Bloodmange Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Ok I just finished my Rhinos "Fury" and "Zeal" Im going to start on a Land Raider but I can't choose what to name it. Can you guys think of a quality that a space wolf has that would fit well for a name of a Land Raider?

The problem with that is I want to name all my vehicles after the qualities of the Space Wolves them selves. Any given Space Wolf shows zeal, he strkies down his enemy with fury unto an avalanche Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/206452-names-for-vehicles/#findComment-2462939 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Trivia Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Perhaps try and delve into Swedish or Danish words for zeal and stuff like that. I dunno, usually worked for me, and sometimes can result in a neat sounding name for a vehicle.

Zynk Kaladin Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Kalmah. It could be translated as "to the death". I could be completely wrong on this though, but it sounds cool and so does their music :D Kalmah (metal band) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/206452-names-for-vehicles/#findComment-2462962 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodmange Posted July 15, 2010 Author Share Posted July 15, 2010 Once I come to a name I actually translate it into the Eldar Futhark then paint the name in runes on the scrolling provided in the kit.

spjaco Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 I would recommend these for names: From SPACEWOLVES: A COMPREHENSIVE HISTORY from this sites very own Librarium: The names of the Wolves of Fenris: Torvald the Far-Sighted -Torvald is the Wolf whose eyes see all and miss nothing. This Wolf's teachings instruct young Space Wolves to use their eyes and heads before their blades, for sometimes it is in observation and looking ahead that victory is achieved. Freki and Geri the Twin Wolves -Freki and Geri were the Wolf companions of Leman Russ. These Wolves represent what can be achieved through brotherhood and teamwork, for the strength of a pack is greater than the sum of its parts and together can defeat foes no single Wolf would ever be able to tackle. Haegr the Mountain Wolf -Haegr the Mountan teaches the Wolves to endure the harshest of elements without complaint for it is those very same things that forged the Space Wolves into the warriors they are. Haegr endures all and when faced with the worst of environments it is to Haegr that the Space Wolves look to for example. Thengir the Wolf King -Thengir represents Fenris and the Fang, the domain of the Space Wolves, the crowning jewel of the Sons of Russ as it towers over the harsh yet majestic domains of Fenris. The Stalker Between Stars -This Wolf was the totem of Leman Russ and is still the icon born by every Great Wolf. The Stalker Between the Stars teaches the Sons of Russ that wherever they walk no matter how distant they bring the glory of Fenris with them. Ranek, the Hidden Wolf -Ranek is the Wolf who stalks the shadows, and teaches the young Wolves the virtues of stealth and hunting, that the fang from the dark is sometimes doubly as wounding as any other. Lokyar, The Lone Wolf -The Lone Wolf is the aspect of all Wolf Scouts, this wolf teaches that sometimes Wolves must fight and live alone. The Iron Wolf -The Iron Wolf is the spirit of the Forge and the Iron Priests, this wolf teaches the Sons of Russ the value of craftsmanship and the forge. Lakkan, the Runed Wolf -Lakkan is the totem of the Rune Priests and teaches the mysteries of Runes to those who seek them. The Fire Wolf -The Fire Wolf heralds the coming of the Season of Fire, when the snows melt and the lands rage, islands sink and new ones rise, it is the coming of the Fire Wolf that heralds either glory or doom to the people of Fenris. Morkai -Morkai is the twin-headed guardian of the Fenresian underworld. The Wolf of the Red Moon -The Wolf of the Red Moon is a terrible stalker of the seven hells of Fenris, a skeletal apparition that claims the bodies of the fallen unworthy of entrance into the halls of Morkai. The Bloodied Hunter -The Bloodied Hunter is the wolf of the hunt, a feral killer that rejoices in nothing greater than the tracking and killing of prey beneath a full moon. The Sea Wolf -The Sea Wolf is a beast of the deadly Fenresian oceans, the totem of all those who sail and do battle on the waves. The Sun Wolf -The Sun Wolf is the Fenresian Wolf who makes his lair in the heart of Fenris' sun and arises each day to shine his harsh light on the world. The Fire Breather -The Fire Breather is a wolf who dwells in one of the largest volcanoes on Fenris and who spews his wrath into the heavens when angered. The Blackmane -The Blackmane is the deadliest of all Fenresian Wolves. The Thunderwolf -The Thunderwolf exemplifies strength and raw power over subtlety or guile. The Wulfen -The Wulfen is the cursed 13th Wolf of Fenresian lore. Bestial in nature it is this Wolf that the Space Wolves must ever guard themselves against less their feral natures overcome them and lead them into madness.
