also heard that in the 1k tourney that they did with the leakes that wolves tabled all of their opponents.

Any batreps available?

a question on Wulfen. The entry says any model may replace his claws with weapon. But the pack leader isn't outfitted with claws, he has frost claws. Can I still replace the unit's frost claws with shield and hammer? I am glad that some stores are showing off the entries early so that I can ask these questions lol.

How are you guys building yours? I have two packs built that have:

 

1 Leader with Claws

1 Claws

1 Axe

2 Hammers

 

1 Leader with Claws

2 Axes

2 Hammers

 

Should I rebuild some of them to add more hammers? 62 pts a pop is expensive but the Axes and Claws, while cool looking, don't have the threat that they did in 7th.

I'm actually thinking that I may build 1 or 2 of my Wulfen as unarmed models, just sticking with their Wulfen Claws. I'm thinking that this might be a good idea to soak up a few mortal wounds. Wulfen are powerful enough that it seems likely they'll be targeted by units that can inflict mortal wounds. Combine that with the fact that all their weapon options got more expensive and it'd be a real shame to lose them before they get into CC. It's just how like when I rule TWC I always take at least one guy with just a storm shield and chainsword: when the unit suffers wounds, losing him doesn't hurt so badly as losing someone with an expensive weapon.

Any thoughts on thrown a few Wulfen with Wulfen Claws into units?

It makes a lot of sense man. Good thinking. But I may run with only 1-2 guys per Wulfen unit unequipped if any.

i was told today that units of wulfen with hammers and shields were taking down knights in one combat.

 

Excellent.

Although they did this in 7th anway did they not? (they ruined knights any time i managed to get mine near them)

 

1k points:

logan on sled, long fangs 3 las cannons 2 HBs, scouts w/snipers, WGT with combimelta and wulfen with shields and hammers. basically tabled everyone from what I was told.

 

Pretty fun sounding list (if only i didn't hate that sled model so much...)  

 

Weird seeing a SW list with no GH and no TWC in it though! :)

they damn well better. A wulfen with hammer and shield is 62 points a pop.

Actually I saw a copy of the imperium one index a week ago to study up on things. The actual cost of a thunder hammer is 20 points with five points left for stormshields. Grreat frost axes are straight 25 points while frost claws are close to 20. The wulfen seem alot cheaper in this coming edition.
