Rune Priest Ridcully Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 In my 1750 list, I have 70pts left to spend, what sould I take, I am thinking of dropping the lone wolf with Mark of the wulfen and melta bombs, and am thinking of taking either wolf scouts or an Iron priest, both will be major conversions, the Iron priest for his Cyber wolves and the scouts since I will convert them in MK1 Thunder armour, what do you guys think will be best for an all round list, I have a dreadnought, vindicator and Razorback so the Iron priest could be useful,as could be the T5 cyber wolves, but the wolf scouts could take a melta gun and power weapon, and if i can get the points, a plasma pistol. I have been playing space wolves for several years now and never used wolf scouts before, always took Jason Ogg the trusty Iron preist, he coulden't repair stuff but he was an effective combat charecter and leader of a grey hunter pack, so now i cant decide, both conversions are tempting, both rules wise are fairly nice. any advice appreciated Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/186598-what-to-do/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Mage Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 You cant do Wolf Scouts- 70pts wont even buy a basic pack. If your light on anti-tank, take a speeder with a MM+HF instead.

Rune Priest Ridcully Posted December 6, 2009 Author Share Posted December 6, 2009 sorry, my bad, i ve got 70pts left to spend and am thinking of dropping the lone wolf to raise an extra 40pts, 110pts in total, so am not sure what to those, the Mk1 thunder armour clad scouts or the iron preist with 3 cyber wolve, perhaps 4 if i drop his wolf tooth necklace or find another 10pts somewhere, but the land speeder idea is very nice as well,now I have 3 nice choices!

lunchb0x Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 With out seeing your full list we have no real way of knowing what will benefit you . Though, I would recommend, running a hunterkiller on every vehicle that can take them if you have that many points left. And let them rip on turn one!!!

nurglespuss Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I would say, if you have that many points left, and your not sure what else would fit in, but that you are loosing an elites choice, then: A: replace the saved points with a dreadnought (elite for elite) B: spend the points on upgrading everything you do have (e.g. make that power weapon a frost weapon, extra armour, sagas etc) C: pick something you think would be 'cool' something you fancy trying, but haven't yet. D: bulk out existing squads. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/186598-what-to-do/#findComment-2206805 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORKILL Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I would opt for scouts with meltabombs. They can affect the game alot more before dying. The LS only survives long enough to shoot 1/2 the time. I don't see the priest as being useful without a mount.
