Skylarkr6 Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 So I have been trying to decide on a small allied Force to go with my Space Wolves, mainly to paint a different color then blue for once(too many UM and SW lately). I heard good things about DA hellblasters and aggressors at my FLGS so I am attempting to make the ever fluffy Lion and the Wolf list. Any advice would be welcome as I am still a fairly new player but please note this is mostly for fun. No tournaments for me, just a fairly competitive local meta. ++ Battalion Detachment +5CP (Imperium - Space Wolves) [60 PL, 1174pts] ++ + No Force Org Slot + Trophies of Fenris (1 Relic) + HQ + Rune Priest [7 PL, 131pts]: 4. Fury of the Wolf Spirits, 5. Storm Caller, Jump Packs, Psychic hood, Runic axe, Saga of the Wolfkin, Storm bolter, Warlord . The Armour of Russ: Relic of The Fang Wolf Lord [6 PL, 129pts]: Jump Packs, Storm shield, Thunder hammer . The Wulfen Stone: Relic of The Fang + Troops + Blood Claws [4 PL, 77pts] . 4x Blood Claw . Blood Claw Pack Leader: Power fist Grey Hunters [4 PL, 85pts]: 4x Chainsword . Grey Hunter Pack Leader: Chainsword . 2x Grey Hunter w/Bolt Pistol . Grey Hunter w/Plasma Pistol: Plasma pistol . Grey Hunter with Special Weapon: Bolt Pistol, Plasma gun Grey Hunters [4 PL, 85pts]: 4x Chainsword . Grey Hunter Pack Leader: Chainsword . 2x Grey Hunter w/Bolt Pistol .

Two Twin Heavy Bolters: 2x Twin heavy bolter + Dedicated Transport + Rhino [4 PL, 72pts]: Storm bolter ++ Vanguard Detachment +1CP (Imperium - Dark Angels) [43 PL, 817pts] ++ + HQ + Azrael [9 PL, 180pts] + Elites + Aggressor Squad [6 PL, 111pts]: 2x Aggressor, Aggressor Sergeant, Auto Boltstorm Gauntlets/Fragstorm Grenade Launcher Aggressor Squad [6 PL, 111pts]: 2x Aggressor, Aggressor Sergeant, Auto Boltstorm Gauntlets/Fragstorm Grenade Launcher Aggressor Squad [6 PL, 111pts]: 2x Aggressor, Aggressor Sergeant, Auto Boltstorm Gauntlets/Fragstorm Grenade Launcher + Heavy Support + Hellblaster Squad [16 PL, 304pts]: 8x Hellblaster, Plasma incinerators . Hellblaster Sergeant: Plasma pistol ++ Total: [103 PL, 1991pts] ++ Created with BattleScribe My plan is to load the wulfen and claws into the stormwolf and terrorize their back line. 2 squads of GH in the rhino with the last and the jump twins advancing up the board while the DA grab backline objectives. Azrael's bubble protects the aggressors and their ridiculous levels of dakka, while the hellblasters just... Be themselves I guess. My big concern is the list feels a little fragile, so I'm hoping to alleviate a bit of that on the advance with stormcaller, popping smoke, and Azrael invuln bubble. Using the actual Lion and wolf strategem could bring the priest to absolutely ridiculous number of attacks.

Yoyo ninja Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 The aggressors have a short range, only 18", so using them as back field objective holders takes them out of the game. I'd be more tempted to ditch the plasma pistols on the hunters and use them back field and keep throw the aggressors forward and a mobile gunline. Advance and shoot with no penalty or double shots is to good not to take advantage of. Other than that, looks like a list that would work well.

Yoyo ninja Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Maybe ditch one of the units of grey hunters, and either put the two remaining units in Razorbacks or fill out the bloodclaws and put them in the rhino.

Skylarkr6 Posted October 27, 2018 Author Share Posted October 27, 2018 Ok so updated game plan: Grey hunters deploy in rhinos, ready for objective grabbing. Blood claws, Wulfen,RP deploy in stormwolf. Send to enemy backline to be the anvil. **Too tempting of a target? Can see a lot of firepower heading it's way. I would** Azrael and aggressors run up the center, dakkaing everything. Twice Hellblasters deploy with primary objective of controlling midfield. And using cps on weapons of the dark age. Wolf Lord deploys in orbit, watching for his time to hit things with his hammer. ++ Battalion Detachment +5CP (Imperium - Space Wolves) [62 PL, 1151pts] ++ + No Force Org Slot + Trophies of Fenris (1 Relic) + HQ + Rune Priest [7 PL, 131pts]: 4.

Yoyo ninja Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Looks fairly solid. Your right, your stormwolf will be target number one. Keep the rune priest behind it and get of the -1 to hit strat, you wolf will be at -2 to hit, so will be hard to bring down by most things. If your ever playing Eldar, watch out for dark reapers, they always hit on 3+ regardless of modifiers.
