Coverfire Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 In the known history of the Great battles for humanity, who have Space Wolves mostly fought alongside? I know that during the Heresy that fought alongside the White Scars and Dark Angels but that is about the extent of my knowledge, have ever fought beside second founding chapters like Crimson Fists or the Xenos races like Eldar? or are they on the other side of the galaxy?

Coverfire Posted February 8, 2011 Author Share Posted February 8, 2011 The Wolves fight alongside my Night Angels, though it isn't cannon... ...yet :cuss  That was kind of where I was going with this thread. I was wondering what battles we have fought alongside other chapters so I could make an allied force themed army.

dragon950 Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Your going back 10k years of history to find which battles the wolves have fought in, I'm sure they fought with every founding chapters and many sucessor chapters. I know that the wolves have more of a liking to the basic imperial guard than many other chapters do. Â I would just pick a recent conflict like Armegddon or 13th black crusade and see what chapters were invloved in those. Or make something up becuase theres not that much fluff to cover 10k years.

MaveriK Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 There was also a battle along side the Raven Guard, and there was a nice saga written about our wolves witnessing the wergeld for the first time. I forget which battle it was, and the name of the saga. But it was cool.. maybe someone with a better memory can refresh my memory.

Lord Ragnarok Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Well we know we fought with the Flesh Tearers...but that ended badly. :D how badly did they try to eat a space wolf or 3 and thus cause us to turn on them or some thing ?? Â it's in our codex on page 19 "Honours End" We team up with the Angels Vindicant and Flesh Tearers to defeat a chaos marine force. After they are defeated the Flesh Tearers start ripping up the local populace stating the are only removing any of the tainted folks. We immediately attack the Flesh Tearers.

Lord Ragnarok Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 OR, perhaps there is a mutual respect for our respective curses and how we suffer them. Similar to the story of the Weregeld with the Ravenguard.

Brother Nathan Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 true. its one of them issues that could go either way. though at least the ba thing isnt physical like the thousand sons one, so i could see them taking a better view. but i really dont know. i would love to see a really tough chaos strong hold hit by a combined force of death co and 13th co...yea no survivors... :huh: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/221874-allies-of-our-great-chapter/#findComment-2651687 Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfpack Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Logan led the (for the most part) imperial forces in the first war (only because the planetary governor was a worm)...as for the other two we did have our fingers in the pie as well...but not on as grand a scale...we have fought along side cadians and mordians as well as several other sm chaps if not all at one point or another...but we prefer to keep to or own..to discourage having to shoot some dumbass in the head...

Angels of redemption, Angels of vigilance, Angels porphyr?, black dragons, black templars, blood angels, celebrants, celestial lions,exorcists, fleshtearers, iron champions, marines malovelent, mortifactors, omega marines, raptors, relicators. salamanders, sliver skulls, sons of guilliman, storm giants, storm lords, white scars. do you want guard etc?

Adarul Greystalker Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 We know that the Space Wolves sometimes get along with the Inquisition and sometimes don't. We have an alliance with the Deathwatch and have worked closely with inquisitors in the past, allowing them to visit Fenris on several occasions (this right is not afforded lightly to anyone outside the chapter). On the other hand, there are reports of Inquisition expeditions demanding access to the Fenris system and being refused and threatened in return. Our chapter's relations with the Inquisition probably varies from inquisitor to inquisitor and wolf lord to wolf lord. Â Of course, the Space Wolves are also allied with the Adeptus Mechanicus, as all loyal Space Marine chapters are, and the Navis Nobilitae (specifically House Bellisarius). These are some of our most important alliances, since they allow us to "stalk between the stars" as it were and ensure that we are equipped for war. The forges and armories of the Fang are extensive, but our chapter does not operate completely dependently of forge worlds, especially when it comes to maintenance of our fleet. Â Some sources suggest that our chapter exerts some level of control over worlds in the vicinity of the Fenris system. Clearly we do not have an empire such as Ultramar, but in the Ragnar series it was made clear that the Space Wolves had sworn oaths to defend the people of many worlds and that those people revered the Space Wolves in return, even keeping safe some of our chapter's relics. It seems likely to me that these worlds' governors have also sworn oaths to the Great Wolf and might join the chapter in battle from time to time if their local guard regiments are strong enough.

Wysten Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Indeed, the way that I see it is that encounters with Space Marine Chapters is so infrequent that often their relative exposure is limited. They know about the most famous and more local chapters and often, more often then not, aid the chapter. All space marine chapters, with exception of Flesh Teariers and Renigades are allies unless proven otherwise. Â I imagine from the Codex that the Space wolves have a lot of influence in their area, while they don't command, they can definately inspire the local planets into giving aid when needed, and aiding when needed. People forget that the Space Wolves will probably see much more allied Imperial Guardsmen in a day of fighting then they are to see allied Space Marines in a typical lifetime in all but the most exceptional examples. With a huge number of worlds willing to support the space wolves, we can see why shifting us would be too difficult to consider a worthwhile venture. Infact, often I think of the Fang as a short of trading post sometimes, the huge space ports being used for trading supplies during more pieceful times, be it engineers from the techpriests, troops lend for the few time the Fang is expecting a direct battle, to hold limited amounts of navy patrols or to simply obtain the food required for daily life. Though it is little more then imagination, I like to think that the Space Wolves immense ports are used for more then just their personal shipping. Â Inquistation is passable, we don't tend lightly to uninvited guests, but when they are invited they are our best friends. Nuff said really, invites only, not invited? Get off our system.

SimmWeasel Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Only my opinion and it may be wrong - but im sure ive read someplace that the Space Wolves are the only chapter to be involved in all the great wars inc all Armageddons and Crusades. Plus as someone else commented that we are in with house belasarius which im sure the blood angels are too so if i was to ally up i would go wolves and angels and do a bit of fluff to go with belasarius getting attacked both chapters coming to there aide(giving you imperial to add too) just me though......

Ulriks Minion Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I read in a space wolves novel that the Space wolves were in dept with the Inquisition and helped them investigate a chaos tainting or something rather my memory is quite fuzzy, for that one occasion they were let onto Fenris.

Niiai Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Considering that they have been around for as long as they have I am not supriced they have fought besides many things. Â The 13th fought besides eldar (uthel ve?) in the campain setting I think. Also you have armagedon. I would be surpiced if they where not on medusa as well.
