Brother Ariman Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I'm pretty sure 2x frostblades don't stack in the same way 2x powerfist dont stack. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/181667-chosen-my-wolf-lord/#findComment-2150395 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heimdal Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 i posted a thread asking for ideas on wolf lord configurations and this is what ive chosen for my hq.2 frost weapons giving him +1 attack and +2 strength Dual frostblades do not add up to +2S. As only one special weapon can be used at the same time on the same character you will only get +1S from the frostblades.

dudelord Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Ignoring the sheer anger of the dude above (I had a little giggle when I saw all the caps... He is right though). That Wolf Lord must run up a lotta points, how many points is the army your fielding him in? Also are you deploying him with Thunder Cav? I apologise if this was covered in another thread and I just haven't looked around yet (it's early morning and everything on the front page is new for me lol) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/181667-chosen-my-wolf-lord/#findComment-2150443 Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Hunter Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Jarl, the wolf lord looks good. Your post was not a stupid mistake, the wording is iffy on the 2 frost blades. At very least it will be a cool model, and effective on the table.

On the other hand, your still Str 6 because of your TWM. Wich is rather nice, and puts you in Daemon Prince Territory.

Seems the only people that possibly think that 2 Frost Blades = +2str happen to have a join date in the current or last month. in response to Brother Ramses i've been a member of this website for over a year and a half but have changed my email address so made a new account. as far as gorm is concerned if you dont like the post then dont answer. simple as that to Dudelord i have a 3000 point army because i had a 2000 point army in the making for the old codex but with the new codex and all the new models and units i bumped it up to 3000 and yes as soon as i can figure out a way i like to model the thunderwolves i will be taking thunderwolf cavalry (the conversion topics already posted have given me some ideas) and finnally ive ammended my list so that he has a frost blade and a powersword. as far as how he looks im debating between using the Canis Wolfborn model except i would switch his torso with Jaghata Khan's (minus the white scar iconography) and use green stuff to match up the capes and fill in the fur. or of just using the wolf and making the rider bare chested and covered with tattoos arms raised Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/181667-chosen-my-wolf-lord/#findComment-2151701 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cambeul Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Why give him a Frost Blade and Power Weapon? or at least why pay for it. Just give him his Frost Blade and CCW, or even a Bolt Pistol since he still will benefit from having a Additional CCW. Maybe look at the Privateer Press Model for the Khador Dragoon named Fenris, he is mounted on a Horse with two Swords, may give you a idea for a Pose?

Wolf Lord Karulfr Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 You don't get anything from having a second Frost Weapon. Because it counts as a power weapon with an added benefit, you get the bonus attack for using ccw or pistol in the other hand. This is a very similar layout to what I would like for my Wolf Lord.

This is a very similar layout to what I would like for my Wolf Lord. ok so iv'e decided to downgrade my wolf lord to a WGBL. this will cheapen him up a bit and fit better into my storyline because while i like the idea of making an awesome character it bugs me when people make a new chapter master for a chapter that already has one or in the case of space wolves make a wolf lord when theirs already 13 named (idk why it just does). because he is not a Wl anymore he cannot take a belt of russ and so loses his invulnerable save (he gets one from his runic armour but it can only be used against psychic attacks). and since its pointless and a waste of points to take a power weapon in combination with a frostaxe ive decided to give him a storm sheild. while he's not as good as he was as a wolflord he's still pretty good. im planning on making him a berserker with alota bare skin and tattoos. im thinking of having him originate from Bran Redmaws company in that Bran seems like he'd have alot of berserkers (besides wulfen) and my army list naturally matches the description of Bran's force. for a name im thinking of something Bloodmoon. maby like Styrbjorn Bloodmoon or Styrbjorn Raven feeder. what do you guys think?

Heimdal Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 The beuty with Wolf Lords is that you can create a whole new Great Company and a storyline for him. Logan has been the longest living Wolf Lord so far (excluding Bjorn who was the first Great Wolf after Russ), and Logan is about 700 years old. This means that there´s at least 150 other Wolf Lords during the age of Imperium that you can create. So I say go ahead, make a Wolf Lord :D (and that extra wound your WL will get is pretty nifty) -------------- -edit- Wolf Lords are equivalent of company commanders. A Great Wolf is equivalent of a chapter master. There is only 12 named. The 13th company is there for rememberance.
