Venerable Brother Pelinore Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Greetings Brothers of the Rout, Question: Currently building more Space Wolves for my army, and coming across a bit of an issue. I'm getting rather sick of chainswords. Now, don't get me wrong, I love the Chainsword as much as any other servant of the Imperium. However, after 20+ models equipped with chainswords, I'm beginning to look at alternatives. Mainly, I'm looking towards iron looking weapons. The simple axe, a long knife, that sort of thing, that I can use as a viable CCW. I remember an old Space Wolves sprue had what I'm looking for once upon a time, but I can't remember which, nor do I have any remaining here. Is there an alternative among the rest of the GW range, or elsewhere? Or am I doing some conversion work on power axes? - VBP.

Sarapham Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Marauder bitz (both on foot and horsemen) from the GW fantasy range probably have the best of what you are looking for. They are pretty much armed with what a native fenrisian would be armed with, plus you get a few real awesome heads.

Union.Jack Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 I've been using the Chaos warriors from the fantasy range to good effect. You can use all the weapons aswell as the wolf pelted torso sections.

I know you said you were over chainswords, but I am not sure if you just meant the Wolf ones?..... Regular Imperial ones, Chaos and Berzerker ones - with the scum removed and even Chain Axes are all fun weapons.
