Theduke08 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Its been a while since ive posted/worked on my Space wolves. Ive decided to start a new company and I've really enjoyed Ragnars backstory so I'm going to go with him. To start out I finished my first test model and choose to do a lone wolf in terminator armor with a thunder hammer and storm shield... Hope you like him Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318571-the-blackmanes-4-20-blood-claws/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximus-92 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Welcome mate. Love the basing, and the battle damage lols great too! Will you be following black manes army type (drop pods galore) or will you be taking whatever takes your fancy?

Theduke08 Posted January 27, 2016 Author Share Posted January 27, 2016 Thanks for the kind words everyone, the base was actually a happy accident. I was going to make marble bases and after finishing one it just didnt look right for a wolf. So I just pulled a piece of bark from the oak tree in my yard. Ive made snow bases before but i decided to try out army painters Snow Flock and it works pretty well. Im debating a drop pod army or just running whatever i feel like... Id love to put Ragnar in a crusader full of bloodclaws and watch the slaughter. I might run some iron priests on thunderwolves with cyberwolves... still pretty up in the air right now. I ordered 3 sets of tac marines from BaC that im going to use and they should be here on thursday.

Theduke08 Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 My Ragnar conversion... pretty standard, used most of Krom Dragongaze and the bits from the space wolves upgrade spures... I'm pretty happy how it turned out, I decided to give him blonde hair opposed to the typical black hair he is usually depicted with.

Theduke08 Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 Bar some cool formations with the upcoming release im planning on running a three pod list. 2 with grey hunters and 1 with a dread of some kind. Im planning on running Ragnar in a landraider with a large squad of bloodclaws. Besides that im going to pepper in some TWC or some Iron priests. Most likely ill having some long fangs, maybe some wolfen if I can work them in. Not the most competitive options out there but should be fun.

Theduke08 Posted February 9, 2016 Author Share Posted February 9, 2016 Ive seen all of the formations and if im being honest I dont really see one that is going to fit my play style so im probably going to just stick to a CAD. going to look something like this... Ragnar... really not sure if im going to use him... not really sure where i would put him. Grey hunters, 2x plasma gun and power axe, pod Grey hunters, 2x plasma gun and power axe, pod Either going to run a unit of wolf guard terminators in a pod with some combis or a dread. Still not sure. Thats really about as far as ive gotten...

You could add some wulfen onto this list and it would work well, maybe add a banner on the GH sq and use the pods as a screen to run behind Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318571-the-blackmanes-4-20-blood-claws/#findComment-4301460 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theduke08 Posted February 10, 2016 Author Share Posted February 10, 2016 Trying to put together a good loadout for my long fangs and im thinking about running 3 ml and 2 lascannons. Not sure how else i would run them. Is it worth it to get flakk missiles or is it just too expensive?

CatSmasher Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I tend to only include 1 different weapon profile, and lately I've been have some sucess paying for the terminator upgrade for the leader. It really helps them tank Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318571-the-blackmanes-4-20-blood-claws/#findComment-4301912 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Priest Jbickb Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I used to run the 3 missiles 2 Las cannons build with the old Dex and I loved it. Now it's a touch pricy for me especially with the missiles but the new formations will likely bring them back on line for me. As for flak missiles, how often do you face flyers? It's expensive but if your meta is flyer heavy it's not too bad Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/318571-the-blackmanes-4-20-blood-claws/#findComment-4302138 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraithwing Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Finished my first old man... Long fang ancient This is almost exactly the pose I was going for with my Long Fang Ancient. Where's the bionic arm from? Trying to put together a good loadout for my long fangs and im thinking about running 3 ml and 2 lascannons. Not sure how else i would run them. Is it worth it to get flakk missiles or is it just too expensive?You only really want to have one different weapon, due to split fire only affecting one weapon. I'll be running 3x Lascannons and 1x missile launcher.

Theduke08 Posted February 10, 2016 Author Share Posted February 10, 2016 The arm is from the new dev kit. Which is fantastic by the way. I dont really see flyers too often so I really dont think that im going to run flakk. Probably just going to run 3-5 missiles with a las.

Brother Kirus Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I like you space wolves. They are not drowned with “wolf-y” stuff which is quite refreshing. Painting is nice as well. You might want to experiment with some edge highlighting.
