Gree Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 So I've been looking at various allies for my main Marine force. I use Imperial Fist Chapter Tactics and I tend to play with tanks and heavy weapons. Essentially I've been looking for a divination-buffing machine for my Devastator Squads to enhance their effectiveness. I have used Tigurius and an allied detachment of Ultramarines in the past to get that Divination, and I've had good success with Tigurius, but lately I've been looking to other allied Marine Chapters for other options for my army. My questions are, aside from Divination, what can the Space Wolf book offer me in terms of units and options? I have not had much experience with the new Codex, but I'm familiar enough with the old one to get the basic gist of how they operate. So I suppose I might as well ask the Space Wolf players. I typically run the following in a 2000 point list. -Captain or Lysander leading Hammernators in a Crusader -Drop podding 5-man Sternguard with meltaguns to pop tanks. -A pair of Tactical Squads mounted in Rhinos -Devastator Squad behind Aegis Defense Line, kitted with lascannons or missile launchers -Vindicator with siege shield I have been considering a Rune Priest with Level 2 to join my devastators and a unit of Grey Hunters in a drop pod. Is there any other suggestions that people might offer me?

Donkalleone Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 In all honesty i cant find a reason for your force to take SW as Allies. You would have to invest heavely in TWC (our "best" Unit) to make them work. Other than that there is Bjorn and Murderfang in DP that are a Strong Addon to your Army. And ofc the Stormwolf which i find is the best Flyer (Attackwise) the SM have. For a SW Change i would take Arjacs Shieldbrothers instead of Lysander. I think you the best Option is to take Blood Angels Allies. Libarien is same as RP and you get a cheap Tactical Squad and can make your Vindicator fast which is a huge buff.
