GunnarRedsun Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 well, as you know i do (well at least i feel) that i have a great company built, it emcompasses enough models to field a regular wolves army and a 13th company, but i'll try and post up what i have here Wolf Lord: Gunnar Redsun Brew Lord (counts as wolf lord in game, for my 13th company list): Mjolner WGBL: Alric WGBL: Bran Rune Priest: Sven Wolf Priest: Olaf Wolf Priest: Arnor Ven Dread: Buliwyf 6 Squads of grey slayers 6 squads of grey hunters 3 squads of blood claws 2 iron priests (8 thralls) 10 Blood claw bikers, 8 blood claw assault marines 10 storm claw bikers 4 attack bikes 20 storm claws 10 wulfen 45 fenrisian wolves 20 wolf scouts 10 wg terminators 15 long fangs 3 land speeders 1 iron clad 2 regular dreads 2 predators 1 LRE 1 Land Raider 2 Crusaders 1 Redeemer (in the works) 2 whirlwinds (which i never use) 10 razor backs (yay half of mine are legal again!) about 12 Rhinos and enough wolf guard to give every unit one, and the Gunnar a special 5 man retinue thats about the short and fat of it. Mjorlner can be used as a wgbl if needed, and one of the iron priests is converted to be his chief "assistant" as are his thralls. the 13th company is the newer force and i haven't quite worked out all the kinks, but people seem to hate them so far, so i think i'm doing well :P. i don't really use the terminaters, but i made them a long time ago, and can't bare to leave them out, though they haven't seen action this eddition. the iron preists don't show up much eithor, nor do the rhinos (i like to go on foot for some reason), but i still like to have them around in case. i've been collecting and building wolves since second, and still have an old Leman Russ sitting around that i thought using as the basis for russ, but decided to go mostly plastic with him. anywolf, there you go. a list of everything in my army without looking in the cases, so i may have left something out, but i doubt it ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/162466-i-need-five-more-hqs/#findComment-1909386 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vash113 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Currently my Great Company contains: Wolf Lord Wolf Priest TDA Rune Priest TDA Wolf Guard Battle Leader TDA Wolf Guard Battle Leader Venerable Dreadnaught 4 TDA Wolf Guard 10 Wolf Guard Bodyguards 4 Wolf Scouts 5 Wolf Guard Pack Leaders 34 Grey Hunters 30 Blood Claws 5 Long Fangs I need to add some Blood Claw Assault Marines and I'm sort of drawing a blank as to what to add to that. It's not nearly enough troops I don't think but I'm not sure what to add, I deffinitely feel a full Great Company should be 200+ marines but mine is currently sitting around the 90 Mark... :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/162466-i-need-five-more-hqs/#findComment-1909398 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Mage Posted March 6, 2009 Author Share Posted March 6, 2009 I think you misinterpretted Vash, I dont own all of those... I own slightly less than half of that actually. The whole FA slot, most of the elites and all the HQs with only some of the heavy and about half of the troops. Thats my planned goal, what I want to get before 2012... about when sixth edition and the new C:SW comes out :P.

GunnarRedsun Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 god i'm scared of what will happen with the new codex :P i kinda got a lot of models that would need to be converted ;). but thats beside the point. i wish you luck in your endevour grey mage, i do. it can be hard to collect that many models :P. @ Vash, you can never go wrong with more grey hunters ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/162466-i-need-five-more-hqs/#findComment-1909407 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf89 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Of course what would my GC be?... well how many vindicators can I fit on the table in a 6'x8'... and that's about my list... :D Realistically though, my list would be filled with terminators, grey hunters and vindicators... all transported in Land Raiders, Rhinos, and thunderhawks... up the irons!... oh wait that one's already taken... umm iron within iron without!... still no... hmm... fangs of iron... sure why not. I'll post a list when I get home later this week, don't have AB on the laptop and I don't have my codex with me so no chance for me to do from memory... but if you can imagine tons of vindis, 500+ pt. terminator squads, and loads of rhinos filled with the most deadliest space marines known to man? then you've got my GC in mind.

