MaveriK Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 you didn't list your HQ's! well, if your opponent is smart, your going to get shot down before your men can get into battle. Tell your HQ's to bring an umbrella cause there be templates falling down. Space Wolves are suppose to be cunning, their NOT suicidal. Consider using Drop Pods or Rhino's, Razorbacks or Crusaders... I know you want a footslogging army but you can use the tanks as walking cover, its something to consider!

Grimmwulf Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 I like foot slooging armys even if they are often at a disadvantage. But this beeing said you lack Long Range Fire and anti tank weapons. I would add some long fangs if you want to go all infantry or a dread or two. Also 5 Jump troopers is a bit small for a unit. they wiill be the focus of fire because they move faster than anything else that you have and are therefore a more immediate thread to your enemy. My only not-marine army is tyranids, and i can not really say anything about other armies you might face, but the bugs would totally butcher this list. Oh and if you are going to walk anyway add some wolf guard leaders. You are not limited to capacity ten as everybody who wants a transport :woot: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/180082-wolves-starter-army-full-of-footslogers/#findComment-2132090 Share on other sites More sharing options...
greese_m0nkey Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Now I assume you ment two of each of the specail shooting weapons. The second is free so you might as well use it.

slmellon Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 i have almost the same army, 3 10 man GH, 3 15 man BCs, plus amenities I had a 2500 pt Wolf Horde at the Ard Boy Tourney that I outnumbered my Ork opponent. I think it was 73 troops, its all about the spread, and running, run fast, assault quickly Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/180082-wolves-starter-army-full-of-footslogers/#findComment-2132237 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was 73 troops, its all about the spread, and running, run fast, assault quickly Outnumbering orks. hahah :) that's amazing. You sir, rock. I'm facing tau in a 2k battle comin up soon... I was seriously debating just 6X15 Bloodclaws, 3x10 WG, and as many skyclaws as I can pack in. He might out shoot me, but no army brings -that- much ap3 to the table.
