New wave planned purchases?

TWC.

 

I am looking at TWL, but I am too afraid to order it from online seller - I'd better have one in our local shop, where at least I can see what I am buying. I have little faith in failcast and my only failcast so far has been a box of treekin for which I kinda did not care - if they are warped a bit, so even the better - no one will see the difference anyway.

Since I'm new I'm only looking at a box of Fenrisian wolves for my HQs/Lone Wolves and maybe a Cyberwolf for fun.

.....

Ok definitely a Cyberwolf, I've had this name for almost ten years and that just demands I get one!

I want Bjorn but hes Fail/recast so I doubt he looks any different at all, gonna see if the local shop has an old one since they usually mark down replaced product.

Really not sure what to do with the 6 TW I have converted out of the Canis model. Have spent a lot of time and money on them but they won't match the news wolves if I get any. Have even got a Custom Battle foam try for them! Might try and sell them on ebay.

 

Regardless I will be getting 1x Fen Wolves 1x GH Standard

WL on TWC

TWC x2

Banner bearer x1

Fenrisian wolves x2

Arjac

OUCH... just looking at the Advance Orders on the Canadian GW site, and my total comes to $300.00 and that's without taxes! is everyone here going to buy it all at once or buy little by little? or just only the essentials first? LOL

So what do you intend on picking up?

 

I am worried about the wolf lord on TWC in Finecast, but he has my exact loadout (ss/fb) and I do like him. Despite owning Mythicast, I am very pleased with the new models and will be replacing all my TWC. I really like the standard bearer but not the idea of copy cat banner bearers so only one. I am also really liking the new fen wolves and cyberwolf. So all in all,

Banner bearer x1

Fenrisian wolves x2

Cyber wolves x2

 

After reviewing the 360 view on the GW website I need to revise my list,

 

WL on TWC

TWC x3

Fenrisan wolves x2

 

The WL is awesome. The enlarged mount over the others really sealed it for me so he will be able to stand-out even more among the others. Can't stand the cyberwolves or the banner bearers now.

Based on how often GW puts their prices up, I'm ordering now and letting them sit around, rather than waiting 6 months tll I finish 2 more packs of GH and paying 15% more ;)

I'm thinking of getting...

a box of thunder wolf cavalry

The new lord

2x boxes of little puppies.

 

That way with the thunder wolves and fenerisian wolves I have already converted I can field an all lupine 1500 army >:).

I had promised myself that my Space Wolves were finally complete, at least until something new was released. I think initially I'll stick with a box of Fen Wolves, so that I can make pair each for the wargear option for Ragnar and for a Lone Wolf. If it looks like I can easily swap out Arjak's left arm for a plastic Chain Fist, then I would seriously consider getting him just to make into a better Lone Wolf. I'll wait until the release of 6th Ed to make an assessment of how that'll effect game play before buying TWC, if I ever do.

Valerian

 

I have heard so much about the possible ramifications of 6th edition- One thing Valerian to take into account, just having fun with the units we can use. I am not a Loganwing player by any stretch, but I took the time to save up enough cash to field one for git and shiggles as I cannot just play my TWC list all the time. While I still plan on trying to be competitive, I want to open my army up more to campaigns and escaltion leagues with insane/funnybuilds that I have the models to field for fun.

 

Just a thought when you think about buying some TWC.

***i moved this from the other thread; did not see this earlier ***

 

just got one tax return check back today, then spend $260 on codex, cainus, 2 boxes of wolves, 2 boxes of TWC and a mounted lord..... all will be in next saturday! these are the first models i'll be getting for this army.

 

 

 

as for the finecast conversation, the only other finecast i have is Golgfag for my Ogre Kingdoms. it does just feel wrong.... was a pain to put together and feels like it won't stay. it has.... but it just feels like it won't. i'll compare how the TWC feel in comparison to the mounted lord and if i'll continue buying mounted lord models or just start converting HQs from TWC.

Brother Ramses,

 

I would completely agree with that, if I played more often than I do. However, since I only very rarely get a game in these days, I can't really justify springing for a unit of TWC now. Especially, since I've got way more units than I ever get to play with already; even now the biggest challenge to list creation for me is figuring out what not to bring. That's while I'll wait for 6th Edition - if I do decide to add a unit to my already considerable Space Wolves army, then I damn sure want to ensure that it is going to be a good fit for at least the next several years, rather than just the next several months. For certain, though, if I got to play more often, then I would have tried them long ago, but I don't regret one bit having waited.

 

Best regards,
