Lord Ragnarok Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I like most of the new stuff , I like the new dreadnaughts as well . Always liked them but the new kit is great . only thing i am not sure about is the chariot for logan grimnar . it will only be a week before someone does a santa clause conversion on him then we will have xmass themed spacwolves popping up every where . the horror :( bah! Who cares. Like I said before. I'll stick him on there carrying a bag of fresh reaped heretic and xenos heads.

Commander_Moustache Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 When ever I hear someone say "the wolf chariot is dumb" I always remember that Thor has a flying chariot pulled by goats Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294712-new-codex-new-stuff-what-are-your-thoughts/page/3/#findComment-3770985 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rift Blade Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Well, from everything I'm hearing from all of fine brothers & sisters here at the B&C, I'm overall quite happy with our new dex. I'm hoping to have mine this afternoon. IP's being IC's now really is nice(seeing as I converted one riding a TW), TW being cheaper & we now not only have access to flakk missiles(expensive but we do) as well as a flyer & a pretty damn good one at that. Claws getting cheaper might actually get me to look at them & the new Dread kits are amazing. Lots of conversion ideas going through my head for several different models. And it does not sound like I'll have to fix/set aside to many models that are no longer legal. Sur esome things got nerfed or left out but we can't have everything. THanks to everyone who posted stuff from the new dex.

Heru Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 When ever I hear someone say "the wolf chariot is dumb" I always remember that Thor has a flying chariot pulled by goatsThor is a God whose principle worship was during medieval times, when the best tech we had a was chariots. There is a big difference when we are taking about 40k, where the best tech we have is tanks and space ships. There is playing to a theme, and then there is smacking your audience over the head with it repeatedly. DRUNK WEREWOLF VIKINGS IN SPACE!!!!! If they had really wanted to have the chariot, a better execution than a pair of tiny wolves (who are really only as strong & tough as regular Space Marines ruleswise) would have been to have some other Fenrisian non-wolf beasts pulling it. I mean you hear about all the awesome monsters lurking on Fenris, but we only ever see the "not"-wolves.

Bulldogging Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Overall it's ok. SW are going to be popular due to Drop Pods in FA slots though. Most of the new things are so close to being awesome, and then left hanging..hey look new shinies!

Nova_chron Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 If I do the chariot I will make a fenrisian ice bear as the replacement to the wolves Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294712-new-codex-new-stuff-what-are-your-thoughts/page/3/#findComment-3771600 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aspecti Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I've been thinking about getting a small force of Space Wolves as allies for a while so it's nice to hear the new Codex doesn't suck, but why is it a big deal having Drop Pods in FA slots?

If they're not dedicated transports, anyone can ride in them... Like Scions, hammernators, or centurions.

Hrolf the Cunning Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I quite like the look of the sword relic, frostsword with rending and helfrost for a fair price... Most sad about loss of giving EW to characters and Wulfen MIA. Otherwise pretty sweet deal all round. Glad they buffed Ulric, seemed pretty weedy last codex for a chap with such an epic saga.

Nova_chron Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I feel this book is very strong I am working on sorting out what relics I will be taking for my HQs I have been playing with building a wolf priest to be like the guy in battle for the fang with the sword and maybe armor of Russ but otherwise leave him alone after that... tho I would really love to play around with armor of Russ on a rune priest.
