Muntatron Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Greetings brothers! After skulking around on the forums for a while, reading, sponging up all the info I can, I've noticed something. There doesn't appear to be a tactica purely for wolves on here. I was thinking maybe all the seasoned vets here at the fang could bestow their knowledge of battlefield tactics upon all us whelps, gracing us with both tales of great victories and bitter loss. Even if it was broken down even further for each unit and people (or should I say wolves) can explain in detail what units work for them with what loadout and why? This is just an idea, as I'm slowly but surely building my way towards a force I believe will do ok, but (being as green as Arez) don't really know how to run them as I've never played any space marine chapter before. Thank you sons of Russ! I look forward to the tome of knowledge that is surely to become of this. P.S. If there is already a fully written tactica, link me up scotty! But also, having a mixed opinion on here would be awesome Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/245940-space-wolves-tactica/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
hendrik Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 decoy had started the plans for a complete tactica, however after the HQ choices that ended, it has a lot to do with it being written by a lot of members and as such results in a great lot of different opinions. darkseer has an exquisite blog however in which he discussed his tactics Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/245940-space-wolves-tactica/#findComment-2975078 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forté Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Problem with a SW tactica is that what works for one is frowned upon by another. GH vs BC for example. Some say that Claws are a waste of time yet others do really well. Find what works for you by using proxies but also take a good look over the 'army list' sub forum too.

SgtTelion Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Hey there! Although it all comes down to opinion, I'm a big fan of the tactica on this site : http://space-wolves-grey.blogspot.com/ It's all very sensible indeed, and has a section on EVRY unit in the codex, special characters included. Enjoy! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/245940-space-wolves-tactica/#findComment-2975156 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muntatron Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 I see... Well there goes that idea haha. That blog looks interesting, will have to give it a look after work. Thanks anyway brothers, until I get a better idea on how to run my wolves instead of just reading on this forum I'll be sure to pipe up in a classic puppy style and ask stupid questions :) For Russ and the Allfather!

Khine Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Something i found that worked well for me is go and watch videos on how wolves hunt, read books on the way they hunt. I know, it is horribly cliche to do this but i've gotten some of the best tactics from this. Ie .. a decent way to use Bloodclaws. Have them sit in cover, shadowing your GHs that are patrolling the mid field. Once the GH are engaged in CC, run the BCs up with a Wolf Priest and a WG. Even if your only bringing them up 8 man plus the WG and WP .. your looking at 39 re-rollable attacks. If your extremely lucky, your GHs will have been in cover which mean offensive grenades bonus for the BCs =] Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/245940-space-wolves-tactica/#findComment-2975594 Share on other sites More sharing options...
