Grey Mage Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 With the new edition what are people building?Do you like to 'bling' the hell out of your wolves or do you go for a more reserved look?I just finished the paint on a Legion Sicaran, 4 heavy bolters and an accelerator cannon should do alot of work here soon. I rebooted by wolves this spring, and Im sticking with one or two small 'wolfy' things a model at most. Warriors first, kick-ass-fenrisians second.

Wispy Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I have my eye on some Interceptors. I think they'd by good compliments to most Space Wolves mainstays (namely Thunderwolves, Greyhunters, and Wulfen). Plus you wouldn't need too many wolf bits for them. Helmets are appropiate - they rode in from orbit - and they wouldn't wear any charms or pelts because they'd burn up on re-entry. Instead you use the Primaris armour real estate to paint knotwork and runes.

Valerian Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Wispy, you mean Inceptors. Interceptors are a Grey Knights unit. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/334265-so-what-are-you-building/#findComment-4770677 Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonewolf81 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 i am building 5xscouts+wg pack leader (2xplasma pistol, plasma gun, combi plasma) pretty cheapo unit that packs a punch http://imgur.com/KkgLl3i http://imgur.com/shX60Ua http://imgur.com/IhKoBq7 http://imgur.com/JrDwA1B http://imgur.com/qJ4LQXV http://imgur.com/CDW3UY2 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/334265-so-what-are-you-building/#findComment-4771192 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf_Lord_Hardrada Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I just ordered 20 NOS wolves from ebay, which if my maths is right will bring my numbers up to about 70 individual marines(not including dreds/tanks etc)...I guess I'm building a full Great Company after all... I think I'm going to make them into Blood Claws as the sprues seem to be a mix of BC&GH, this of course means that I'm going to need to buy more Rhinos or Drop Pods. Though what I should really do is buy some Long Fangs as I'm lacking in heavy weapons...but then, a couple more Dreds wouldn't hurt, would they?

Bloody Legionnaire Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I'm still going to be rocking Ragnar's Drop Pod marines list. With the changes to assaulting from Drop Pods and Long Fangs being able to shoot at essentially BS4 the turn they disembark I'm actually feeling pretty confident. I just need to figure out how to support then with pre-deployed units on the table top. I'm thinking fast units that can really bite are the way to go. I.E. Land Speeders, Bikers, and TWC. Dreadnoughts would be cool too but I'd really like to Pod those in since my army is lacking in "shooty" dreads. Hellblasters would be sweet but I think I'll hold out to see if they get a Drop Pod of their own.

Garreck Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I've got a couple drop pods that I need to put together for my vow. Not gonna lie, the news that they can't carry dreads kinda knocked the wind out of my motivation...I'll have 5 now and frankly no composition in mind to effectively use them...but I'll get it done durnit! Painting three dreads...and I finally sprang for a Canis Wolfborn who, to this point, seemed superfluous in any of my compositions (and honestly, even as a guy who really digs thunderwolves and wulfen, 'Canis Wolfborn' is almost a bridge too far). I feel like he'll add value to any army fielding thunderwolves, and with changes to the nature of armor saves and shooting at characters with fewer than 10 wounds I feel he's less of a liability than the previous edition.

Wraithwing Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I'm finishing of panting another 5 Blood Claws so I can field a unit of 10. I'll probably build 5 more and go for the full 15. I'm also building three more Long Fangs with Lascannons. I'll also probably build another with a missile launcher, and have two packs of 5 with 4 of each weapon. Also in my painting queue, my Land Raider Crusader and my Axe/Shield dread. Also need to figure out what to do with my Primaris.

Sentinel Guy Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Wolf guard bikes, fenrisian wolves, wulfen, wolf guard, grey hunters and long fangs. HQs will be rune and wolf priests. It's well past time the 13th company came back out to say hello. With the improvements to bikes, the increase to vehicle costs and the improvement of lascannons, I think I'm going to try a mostly foot slogging force again.

graceslick Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I only own start collecting and WG terminator boxes, im currently assembling them so I can basepaint them but without arms as I have no idea what to equip. Grey hunters with bolter and chainswords seems like a safe option tho.

crd26a Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 8th is my first foray into 40k. Most of the way through painting the Start collecting box, grabbed an old Warriors of the Fang box set I want to supplement with some Kromlech pieces (to be built / assembled) and grabbed some support pieces with a Razorback, Predator and a Dreadnought. Assembled the Predator and Dreadnought while working a garage sale this weekend. Will finish the Start collecting, paint the Predator and Dreadnought, then tackled the big box once a better sense of weapon choices become available.

PeteySödes Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Mostly finishing my vehicles atm just because im on the fence about making Primaris wolves vs. converting some true scale style grey hunters.
