Keercrevlis Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 So does anyone think that GW will finally make a box of just Wolves? Without having to buy them 2 at a time or buying a box of goblin riders. I thinking a box of ten for $20 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/179629-fen-wolves-new-box-set/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamLando Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 They damn well have to I'd say, for starters the artworks of the wolves in the codex show a more similiar design to Freki and Geri from the Prospero Burns cover., htat is wolves who are huges and with snouts similiars to those of lions :D Secondly, well, the old goblins wolf rider wolves are just that, old they're way to small and undynamic tofit the feral monsters that rush into battle in hte universe of WH40K. And last but not least, the damn well have to make new wolves for use to have our wolf riders on, there is no way in hell one can convert Space Wolf riding one of them tiny puppies we've got on our hands right now. :lol: So, they have to give us new ones, and if they don't I for one will be freaking dissapointed.

Corver Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Yeah, got 26 of the old gobbo wolves, looks like i'm playing fantasy when i set them up! When are the orcs and gobbos being re done in Fantasy? Maybe they will re-do the wolf riders.

Lord Ragnarok Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 That update was fairly recent for orcs and gobbos. I have 45 of the old dire wolves (one of which I think is a gobbo wolf). The artwork for the Fennie wolves looks like the same artwork that's on the cover of the Wolf Heresy book coming out next year.

Levitas Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 I cant see a release of just wolves. From a business point of view its a fairly small and niche unit, not every wolf player will take them. But I do suspect forge world will do Thunderwolves. so we should get nice meaty futuristic wolves from them we can use. Although it would hit the wallet.

mHz Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 What about these wolves? http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/...otCatGameStyle= Not sure where these fit in, or even their exact size, but I am planning on grabbing a pack to check.

The Forgetful Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 I would bet my right hand that FW is going to do a box of FW. *laughs* did you see what I did there?

Brother Amarel Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 So does anyone think that GW will finally make a box of just Wolves? Without having to buy them 2 at a time or buying a box of goblin riders. I thinking a box of ten for $20 They current GW 'bitz' selection for them is for 5 of them at a fairly decent price. Or you could buy Chaos Hounds and just green stuff them a little - they're pretty fierce looking, nice sculpts and relatively cheap.

NovaScotius Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 There's a rumour circulating on the Warseer Fantasy forum about a batch of new cavalry models coming out for a WHFB World Wide Campaign next year - Goblins were mentioned in the list, so this could mean shiny new Wolf Riders... with re-sculpted wolves... or it could be utter tosh... but here's hoping!

TeamLando Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Which would still leave us the problem of not having wolves with legs that can be somewhat easily converted into riders :/ I mean it probably works somehow, Green stuff from scratch or seomthing, and would be a fun challenge to take on. But damn would it be nice to have offical Wolf Riders too.

Keercrevlis Posted September 29, 2009 Author Share Posted September 29, 2009 Sorry guys I completely forgot about the five pack. For some reason I was thinking there was a two for $8 pack.

thade Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Sorry guys I completely forgot about the five pack. For some reason I was thinking there was a two for $8 pack. How big are the wolves in that five pack? I'm suspicious they're not big enough for a marine to ride on. How does one do mounted marines?

Grey Mage Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Theyre not big enough for a marine mount... theyre about the same size as a marine. Wich means they ARE the perfect size for fenrisian wolf packs at the least.

Well that's good in that I really want a pack of those things...but bad in that I have no idea how to mount a marine on a wolf...let alone several, which I think I want as well.

grot Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 just wondering if anyone has considered the Warg riders from lord of the ring game, never actually seen them so not sure on the size (are LotR models alot smaller?) but may be good for Fen wolves packs (probs too small for marines to ride). you get 6 for 15 pounds. they have a much better Fen Wolves look aswell long limbed and snub snouts, just a thought. http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/...otCatGameStyle= Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/179629-fen-wolves-new-box-set/#findComment-2129327 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Mage Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 They stink... they look like Hyenas. I wouldnt touch those with a 10 foot paint brush. But thats just me.

Iacton Qruze Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 If you wanted to be silly, just to get the TW cavalry on the board, take an old wolf the goblin riders were on, take a biker marine, equip him, stick him on the wolf, and put it on a 40mm base. It would be the dumbest looking thing in recent memory, but it'd be WYSIWYG & all GW components, so who could say no? :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/179629-fen-wolves-new-box-set/#findComment-2129841 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldenhaller Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 lol...that would look pretty damn dumb...almost as bad as a Warg :D been working on things using the lions and sculpting for thunderwolves and using gobbos as fenrisian wolves but I do hope that we get new wold models as the old ones are just that. With the new plastics can you imagine all the gumph they'd put on those prues as extras? ~O Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/179629-fen-wolves-new-box-set/#findComment-2129847 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think with the mount that Canis is riding being the size of a rhino, you could hide a couple blood claws in the wolf and have them jump out during the assault.

Growler67 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 With the new plastics can you imagine all the gumph they'd put on those prues as extras? ~O If they do a resculpt for their standard wolf model, you would probably get: left and right bo halves, one of 3 tails and one of 3 heads. Much like it is now with the plastic wolf models. I wouldn't expect many if any extras with these, if they do in fact produce them. They've rescuplted the "Cold One" models several times but the wolfs are still the same OLD ones. Their time is due, IMO, just not sure if they will be done and announced with the second wave/Gobbo release.
