Rune Priest Jbickb Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Hey guys. I have never really payed much attention to forge world. What is worth getting and fielding as a wolves player? and what forge world books are worth it? My bad if this has been asked before.

Morticon Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Heya bud- without, without, without a doubt, check out IA:2 version 2. (must be version 2, as its the most up to date). Got some INCREDIBLE options in there :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295291-forge-world-for-wolves/#findComment-3779484 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Fellblade is a Space Marine exclusive Baneblade variant. Fire Raptor is a nice flier as well, though now we have the Stormwolf... And the Contemptor Dread is damn fine for SW. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295291-forge-world-for-wolves/#findComment-3779508 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urauloth Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 IA XI: the Doom of Mymeara has some info on Bran Redmaw's great company and rules for the wolf lord himself (damn shame they never made a mini for him) albeit designed for an earlier edition. It's mostly fluff, read it if you get a chance. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295291-forge-world-for-wolves/#findComment-3779610 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantay VI Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Land Raider Achilles is rock solid, the Helios also gives you a whirlwind and 2 TL LC for a Land Raider armour Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295291-forge-world-for-wolves/#findComment-3779706 Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeletoro Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Hey, just realised that cataphräctii armour might be a good base to use for the Armour of Asvald Stormwrack. It does have a 4+ invulnerable save like Cataphractii, and is supposed to be very ancient. When was terminator armour invented? I think it was developed by Mars during the Great Crusade? The fluff says the piece dates back to the Dark Age of Technology. Which is kinda contradictory I think? Perhaps an even more bespoke suit might therefore make sense. Converted iron father perhaps? Edit: I meant to reply to a different thread. But perhaps this post belongs in this thread anyway as I am talking about FW stuff :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295291-forge-world-for-wolves/#findComment-3779718 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: I meant to reply to a different thread. But perhaps this post belongs in this thread anyway as I am talking about FW stuff Terminator Armor is an adaptation of heavy engineering and environment suits used to work in the most extreme of environments like the inside of a plasma core. These suits existed long before the onset of the Great Crusade but were cumbersome and very bulky. During the latter years of the Great Crusade a number of types of Terminator Armor suits were adapted from these environment suits by different groups, both Mechanicus and Astartes. These included the iconic Indomitus armor, the more cumbersome but better protecting Cataphractii pattern, the sophisticated Tartaros Pattern and the Gorgon pattern. It's entirely possible for a relic suit of Terminator Armor to date back, at least parts of it, to the Dark Age of Technology. If you want to use Cataphractii to represent the armor I'd suggest the Terminator Praetor, it's a great model.

skeletoro Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 My first storm wolf is almost ready for paint and my second one is en route... i'd love to get a caestus to complete the triad. But it's three times the price... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295291-forge-world-for-wolves/#findComment-3780142 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rift Blade Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Really recommend the new Adeptus Astartes book from FW. HAS the most up to date listing of vehiciles & rules that we are allowed. The only downside is it does not have the SW Contemptor in it. It is in Imperial Armour Apocalypse 2nd Ed. The other book of note is the Doom Of Mymera. As has been said, it is more of a fluff book because it only has 2 pages of actual rules for Bran Redmaw. From a fluff point, all these books are a great but a little pricey. From a rules point, the Adeptus book is the only one worth its price. For actual models, I have the Sicarian Main Battle Tank, Contemptor Dread naught & Tempest Land Speeder. The Land Speeder is nice but the Contemptor & Sicarian really good though the Contemptor may pale a little as we can now field a dread with a storm shield & axe. My 2 cents anyways.
