PeteySödes Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Mk3 have a pretty brutal look that works nice. Otherwise I’ve taken from the chaos line as well. We’re trophy takers =I= be damned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karack Blackstone Posted January 6, 2019 Author Share Posted January 6, 2019 Yes. My Mark 3’s heads are for my HH project, though. I should have plenty of spare Mk. 7 helmet heads to go around for a bit. It’s more the bits dive sites to get enough that concerns me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasper_Hawser Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Beakies are always a classic. Like the one in the grey Hunter box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triszin Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 I ended up combining the Aggressor respirator helm and a wulfen head. looks rightly fearsome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karhedron Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 - What is the best pack equipped Bolt Rifle variant? I think the base BR is the best all around option. I think that the standard Rapid Fire version is generally the best option unless you have a specific role in mind. I think our Grey Hunters are much better than regular Tac squads and operate well in the mid field. For this reason I think the Stalker version can have a role either in babysitting objectives in your deployment zone or screening Long Fangs from unwelcome charges. The extra range of the stalker in these roles is likely to be more useful than the ability to double-tap up close. I can't really feel the love for the Assault version though, especially as it costs extra. - Repulsor, I forget the loadout, mostly dakka, with a decent spread of grenade launchers. Has the two Onslaught Gatling weapons, however. The Dakka Repulsor is pretty good although I would say there is a good case for upgrading the heavy bolters to lascannons since the twin-lascannon got a price drop in Chapter approved. Having a few extra anti-tank guns on a platform with POTMs is pretty helpful if you run into an armour-heavy list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiguriusX Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 did the stalker bolt rifle get a stratagem in general or is it limited to a special detachment? someone told me they can snipe and ignore character rules now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteySödes Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 did the stalker bolt rifle get a stratagem in general or is it limited to a special detachment? someone told me they can snipe and ignore character rules now Only in the Crusaders detachment and only with the veteran upgrade. We dont have access to it as wolves though. 1CP - Crusaders 1CP/unit - Veterans 1CP - Target Sighted strat to allow the unit to snipe characters.

Karack Blackstone Posted January 7, 2019 Author Share Posted January 7, 2019 Thanks for the kind offers, however, I am almost exclusively in need of Mark 7 PA heads for my WH40K force. WH30K however, some spare Mark 3 Helmets might not hurt. As it is, the dakka Repulsor is pretty well suited to my needs. The problem is points pinching is pretty hard already at this time. Still, some spare Twin Lascannon might not hurt. Not 100% sure, but I'll think about it and take a look at the issue over time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulwyf Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Brothers, I need some help. I can't find the official Forgeworld color scheme for HH era Space Wolves. Emailed FW and they said their studio painters never got around to posting it like they did with the original legions in the first book. So I've went from this painting scheme for Emperor's Children that I've used: Purple: 1. Basecoat with Xereus Purple; 2. Wash with Druchii Violet; 3. Layer with thinned 50/50 mix of Xereus Purple and Genestealer Purple; 4. Final layer with 25/75 mix of Xereus Purple and Genestealer Purple. Gold: 1. Basecoat with Balthasar Gold; 2. Wash with Agrax Earthshade; 3. Highlight with Gehenna’s Gold; 4. Glaze with extremely thinned Druchii Violet. White: 1. Basecoat with Ceramite White; 2. Glaze with thinned Guilliman Blue; 3. Highlight with White Scar Which was a great guide. Now I can't find a walk through like that for Space Wolves. I know the color scheme is a dark grey (like so many HH legions before the split) but I don't want it to turn into Iron Warriors or Iron Hands. Appreciate any help! I got my Space Wolf Levi put together with some SW bits tossed on but need to paint it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karack Blackstone Posted January 10, 2019 Author Share Posted January 10, 2019 I was actually wondering if there were an online version of that paint scheme. Definitely going to need to see about a link stack some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt.Danjou Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 I am almost finished with my Aggressors now, just some touch ups and they are done as Table top quality. Here they are with a unnamed wolf priest. Cpt. Danjou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarl Kjaran Coldheart Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 I've decided to halt any further work on my Wolves until this years ETL For now I'll focus on other projects and finish up the incomplete stuff on my desk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Great job on the Aggressors. As for the Wolf Priest, may I suggest the name "Azog the Purifier"? (As he wears a white wolf helm instead of a Wolf Priest's wolf SKULL helm, I was going to suggest the name "Elric," as the "White Wolf" was one of the latter's nicknames. I reconsidered because the name means "Elf Lord," which may make Imperial allies question the Wolf Priest's loyalties; naming him after the "Pale Orc" from The Hobbit seems more appropriate.)

Might just prime and base coat the rest. That way I can always get any new Primaris ready and make them priority for etl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killersquid Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Well, I had a fantastic 2000pt game against Tyranids yesterday. Playing some kind of ITC mission. Game ended in a dead tie, which was a fitting end for a great game! Best part was Bjorn singlehandedly holding against pretty much the entire Tyranid army! He killed probably a dozen gaunts, 5 tyranid warriors, a tyranid prime, a venomthrope and a tervigon! All in combat. My axe and shield dreadnought did great as well, and both proved to be a good vanguard for my army. I outflanked three of my grey Hunter squads, which was super handy too, as they were able to hang up on, and plasma a flying hive tyrant when it arrived (to be finished off by a unit of thunderwolves!) Great game! I'm looking forward to playing with my wolvea more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbarnby71 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 I have a few Primaris to finish, then my 2 main projects will be based around these: This is a Male Warbeast from the Dwarf range by Atlantis Miniatures. My plan is to create a rider in Terminator Armour with a feral look with a harpoon weapon. I want him to have an old ragged appearance as though he has been lost on patrol for decades, so will have a junk pile of weapons and armour attached. After that is Sergeant Dragos Dragadovich from Warmachine. He will either become an Iron Priest or possibly just a close combat beast. This model is really stunning in detail, but it has stupid skinny legs below the knees, so will have to replace them with Terminator Armour.
