So far we've had news released about 2 Chapter Tactics for the Ultramarines and Raven Guard. Raven Guard- http://www.belloflostsouls.net/2017/07/40k-raven-guard-chapter-focus.html Ultramarines - http://www.belloflostsouls.net/2017/07/40k-deep-thought-chapter-tactics.html As per tradition, the non-codex compliant chapters will not be updated so fast, the new SM Codex will not be including Blood angels, Dark Angels, Grey Knights, Death Watch and Space Wolves. So what do we do while waiting for our chapter tactics, warlord traits, strategems? SPECULATE!!! Actually what I am really interested in discussing is whether we should expect our usual counter attack, meaning an extra attack even if we are charged, or should we expect something different? If something different, what unique chapter tactic would sound suitable for the Warriors of Fenris? Something to denote cunning and ferocity rather than just wolf wolf wolf attack attack attack. I guess the old counter attack wouldn't be so bad, probably even better considering charging units no longer get + 1 attack. But given the new initiative rules, we may not be able to utilise our chapter tactics until AFTER we're mauled. As heretical as it may sound, to keep with the whole "charge us at your own risk" theme, I would go with the Slaneesh daemons quicksilver rule, which says regardless of being charged, the Space Wolves would strike first. To differentiate from the Slaneesh daemons, maybe add a penalty to hit when doing so. Or perhaps something that can allow us to advance and charge. Thoughts? Lets talk about chapter tactics first before branching to warlord traits and strategems.
