Vor Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 I've decided to ditch my Thunderhawk and increase my normal wolves with the cash raised. While I do need more Grey Hunters (I have around 100 at the moment - but I play Apoc alot, lost 70 out of 130 in one turn on Saturday (was proxying some BT as wolves)) I've been considering using the cash to raise a pure Thunderwolf army. Has anyone tried such an army? I've had great success, for the most part, with a single Thunderwolf Wolf Lord and 5 Thunderwolves, and this army would mostly be for fun and for Apoc games. Not something that's meant to be amazingly competitive. The rough list I've drawn up is based around Canis, 3 Wolf Lords, 15 Thunderwolves in three packs, armed with either Thunderhammers or Frost Bades and all of them with Stormshields and 30 odd Fenrisian Wolves to act as troops. The idea came from The Charge of the Rohirrim in Return of the King. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/253600-pure-thunderwolf-army/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
CainTheHunter Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 For pure fun in Apoc You could run 60 Mark of Wulfen Lone Wolves as well, sort of 13th Company :) They will be quite annoying, let me assure You!

Jonny Wolf Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Yes, I've ran an army like this. It's fun. But, to be quite honest, it's gets a little boring (vis a vis Deathwing).

Vor Posted June 11, 2012 Author Share Posted June 11, 2012 Thunderhawk sold (for a lot more than I expected!) so I've purchased what I need to create the list. Should be here soon. Will be mainly for Apoc and the odd fun game. I'm already planning a 40k-esque Charge of the Rohirrim game, with an allied army defending a fortress and a hoard attacking the walls.
