Grantyr Greymantle Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 I have a ton of plastic and a bit of metal in my garage but need to make room for other stuff (most of it not yet glued together). If you were in my position and had to liquidate GW assets but wanted to keep your favorite army (Space Wolves, of course), what would you keep so that you could have the most fun against the most enemies?

Atropos Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 I would keep a minimun of 3 Grey Hunter Squads (I actually take no less than 4). 2-3 Long Fang Squads. A couple of Land Speeders. Rune Priest/s. Transports, of course. (Something like 3 Rhino 3 Razor). And I like to play with a Predator from time to time, but that's personal taste. It's up to you really. If you could tell us what you've got and how your lists look like it would be easier! Maybe some TWC or Terminators in a LR.

Grantyr Greymantle Posted July 11, 2011 Author Share Posted July 11, 2011 I know this is not usually the way you would build an army, but I'm totally limited by space in which I'm going to be able to dedicate to my Wolves. I'm thinking I will rarely play in a game above 2,000 pts, probably most often somewhere between 1,500 and 2,0000. I'd like to keep what would be the most effective against the greater variety of enemies, if that makes sense. I have a bunch of models I *can* build but need to be able to keep it all (when I'm done building) in a couple of army bags (maybe 8-10 trays total) - so I guess the only limitation really is the more vehicles I have the less total units I can keep… Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233898-what-would-you-choose%E2%80%A6/#findComment-2816008 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atropos Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Most effective against the greater variety of armies... Then I'd keep Grey Hunters, 3-4 Wolf Guard for your Hunters, Long Fangs, Rune Priests, MM-HF Land Speeders (at least 2 of them), and if you're limited by space, and vechicles limit your space, I'd just keep something like 3 Rhinos for your Hunters. Vehicles are very effective for them, and they don't take so much space as Land Raiders would.

Grantyr Greymantle Posted July 11, 2011 Author Share Posted July 11, 2011 Thanks Atropos! I'll try putting together a list from your suggestions, based on what I have on hand (I think I can just about build all that) - then post it and see what you think… Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233898-what-would-you-choose%E2%80%A6/#findComment-2816071 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atropos Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 You're welcome. Razorbacks are very effective too, specially when carrying those Long Fangs, but then again, if it's a matter of space; I'd take Rhinos so I can take 10 GH squads in them (including WG).

Rune_Priest_Rhapsody Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 While this question ultimately lies in your own hands brother, if I was you I would keep all of my Terminators, two drop pods, a Landraider, and one, possibly two Long Fang packs. Alas, you and I are not one. Keep what makes you happy I say.

Elric the Silvercoat Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 what do you plan on doing with that you don't keep? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/233898-what-would-you-choose%E2%80%A6/#findComment-2817727 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Praga Ashskull Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 if you have razorback's and they are not yet assembled, you can build them in such a way that you can use it as a rhino or razorback. this saves space and you gives you flexibility. how much space do you have at your disposal? you can get a lot of figurines in a plain curver box, separating the layers of models with sound isolation foam (that is how i store my unused painted models in my attic).

Spacefrisian Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Some ideas. Lord, battleleader, Runepriest, Wolfpriest try having different options for them available (first 2, 1 in tda and 1 in pa) 10 wolfguard again different options available (5 PA and 5 tda) 1 or 2 Dreads again multiple options available 5 sw Scouts, Meltagun 4 Squads of 10 man, all equiped with boltpistol ccw, 1 guy with special ranged and 1 with special cc weapon (keep switch options available) Have 5 spare models just in case, with this you can use youre Greyhunters for bloodclaws when you want and with the 5 spare you can make a 15 men strong unit. 5 Rhino with options to reform into Razorback, if you have it also keep a Whirlwind top available. 2 Landspeeders, different options as mentioned before. Couple of Fenrisian wolves 10 or so, a unit and wargear option they should be in. Predator with different options available. Longfang unit of 6, mulitple options. Vindicator Landraider with different options. This might be more or less than 2000 points but you can switch around with alot of wargear, just make sure you have enough magnets to make it.
