Hfran Morkai Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I've spent a lot of time with our codex recently and tried making a list from it, however I just can't, which is odd considering that Grey Hunters have become cheaper. I just couldn't get a grip with the list and make something that I feel fits the fluff and the way I want to play. It might just be awe at looking at all the new stuff but I'm concerned I won't be able to create a list I'm happy with. Anyone else been having issues?

Wolf Guard Dan Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 The only trouble I've been having is deciding what to put it. It all seems pretty great especially the new units like Lone Wolves, TW Calvary, and Wolf Packs. Not to mention that some things from the old codex are more usable now like long fangs(cost came down). Your rules being Fluff>models>rules. How do you view how the wolves should play according to the fluff? Start from there and build on it.

Thorgrim Blackwolf Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 The main problem I am having at the moment is deciding what to do with the spare points and what to replace my MM attack bike squadron with. I am also debating whether or not to start playing a foot slogging list, as I have had good results using foot sloggers while testing the new codex at my GW and I fancy a change from mechanised.

Natanael Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I've had problems with fitting all the stuff that I want into one list, but that's about it.

lunchb0x Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 This might help you make a list.... old codex : characters cheap, units expensive. New Codex : Characters expensive, units cheap. Run with that and make an "all" list. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/178994-im-slightly-confused/#findComment-2117775 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Thorgrim IMO, if you want to drop the transports add some swiftclaw bike packs and add your MM attack bikes into those swifclaw packs, killing two birds with one stone. And it will still give you some maneuverability(sp?) You probably won't be able to get all your attack bikes in swiftclaw packs cuz of limit 1 per pack but I guess it depends on your list (EDIT: How many points you get from holding back on transports).

Thorgrim Blackwolf Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 The problem is that I only have one full-sized bike pack but they were one of ideas that I had bouncing round my head to go into the list. Hmm, so many choices and so little time...... ;) :D Cheers Thorgrim Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/178994-im-slightly-confused/#findComment-2117805 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durfast Spiritwolf Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I've always been a fan of lots of troops over bells and whistles with no WHPLs or transports etc, so this sits fairly comfortably. However, lately I've been drawn to drop pods so... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/178994-im-slightly-confused/#findComment-2117861 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valerian Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I've had problems with fitting all the stuff that I want into one list, but that's about it. Me too; now I might have to take up Apocolypse just fit everything in. If I played more often, I could just rotate things into play, but since I don't get to play as often as i would like, I have to fight the urge to take everything and take units according to their ability to complete the tasks I need for them to accomplish. I discuss this concept in Valerian's Guide to Army Building, and will add to it soon.
