UniWolf Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 did anyone else think that this was the official werewolf knight being release by GW? little disappointed it isn't, but at least it won't fuel the wolfy wolf haters out there Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350328-canis-rex/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrFlur Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 nope I don't belive for a moment there's going to be a werewolf knight. Not now, and I hope not ever. Spaces wolves are not proud of the wulfen show...they aren't going to made a big giant posterboy of it. GW on the other hand ...

Guest Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 We've known for awhile Canis Rex was going to be a Imperial Knight. I agree with GrFlur, I hope there is never a werewolf knight even the Wulfen dread is a bit far in my opinion. As we've seen in the lore being a Wulfen is something to be ashamed of. Logan is still concerned about trying to stop the curse as seen about his concern with the Primaris.

UniWolf Posted September 15, 2018 Author Share Posted September 15, 2018 Oh my bad hadn’t seen anything about before. Canis is the genus which wolves, dogs, coyotes etc belong to so I was adding 2 and 2 to get 5 I seems Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350328-canis-rex/#findComment-5167352 Share on other sites More sharing options...
greysquigg Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Most importantly in my view, any fluff reasons why we might field one? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350328-canis-rex/#findComment-5167661 Share on other sites More sharing options...
OgreOnAStick Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 A little known Knight World of Argentor is pretty much right next to Fenris on the galactic map. Freeblades mesh well thematically with the rejection of authority and embracing individualism aspects. And well, folk of Fenris aren't exactly averse in making unusual alliances.

TiguriusX Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Most importantly in my view, any fluff reasons why we might field one? our codex has an entry about a hawkshroud knight swearing loyalty to us i have my own fluff for my knight detachment as well i field house mortan they were present for the most recent attack on fenris as part of the DA assembly. my knights were part of the fighting on svellgard (with sven and harald) they saw great martial prowess from the wolves in the fight against demons They have sworn an oath of loyalty to make amends for being tricked and fighting against loyalists Logan has assigned them to my task force as we seek revenge on a private hunt Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350328-canis-rex/#findComment-5167697 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Priest Jbickb Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Plus the whole space wolves save a knight world from orks and exterminatus from the last campaign (to early to recall names) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350328-canis-rex/#findComment-5168020 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasper_Hawser Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Plus the whole space wolves save a knight world from orks and exterminatus from the last campaign (to early to recall names) Alaric Prime. This was the infamous campaign where Krom and Ragnar basically made a fool of themselves. Mostly Krom though, but thankfully he wised up after that, volunteering to stay at the Fang when the CoTW and WoM happened. Ragnar I think at one point, blindly charged into an Ork Horde even when Logan told him to hold the line. I believe the Knights at Alaric Prime were Terryn, which is a very decent house by itself, both rules wise and fluff wise. Gerantius the lone Green Knight was also part of the campaign, so a case can be made for a Gerantius like Freeblade to fight with the Wolves.

Rune Priest Jbickb Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Right thank you. As I recall hawkshroud became oathsworn to the space wolves after those events.

Wispy Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Alaric was home to muliple knight houses. House Degallio was prominant. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/350328-canis-rex/#findComment-5170317 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karhedron Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Most importantly in my view, any fluff reasons why we might field one? Wolves respect honour and courage in their allies which are traits that Knights tend to exemplify. I can easily imagine Knights and Wolves being fielded together and the Knights dying to give the Wolves a chance to win the battle with just a lone survivor. Afterwards the Iron Priests patch up the surviving Knight who swears fealty to the Wolves in return. This then gives you an excuse to run one of these!
