Have you considered that maybe those that use the C:SM for SW may not have access to the C:SW and that you could help them find a copy, or that they are waiting to till the new C:SW comes out before getting a C:SW?

 

This is just a thought.

Every few weeks the question where to get C:SW comes up. And ever time we tell our whelps that they can get it as a PDF for free from GW Canada. Meanwhile every SW here at the Fang should know that. And waiting for a new C:SW? Why? At first the rumor that we will get a new codex end of the year we hear for the last three years. I will believe it only when i hold him in my hands. And second, we are atm on a high. I had never been so successful with my SW since the 5th is out. So why should anybody wanted to play SW with anything else then C:SW? Our GH are as good as elite choises from other armies. Our Blood Claws get as much attacks as the same amount of Berzerkers and have enough power weapons/fist as most Veteran units. And they are cheaper. We SW are different from the BT in our mindsetting. Once a Wolf, always a Wolf. We like our traditions, we are proud that we are still on top even with a codex that is 10 years old. Those who refuse to use our codex shows only their lack of pride of their Legion and they dishonour Russ. I´m sure that most of my fellow Wolves will agree with me.

 

We are the Sons of Russ!

We are the 6th Legion!

We are the Emperor´s Finest!

We are Space Wolves!

I am merely stating there maybe be reasons. Have you considered that the group they play in dont allow PDF Codice? Noobs that havent come forward yet? Havent got a printer or it doesnt work and havent got an original copy?

 

Not saying that the C:SW is out dated, just there maybe reasons that could be discussed that, should they choose to come forward, without flaming them for doing so.

 

In the BT, if you dont use the C:BT then you are just a paint scheme, end of.

But it is a completely official Codex, as it was published and is the only published version of it. It's not like WFB Storm of Chaos Slayer armies or Grimgor's 'Ard Boyz armies. GW has just stopped printing them, so they send the rules themselves as a PDF to interested users. Saves them money by not printing an older than dirt Codex but still appeases the Space Wolves by making the Codex available. For example, I'm going to send for one since my Codex is older than dirt and falling apart. I'll use the PDF for when I'm gaming to try to keep the old Wolf a bit longer.

Damn, you Black Templars would not recognize humor even if it jumps to your face. That´s why we had choosen to be SW and you to be a BT. You guys are always to serious. Hadn´t it come to your mind that we´re only joking around? Do you really think we mean that that serious? You have to learn a lot about us SW. Most of us are in real life like our beloved SW. We´re loud, stubborn, headstrong, we like ale, have a good sense of humour and we have some kind honour codex. We say what we think even if other don´t like to hear it. But we are the last that would not allow an other his own opinion.

;) Thats one thing I like about visiting here, always some comment to make you laugh! Dont let on that i said this but you havent got some one like M2C who would jump on comments like these, they guy is like a MoS ;) . I just meant like if they are noobs, you could be scaring them from the fang and so it would be better to leave snares and be generous with the ale to get loose tongues flapping. ;) Anyway I best be off, dont want to miss evening Prayers by Chaplain ChonkE :P

*conks Grantyr over the head with the ES, only to have the ES bounce back and smack me in the head*

 

;) Huh. We'll, you are hardheaded there Grantyr. No arguing that.

 

;)

 

I guess someone who wants to be able to use all the C:SM goodies like Thunderfires, Sternguard, and Chapter Masters. Either that or someone who doesn't want to deal with gitz complaining about our Codex so they just use very Wolfy "Spess Mehrines".

…let me rephrase my question - what self-respecting Wolf Lord wouldn't use a combination of both the Space Wolf AND Space Marine (for when the SW Codex says to refer to the SM one) Codices (plus the Eye of Terror if he were a 13th Company Wolf)?

Whilst Brother Hadafix raises a good point, with the sheer volume of topics we get on "How do I get the SW Codex," and the fact that one of us usually responds within an hour, I find it difficult to believe that this is the case.

 

Personally, I would attribute it to "Codex Creep" - whether this is an actual phenomen or not is highly debatable but that's my reading of it from working at a store that sells GW products on a regular basis. It's less pronounced in Fantasy, but in 40K I see a noticable rise in sales for the the army which has the new products, usually lasting until the next release. Probably down to whelps lust for "Shiney Fings" (<¬Dreading the Stompa ;) )

 

But I think we're missing the point here. We are the Wolves. Those who feel the call of Russ, will play the Wolves by the Wolves through thick and (as for the past decade) thin. We might get some who leave for a spell - I myself am trying a Daemons and Renegades force for a change of pace. But the true sons return, always and forever.

 

Similarly, with the new Codex this Autumn, we will almost certainly have an influx of whelps. Some will pass through, and be gone as fast as they arrive. The Gates of Morkai will purge those unfit for Russ' service. Others will persevere, and be counted in the annals and Sagas of the Son's of Russ.

 

At the end of the day, we now who our true brothers are. We watch the halls of Russ, and remember our days of glory whilst persuing ever greater ones.

We are the Son's of Russ, for the All-Father and the Wolf King. From now, until the End Days and the Wolftime. We play by our rules, and noone elses.

Like the others said, we are the Space Wolves, it's treachery to Russ and the Allfather to use any other rules than the Space WOlf rules and why would you, even after a decade we still got the grit and power to whoop down anyone regularly.

 

I also don't see any valid reason a whelp shouldn't have the codex, there's multiple threads about it every week, answered within the hour and you can get the codex for free from GW Canada and there's no valid reason it shouldn't be accepted either, after all the Blood Angel's codex is almost brand spankin new and it's a PDF as well.

 

But of course we're joking we're not actually going to hate anyone who plays wolves the way they want too, but like said a true Space Wolf player will always play Space Wolves and will always stick by the Chapter's actual rules regardless, we've been through worse together as a community and we'll continue to do so through thick and thin, that's the pack mentality, the Space Wolf way and I couldn't see it any other way.

 

In fact it's getting harder and harder to justify playing any of my other Marine armies but Space Wolves. :D

My local gaming store, while admittedly appearing to be headed towards failure, doesnt allow special characters because of a single somewhat charismatic person. And while there are many of us who wouldnt mind he makes a few things up, guilts a couple of people... and wholla! Once again they are banned from the tournament.

 

Its not much of a stretch to say that its not allowed, official or otherwise.
