Wolves 2.0 Speculation

Recommended Posts

Have we seen any evidence that Primaris are even going to have bikes though? That may be a design element that is on the way out, in favor of jump infantry only.

 

I really assumed that we were going to see them with Primaris White Scars generic enough to build some Primaris Ravenwing on - that they didn't show up makes me think that Primaris bikes may not be a thing.

 

I don't think Lukas can undergo the Rubicon, considering his grenade-heart.

Now thatd be funny

Last Laugh kills Cawl and his surviving helpers run away in fear, no more primaris upgrades for anyone

Every chapter can make their own primaris and upgrade current marines, Cawl has given the tech to everyone. So more like "well there goes Ulrik and a bunch of wolf priests".

i remember when inceptors came out, they likened them to filling the bike roll for primaris - y'know much dakka and t5.

 

i kind of glad they are downplaying bikes, as all the motorcycle jousting going on with them was a little bit silly... that said would like it if they did have one sort of primaris bike squad that dark angels and raven wing could rally around (with maybe a single mounted special character each for their trouble )

Looking back on this.

 

Rubicon crossovers

 

Harald: he'd still have his thunder wolf, put him in phobos armor still riding his t wolf

 

Ragnar: tacticus armor, and his 2 giant blackmane wolves

 

Lukas: (yes I think he is going to cross, and itll be explained that Ragnar was supposed to be the first to cross but Lukas altered paperwork and got it done). I think he would have weird hodgepodge phobos/tacticus srmor. ( I hope he'd get both bloodclaws and reivers keywords)

 

Njal: I see him in gravis plate.

 

Arjac:c. But he would hopefully be in Terminator prime plate, but likely he'd get gravis techmarine armor, and double as our primaris tech release.

 

 

Canis will die/become a dreadnaught, unless they fully commit and evolved the model which I doubt. His model will be discountimued.

 

We have more characters than other armies, and I hope we get some new characters.

Wolf spear chapter master, a few elite characters not unlike Lukas.

 

---------

 

(Endless spells)

If this is to be a thing, I suspect freki and greki will become summons that decimate things in cqc, living lightning and jaws as well.

 

 

---------

On eventual chapter specific units.

 

I think wolves will get tacticus armor, double headed waraxes with heavy pistols. And probably a dumb name.

 

--------

 

On lore

 

I care about this more than any of the above. I want to see the wolves reaction to wolfspear.

 

I'd hope ashesof prospero is confirmed. And we get 13th co Marines back, and I suspect they would under to the primaris treatment.

Going by Dark Angels primaris white dwarf leaks we aint getting new rules and strats there as they sure as heck didnt get any, makes me think non codex compliant codexes even further away if at all, more likely chapter approved and or Psychic Awakening books

Or just straight-up waiting for our new codex. I just hope its not too long a wait....

I imagine 8+ months. 2 supplements every 2 months means another 4 months of that. Then SoB, psychic awakening, AoS, and December no-release time.

 

Edit:forgot to say there is also the rumored Orks vs BT (or SW depending on what rumor monger you listen to) that will take place sometime early 2020.

gw sneakily edited the index faq that went up recently for marines

INDEX: IMPERIUM 1

 

 

Codex: Space Marines has updated certain datasheets. The following updates apply to the following units in Index: Imperium 1.The following datasheets gain the Angels of Death ability:

 

iron Priest on Bike

Iron Priest on Thunderwolf

Logan Grimnar

Lone Wolf

Lone Wolf in Terminator Armour

Wolf Guard Battle Leader on Bike

Wolf Guard on Bikes

Wolf Priest on Bike

 

 

which I find odd that they updated the lone wolves? because they became a strategem, and we can no longer take them

taking a lone wolf as a unit is still permissable. the strategem only creates lone wolves oathed in the field, not units who begin the battle as lone wolf.

This means the Lone Wolf created in the battlefield also gains the Angel of Death ability? I guess not, but ...

 

He would already have it

Not sure why they mention Logan G in the index when hes in the codex

Hes going to die...

 

Idk, maybe he will have a new model in *dry heaves* Gravis.

 

 

oooh that makes for one hell of a spoiler.

 

Oops we included Logan in this "legends" groundwork document because yes....Logan will be dying in the next codex and won't have a data entry

 

Now let our imaginations run wild...

 

Logan fails the primaris upgrade and Russ returns

 

Space Wolves players lose their minds

 

 

*the above is all speculation and rumor mongering

Pulled by Primaris Thunderwolves?

 

I'm afraid we have too many characters and we'll be losing some... Either dying or maybe with Logan moving into the background as an armchair general type figure. I hope not but we do have a LOT of characters compared to other chapters. Some I wouldn't mind losing but I won't list them because they're probably favourites of some other people, don't want to start an argument!

 

I'm also slightly afraid GW are going to ramp the wolf motif up to 11 with a new codex with more wolves, wulfen type units and Werewolf Russ but again, hopefully I'm wrong.

 

I'm looking forward to what our version of Doctrines will be. The rule you'll get for running only Wolves with no allies. I assume that'll be added to every codex now and I like it. You either specialise and get some extra rules, or utilise the different Imperial troops around. Any thoughts?

How many guns will be stuck on to his Primaris sled?

 

Primaris don't get bikes/sleds.  They will just leave Logan on foot to slog around with *maybe* an assault bolter and the Axe of Morkai.

It seems likely. Have to wait and see how it pans out. Some races (Tau, Necrons, Nids) can't soup anyway so applying Doctrines to them will be 100% win. I would like something like Stalk/Hunt/Slay for our Doctrines. Turn 1 we get some sort of cover buffs as we advance on the enemy. Turn 2 we get some speed buffs as we close in for the kill. Turn 3, anything left alive gets pureed in melee.

 

Just a little dream I have of course. :wink:

I mean Logan is a reasonably new kit I would be stunned if they killed him

i wouldn't be suprised if they rubicon'd him and made the mini compatible with stormrider so they could bundle the mini with it after a rebox (while also selling the mini separately).
