Warhorse47 Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 In why I have such a large SW force, it really happened almost accidentally. I won several very lowball bids and wound up with far more than I realized. Oops!

Vash113 Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 I have to agree that options are nice. If I feel like I can easily split my Space Wolves into 3 entirely different 1500 point lists, it's nice to be able to change up the style and composition of my army depending on what I want to do in any given came. Do I want speed? Fine I've got Rhinos, Land Raiders and Skyclaws for that, do I want numbers? I bring out the Blood Claws, firepower? Long Fangs and 2 Special Weapon Grey Hunters. Close combat? Wolf Guard and cc armed Grey Hunters. Hopefully I'll be able to expand the capabilities of my army more over time but I still don't see it likely to get much over 6000 points. But after I have most of the units in the Codex there is a point where I'd prefere to start a new Army Project rather than continue to expand the same army.

OnlyInDeath Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Well, the old dex I had about 7k worth of wolves, but with the price adjustments in the new dex, combined with me picking up a bunch more models, I honestly couldn't tell you where I'm at. I guess it depends on what I would make wolfguard, HQ's, etc. For me though, my end goal is to have a complete great company, and I am well on the way. I have I think 50 grey hunters as of right now, plan on having 60 I have 15 bloodclaws, would like to have 30 I have about 15 longfangs (pretty much just for weapon options at this point) 5 scouts, want to have 10 About 10 termies and the sprue options for another 10 PA wolfguard (I would like about 20 total, so I'll be right on once I get the extra legs lol). A slew of HQ choices. And all the armor you need to be an Iron Wolf :( Crazy to think that after 10 years of slowly building up my force, I'm almost there!

Wolf Guard Nostromo Posted April 3, 2010 Author Share Posted April 3, 2010 Interesting stuff, thanks for the thoughts, replies and comparisons. Fair enough to those of you with multiple big armies. Well, the old dex I had about 7k worth of wolves, but with the price adjustments in the new dex, combined with me picking up a bunch more models, I honestly couldn't tell you where I'm at. I guess it depends on what I would make wolfguard, HQ's, etc. For the record, I've taken mine as minimums, so all wolfguard are basic (i.e. not lone wolves or wgbls) Crazy to think that after 10 years of slowly building up my force, I'm almost there! I suppose the obvious question is, what will you do when it is!? I'm aiming to have about 12k of wolves which will give me a full great company alongside all the extra bells and whistles. I've mostly got the models, and Im really still converting and adapting what I already have for the new codex. I just need forge world (I am a FW fanatic) to produce some Thunderwolves and I'll have a pretty, but never totally, complete force...

OnlyInDeath Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Crazy to think that after 10 years of slowly building up my force, I'm almost there! I suppose the obvious question is, what will you do when it is!? At that point, most likely collect small forces of other armies, most likely staying around the 2.5k mark (enough to have variety in a 1.5-1.85k game). I also really want to get a WHFB army or two up and running. My bretonnians need some love, and I have the starting of a Dark Elf force.

wolf363839 Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Before I eBay'd my old wolves, I had about 13K. I recently replaced the entire lot for a new army. I have magnetized these new Wolves so I can avoid have tons and tons of extra models just to field the options. Also magnetized the new tanks so all weapon options are available. Once completed the new force will be about 6K-ish. This is the army I'll have the rest of my life, no matter what new codex the Wolves get!!!

Dark Bjoern Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Meanwhile i´ve 17,5K SW. Close to 300 SM in PA and TDA and 30+ Vehicles.

Vash113 Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Meanwhile i´ve 17,5K SW. Close to 300 SM in PA and TDA and 30+ Vehicles. Yea I similarly have multi hundreds of Marines. At the moment I've got 451 Space Marines and 20 Vehicles. What can I say, I got a lot of Space Marines on the cheap but Vehicles are very, very expensive to purchase, especially in any number. I've already spent $240 just partially mechanising my Wolves, and I've still got another 1/2 of the army that needs transports. Of that 139 Marines and 7 Tanks are Space Wolves.

Wolf Guard Nostromo Posted April 5, 2010 Author Share Posted April 5, 2010 Meanwhile i´ve 17,5K SW. Close to 300 SM in PA and TDA and 30+ Vehicles. 30+ vehicles... thats a serious investment as Vash rightly points out - fair enough to you B) . I almost have that - My entire 8.5k minimum is mounted (including pods!), and I have about 26 fully painted vehicle models. The cost is pretty steep, so most of them are ebay repaints. For comparison, infantry... I have 160 something + Fenrisian wolves. Lots of wolves :P . I have nearly 40 wolf guard, which is a little silly even for a force of that size :) Thats some serious forces out there, I salute you all with an ale ^_^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196524-largest-space-wolf-force-out-there/page/2/#findComment-2347825 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolfGeezer Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Meanwhile i´ve 17,5K SW. Close to 300 SM in PA and TDA and 30+ Vehicles. 30+ vehicles... thats a serious investment I get to 39 if we are including speeders (3) and Dreds (6) as vehicles. Also got 2 more pods to paint so at some point soon it should get to 41. At least until I get round to cutting up one of my very old badly painted mk1 rhinos to make a couple of nice looking rhino craters so should net to 40. Only things I really would like to add at some point would be a 3rd Vindi, a FW SW Dred and at some point a Mk1 Land Raider (I have 2LRCs, 1 LR, and one Redeemer - but would like an old style one for certain fluffy pre-heresy games) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196524-largest-space-wolf-force-out-there/page/2/#findComment-2348049 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vassakov Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 As of the old Codex, about 2 years ago I could comfortably do 6K. Not sure these days, highlights include: 35-40 Grey Hunters 30 Blood Claws 30+ Wolf Guard Termies, plus attendent HQ options (Erik Morkai, a Rune Priest, Wolf Priest and Counts As Grimnar) About 15 Power Armoured Wolf Guard, plus more HQ's 15 Long Fangs 6 Dreadnoughts 10 Wolf Scouts (15 if I count some on sprues) Some bikes Motor Pool: 4 Rhinos/Razors Vindie 2 Preds 3 Land Raiders (2 Crusaders and a Prometheous) 3 Pods Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196524-largest-space-wolf-force-out-there/page/2/#findComment-2348599 Share on other sites More sharing options...
