POWERserg Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Hi, I'm building a Space Wolves army and I would really get some Lightning Blades on my most of my men (exchanging the swords for claws). Problem is, I like the Warp Talons much more and would like to use those instead of using the ones SW use. My question is, would Chaos looking claws look good on SW, if so, anyone has any picture of it in action (since I can't find anything on Google that contains it)? Also, would like to know if there are any other options in claws to replace the model used by SM in general, as in, like a 3rd party company making nice looking claws that are not exactly made by GW. Thank you. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/326648-chaos-claws-on-my-space-wolves-can-i/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runefyre Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 If you think it looks cool, then go for it! It's your hobby and your army! I come up with head-canon all the time for crazy little ideas that I think are cool. Personally I think WT claws should look awesome. For other claws, if you've got the money, you should try Forge-World's mk3 weapon upgrade set. The lightning claw's in there are awesome!

Quixus Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 13th Co. is bound to have at least some chaos equipment. You may want to remove some of the extra spikes from the warp talon claws.

Sandlemad Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Those finger-claw ones are essentially just the 30k-style lightning claws. Compare them to the cataphractii or the Raven Guard dark fury squad and you'll see they match up. Works perfectly, just say they're heresy-era relics. The punch dagger ones have a sort of jagged look that could work well painted up in a frosty style, if that's your thing. Like Harald Deathwolf's axe. The only pair that stands out is the one that appears to grow out of the chaotic armour trim. They do look very chaos-y but if you file off the studs they might look sufficiently Fenrisian.

AndrewChristlieb Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Meh just use them as is, show off your true loyalty wolf ;). Seriously though yeah, with a bit of shaving they should work just fine. I've used plenty of Chaos bits on my Templars and no one has ever batted an eye.

POWERserg Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 Thank you very much for the replies. @Runefyre - Thanks for the site, not only does it have pretty nice claws, it has just about everything, added to favorites. @Quixus - Aren't the Wulfen... 13th company? Sorry, I'm yet learning a lot about the lore. @Sandlemad - I did not know they where 30k era, makes sense that Chaos would be equipped with them. Although, knowing this has opened a lot of choices when it comes to fluff for my army. Ty :D @AndrewChristlieb - Hmm, not only that, maybe i can add a wolf skull and add it to the top of the hand area, I just gotta figure out how.

Quixus Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Yes, the wulfen are 13th Co, but not all of 13th Co. are Wulfen - at least they weren't previously. Can someone please confirm that not all of 13th Co. are silly werewolves.

Can someone please confirm that not all of 13th Co. are silly werewolves.Robbie MacNieven, the Black Library author who did the Warzone Fenris sequel series, confirmed that not ALL are Wulfen - they were just the first ones to arrive. On topic: Take a look at Kromlech's site (bitsofwar.com), they have nice Claws in the Superhuman section.
