New Wolf Player

[Rhellion]

I just picked up the Wolf Guard Terminator boxed set, and made my Rune Priest and terminator Wolf Guard. Here is what I'm planning on working towards:

 

 

 

 

 

120 Rune Priest, terminator armor ~Wolf Guard

 

105 Wolf Priest, wolf tail talisman ~Blood Claws

 

371 Wolf Guard Pack

-terminator, assault cannon, power fist

-terminator, twin wolf claws

-terminator, wolf claw, storm bolter

-terminator, thunder hammer, storm shield

-power armor, power fist ~Blood Claws

-power armor, power fist, combi melta ~Grey Hunters

-power armor, power fist, combi melta ~Grey Hunters

-drop pod

 

150 Dreadnought, wolf tooth necklace, drop pod

 

190 9 Grey Hunters, power weapon, melta gun, drop pod

 

190 9 Grey Hunters, power weapon, melta gun, rhino

 

240 14 Blood Claws, melta gun, power fist

 

070 Land Speeders, multi melta, heavy flamer

 

070 Land Speeders, multi melta, heavy flamer

 

260 Land Raider Crusader, multi melta

 

115 5 Long Fangs, 4 missile launchers

 

115 Vindicator

 

1996

 

 

 

 

 

I trimmed up a few things, and hopefully balanced the list a little more. Question first off... keep the Vindicator or add another identical Long Fang squad instead? Second Question... keep the second Land Speeder, or drop it for a Fenrisian Wolf pack (of either 9 wolves or 8 plus a cyber wolf)? Characters and Wolf Guard are attached to the ~unit listed. Blood Claws are in the LRC.

I like the list overall. A few thoughts:

 

I would drop the Wolf Tail Talisman from the Wolf Preist, give a combi Melta to the WG in the Blood Claws group.

 

Second, I would swap the melta there for perhaps a flamer. It's free and well BS 3 is a Guardsmen not a Marine! I played a guy in a tournament this weekend that had melta in BS Claw squads and well it didn't impress me and makes me further understand why I don't put melta guns in IG line squads.

 

I also think a Cyclone is a better choice over the Assult cannon. The dread with the Wolf tooth isn't a huge need either. You have a RP there that is going to drop in and be able to soak up most psychic attacks with his rune weapon. To me you could turn those extra points into something else.
