Rune Priest Jbickb Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I love Ragnars rules (point cost aside) and his fluff and the bulk of my collection is Ragnars gc (a little Logan grimnar in there too he us the boss after all). But man do I wish for a better model for him. I may convert one one day but I hope he is released when we get a new dex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeletoro Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I think Ragnar plus Arjac together in a pack (wg or gh) would make for a rather scary death star unit. Arjac could take challenges for Rags where necessary, though sometimes Ragnar might prefer to issue them (where all enemy characters are in it 4 or less and lack 2+ saves). Warrior born is a tad better in 7th, though no consolidation into close combat makes it hard to get momentum up. Ragnar's buffs are actually pretty amazing though. Arguably, however, he's overcosted. I agree that he should have 2+/4++, and also think he should have initiative 6. Frostfang should at the very least be rending, perhaps even ap2. With all those improvements, his price tag would be well worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantay VI Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Yeah, if they don't do a resculpt on Ragnar, I plan to make my own, using Korsarro Khan as the basis of the model. Isn't it in the rules that Arjac must issue and receive challenges to enemy characters? That would mean te only way to get Ragnar into a challenge would be in the second round of combat with a heroic intervention? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeletoro Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Oh, forgot that. Not a big problem, though. I think normally you'd want Arjac to be challenging Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantay VI Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I just like the thought of overwatching with his boomerang hammer :) before a challenge is made. But Arjac is the one to take challenges, then you see Ragnar go nuts at the foot troops and if you get a second round of cambat watch him finish them off almost single-handed with saga of the warrior born :) If the hammer hits on a 6 in overwatch, is it a precision shot and you get to choose who takes the strength 10 hit??

skeletoro Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Sadly, characters don't automatically get precision shots anymore! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Priest Jbickb Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 And precision shot does not apply to snap shots (ie overwatch) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantay VI Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Darn! I must start getting more familiar with the rules. This is what happens when you only get about 3 games a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrogzc Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 My Wolf Lord. Always run him with Saga of the Bear, Runic Armour and Wolftooth necklace and escorted by his 3 thunderwolves friend with two shields and a power fist. Expensive unit. I use them in a droppod army with real success. I launch 2 pods in the thick of the battle, where in my 2º turn the "dogs" will hit. Mid and backfield filled with more grey hunters in rhino/razorback and long fangs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cpt_Reaper Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Here we have some old pics of my Wolf Lord, Thorgrimm In his Terminator armor, on his bike, and in his power armor.

mactire Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Wolf Lord Erik Morkai of Tra, Great Company of the Rout. Always loved the Tyberos figure so decided to wolf it up a bit. To get the "twin" feeling between this and the Runepriest I used the heads from the SM Librarian and this one from the new Sternguard set, as they are quiet similar with the stare, tidy beard and overall shape and they also look quite severe which suits with Morkai's fluff. Anyway hope ye enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatSmasher Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Here are my Lords. I mixed a few kits together including one of the special order web sergeants, and a space marine captain sprue. I opted to have the claws match at the traditional marine length to make it unique From behind Only the double claw has seen the table since I almost always put my lord on a thunderwolf.

Wulfebane Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Been gone a while, but Valerian reached out to pull me out of the depths of the Fang, so I felt obliged to post something. Wolf Lord Thane Brazenclaw the Redeye. One of the more boastful of the Wolf Lords in recent milennia, Thane was a clan leader and accomplished raider among the islands of Fenris before becoming one of the Chosen Sky warriors. His braggart nature is embellished by the many trophies and ostentatious ornamentation that he always carries with him into battle.. so as to remember the life and grandeur he once had below the cliffs of Asaheim. And my counts-as Ragnar conversion... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrogzc Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 aaaah!! Sweet models!!! @wulfebane, where is the right shoulder pad of the terminator lord from? The conversion of Ragnar is great! Is he based in Gabriel Seth, isn't it? Have you modeled the fur pelt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaplainmikey Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Here's mine, ever so slightly converted from the Krom model. Doubt he'll see much play but he can stand in 'till I paint my TWC Lord. :) ^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he based in Gabriel Seth, isn't it? Have you modeled the fur pelt? Tda left arm is converted from the tda chaplain. Seth was used for Ragnar and about 70% of the model is greenstuff, including the cloak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulweih Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Hyá brothers, as promised before here are some pics of my Lords named and to be named, and welcome back Wulfebane your absence was noted.

KiltedMarine Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Wow. Just... Wow. I feel utterly inadequate, now, thanks. Max_Dammit, R_P_R, and Dantay (especially Dantay, no offense to the rest of y'all), I'm a little afraid of looking like a complete piker posting this, but here goes: Lleu Swifthand, of Ceathu Cuideachta (Fourth Company) of the Cwn Annwn, wielding the Beltaine Blade that gives the Company its nickname. I used the 13th company Rune Priest model, swapped his force axe out for the old Terminator Captain sword, and added just a bit of hair to the top of his head to make him look a bit less aged. In game, I run him with Rune Armour, WtN, Frost Blade, Plasma Pistol, and SotB. What unit I attach him to varies, but a lot of the time he runs with the Wolf-Brodyr (the name the Hounds of Arawn give to Blood Claws). EDIT: Wow. Sorry for the huge photo (especially since it so amazingly captures all the flaws in my paint job). Any tips on how to make that a bit less... ginormous?

Rift Blade Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Don't knock yourself Kiltedmarine. That's probably better then mine. My pictures are usually to small to see it is all. WHen I figure out how to do it again.LOL!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konnavaer Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 My wolf lord Harald Redmane leading his brothers into battle, look for him adding to his saga where the fighting is bloodiest and the fiercest enemies of the Rout can be found... http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a513/cfinch88/IMG_1904_zps4f7291d9.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiltedMarine Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Wulfebane, that is absolutely stunning work. ::tips hat:: It's a little thing, but I REALLY get a kick out of the way your SShield/FB lord is holding his sword. Great pose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
