Lost Company! biggrin.png I use and play Mav's army. A warband of The Great Wolf, Bjorn the Fell-Handed. Who's splinter fleet was swallowed up by a warp storm and forgotten during the first great hunt. Returned recently only to find themselves in a new time and a Bjorn entombed. They patrol the borders of the wolf kingdom, and stay true to the old habits and customs of the Rout. Patiently waiting until their Great Wolf is awakened to once again fight by his side.

I use Bjorn Stormwolfs symbol, from back when his name was merely a blurb in the codex....

Im not a huge fan of the new 'bigger, louder, boomier' Wolf Lord hes been ascribed as, but Ive kept it, because its mine by the allfathers grace damn it. I only own one vindicator, and Im not likely to ever want a second for that matter. But four whirlwinds are sitting near my packs, ready to serve up a heaping dose of napalm to the all fathers foes.

 

So I voted Bjorn and "other".

I have a 'historic' company as in its not a current great company. It uses the icon used by ragnars great company as when i first started collecting there WAS only ragnars company! Lol!

 

My lord has recently been rechristened: Lokar Darkwolf, Jarl of 8th

for me its always been Ragners great company, ever since the model first hit the shelves way back in 2nd edition, what a handsome fellow he was and much taller than the genric marines of the day, add to that the Njal and ulric models of that era.

Voted for Engir Krakendoom. Much of my Space Wolves will be painted with a darker skin tone to reflect their hailing from the southern isles of Fenris. I usually favor armored units and this tactical mindset is in keeping with Engir's Great Company. I don't field Wolf Lords out of respect for our Jarl. 

 

 Though since the new rules rolled out and Power Lances are in I might pick up the Vulken He'stan figure and convert it into Engir.

What I want to know is how people actually decide on a great company, because I can't and it's bugging the life out of me. There are a couple I really like he fluff for, a few I love the symbols for, and they don't entirely line up. The temptation to ditch the "current" timeline and invent my own "historical" (and presumably now dead in a suitably heroic manner) wolf lord is very strong as well. Tough call, all considered.

When you're stuck without a decision, having a hard time to decide which is best and why... it's simply easier to just call yours a LOST COMPANY. You can have a play style of one Lord, yet have the color/icon of another.

Personally i'm somewhat limited to Ragnar's company, I'm not a fan of decals, and with limited freehand skill, all my models have sculpted shoulder pads, so i'm constanly buying bits of ragnars icon for terminators and power armor.  I attempted for a short time to cast my own off of the harold pad from the thunderwolf lord, however the star points detereorate quickly in the mold.  So for the time being.. Ragnar's Company continues to grow...

 

Perhaps one day GW or FW will give us Great Company Shoulder pads and Icon bits....

for Harald Deathwolf pads - FWs SW upgrade set has two per pack :) I picked up a set to make my Grimnar and Arjac models.
