Vash113 Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 15 strong Blood Claw unit with a power weapon, flamer, attached Wolf Guard with a Power Fist and led by a pretty bog standard Wolf Priest riding around in a Land Raider. Without the Raider I add a 16th Blood Claw with a 2nd Flamer. The unit is big, puts out a ton of attacks and never lets me down. They're my army's shock troops and led by the priest they smash into stuff with abandon and kill a lot of enemies. Sometimes they survive, sometimes they don't but they always cause a lot of havoc and mayhem leaving my Grey Hunters a generally easy time mopping up and securing objectives. There's just something about nearly a score of power armored berserkers that unsettles opponents...

narf Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 the WG will wound on2+ on the charge as ragnar gives them furious charge aswell. Mine is: 8 GH, melta gun, MOTW, Drop pod, Wg in TDA with chainfist, combi plasma. Can be placed where i need them. Good against horde when DP due to 14 bolter shots, 2 combi plasma and a MG, good against heavily armoured targets due to the amount of shots, and good against vehicles due to the Melta gun, plasma shots and the WG chainfist (as this turns the unit into a monstrous creature in cc with vehicles). And of course good in combat as they have 14-21 normal attacks, 2-8 rending attacks and 2-3 chainfist attacks. really good all round troops. To the OP why not put a WP in the unit aswell, as this will let you reroll the misses?

Valerian Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 why would they be wounding on 2+??? Frost blades are 1+ str right?? The Frost Blades are +1 Strength, and Ragnar's Furious Charge grants another +1 to Strength, so everybody in that unit would be hitting at Strength 6.

Bulweih Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 For normal games, it's Grey Hunter pack "Icefist", 2 Melter, Banner, Wulfen, Powerfist in a Drop Pod. They drop behind enemy lines and always reap a bloody toll, before reinforcements arrive. For Apoc, that would be my "tank of doom": LRC Ragnar, Ulrik, all following in PA: 4 Stormshield+Thunderhammer, 12 Frostaxe+ Stormshield. They ride out hunting those big FW Deamons, primary target the huge Khorne dude. For anything else they are just overkill :P .

Kassill Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 10 Grey Hunters, in a Rhino, with a pair of Plasmaguns, a Powerfist, and a Wolf Totem. They rarely let me down. I run almost the exact same setup, but without the totem. They have yet to let me down in the two games I have played em in so far. :D But, as another poster said, my Long Fangs with Missile Launchers are FANTASTIC! I havent added a WG with launcher yet, but still, they are pretty beastly!

Fenric Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 In my last few games my strongest unit has been: Wolf Priest 10 Wolf Guard with 2 powerfists All in a Landraider Redeemer. I can make this unit so much stronger if i wish but this way I keep the points down and they still annihilate enemy infantry. Just yesterday I used it to speed around the right flank and on my second turn that unit charged into The Tau players HQ unit with Suits and all kinds of nasty stuff. I wiped that unit in one round with my powerfists and 32 attacks+Wolf Priest atacks. They got hammered hard by tau shooting next round but they had moved into cover in the consolidate move. In my next turn the ones left charged into the 3 broadsides and killing them outright with powerfists. Landraider itself torched around 3 full tau units and blew up a transport with it's multi melta. I love this unit and even though I only ran it twice it works so well for what I want it to do. Otherwise greyhunter squads>all.

Then theres other games where I forget I have them.