Dark Bjoern Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Not what my GC would look like that´s what they already looks like: HQ: Leman Russ Logan Grimnar Ragnar Blackmane Sternhammer Ulrik the Slayer Njal Stormcaller Bjorn the Fell-handed Wolf Lord in TDA Rune Priest in TDA 2 Rune Priest in PA 1 Wolf Priest in TDA 1 Wolf Priest in PA 1 WGBL in TDA 1 WGBL in PA 1 WGBL on Bike 1 Venerable Dreadnought Elite: 19 WG in TDA 5 WG in PA 3 WGPL (2 PA, 1 Bike) 5 Dreadnoughts 12 SW Scouts 3 Iron Priests Troop: 44 GH 30 BC (One pack is magnetized so that i can use them with jumppacks) 3 Rhino 5 Razorbacks 3 Droppods Fast Attack: 8 BC Bikes 2 Attack Bikes 2 Land Speeder Heavy Support: 2 LR 2 LRC 1 LRE 3 Predator 3 Vindicator 10 Long Fangs Apocalypse: 40 Wulfen 2 LR Terminus All in all i´m about 13500 points. Still a lot (2000-3000points) to assamble, but there is light at the end of the tunnle. I´m not sure what i will add to reach the 15000 points. I´m fancy with the thought of some very wolfy units: 7 more Predator Annihilators <_< C´mon our Iron Priest had developed it. That´s our baby. And nothing frighting a player with a titan more then a wall of 30 Lascannons. @GunnarRedsun: Yeah, that my fear, too. I hope i don´t have to rework not too much.

WG Vrox Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 I pretty sure this thread went astray what you are saying is that you need 5 more HQs to lead this GC, so are asking us how those 5 HQs should be configured. I think you should know the joy of having a HQ on a bike so for that you need at least 2 HQs on Bikes and 1 should be a Rune Priest other WGBL/Lord both with SSs. You also don't seem to have experienced the fun of have a WGBL in TDA with a CML.. oh man you need one of these babies. And 2 more WGBL with TH/SS and PF/SS in PA. I will have no problem paying 15 points for SSs in our next codex. There are my thoughts for ya GM WG Vrox.

Thats my planned goal, what I want to get before 2012... about when sixth edition and the new C:SW comes out :D. I know, what I was saying is that I don't have a pictured idea of what my GC should look like when finished so I ticked off what I do have. Not sure what to add to it to get to the 200+ model mark, more Grey Hunters and Blood Claws I suppose... :rolleyes: Anyway as for your GC you can never go wrong with more Wolf Guard Battle Leaders, not as totally awesome as Wolf Lords but I've always been impressed with what they can do. @Gunnar -Yea I'm avoiding any of the... wierder combos I suppose like WGBL with Assault Cannon and so forth to try to minimise how much converted wargear I'll need for the new dex. It took me 6 months to fix all of my marine armies with the cursed 5th Edition C:SM, I really hope I don't end up having to change up my wolves too much.

ChainsawDR Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 In my minds eye I see a Space Wolf Great Company having more Blood Claws than Grey Hunters - but I'm open to suggestions otherwise. I came across my old unpainted SW army a few months back, and decided I'd try and build a Great Company, but on the cheap as I'm out of work at the moment. I've been buying and selling alot on Ebay recently (got £40 for some old vanilla marine models and terminators that I didn't need) and using that money, and through some really, really good deals I've managed to considerably add to my Space Wolf army!!! Note: I want to paint them all myself so I haven't been buying painted SW models. Here's what I've got so far (Red is what I already had, Green is what I've added): Logan Grimnar Ragnar Blackmane Ulrik the Slayer Njal Stormcaller Bjorn the Fell Handed WGBL PA Bolter & PF WGBL TDA CML WGBL TDA PS SB 4x WGBG TDA 5x Wolf Scouts (1x ML) 5x Wolf Scouts Dreadnought 6 Wolf Scouts 10x Blood Claws 10x Blood Claws 10x Blood Claws 10x Blood Claws 10x Grey Hunters 10x Grey Hunters 10x Grey Hunters 5x Long Fangs 5x Long Fangs Land Raider Crusader Whirlwind Predator Predator Predator Annihilator Rhino Rhino Rhino Razorback Land Speeder Land Speeder Attack Bike Attack Bike Bike Squad of 3 I've still got about 30 Pro Painted Dark Eldar and Chaos models, a vanilla Terminator with CML, IronPriest and 20 Vanilla maries to sell yet that I picked up on the cheap (hoping to add as many Vindi's and Drop Pods as I can and still keep a little float to keep buying and selling). I'm waiting on the ProPainted models to arrive in the post, I started a thread here a while back, posting some pics to see if any Long Fangs have fought against any of them in battle before (as some models I couldn't identify as I haven't played in 13 odd years, and I want to paint up a 1500pt force before I do). Just adding some more pics now if anyone can identify any of them. I know I'm being tight and should support GW, but I'll do that when I can find work (if anyone's looking for a good worker in Milton Keynes, send me a message!). ALES ARE ON ME!!! (on my tab please, I'll settle up later) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/162466-i-need-five-more-hqs/#findComment-1910767 Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bad, don't know what I was thinking there - it's been written a thousand times that Grey Hunters make up the majority of any Great company.
