapons and base cost 3 points more, not to mention the cost of heavy weapons, or the Pack Leader which is alone more than twice the cost of a normal marine, not to mention the squads complete lack of ablative wounds making them a very vulnerable heavy support option. Also throw in that Terminators base cost 6 points more than the vanilla equivalents and have to be taken as a bodyguard for an expencive character, Assault Marines in the SW book are 8 points more than the Vanilla Assault Marines and have -1 WS/BS. Thats also not considering Space Wolves have to have an HQ for every 750 points, and all but one HQ option is 0-1 so SW are stuck having to spend a lot more on HQ's than other armies. Not to mention that Wolf Guard are limited to no more than 20 in any army no matter the size. For a Codex that's 2 editions old the Space Wolves really are not overpowered or unfair. The army pays for every bonus it gets, and many units taken for granted in other marine armies cost a lot more in the Space Wolves than they do elsewhere. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Anyway as others have said I have to say this is hands down the best converted Space Wolf army I've ever seen, and the Leman Russ model is spectacular as well!
