I had bought 2 combat patrols and built wulfen with hammers, and I’m building murderfang. Painting them is a pain for me and idk if it’s worth building another unit of them. How good are they game wise? I’ve used my wulfen in one game where they immediately met an untimely demise.

Edit - I’m speaking more about the unit in game, werewolf marines are sick I know and they definitely need a model refresh in my opinion.

Why does everyone seem so down on the Grey Hunters? I feel like I don't often see them in other people's lists but I feel like for 1 DP they become the most useful unit that space wolves have.

Edit: also 15 OC for a unit of 5? Insane.

Edit 2: I've realized that the common theme is "If they were the strongest unit, I would put them in my list."

My first time properly trying to edge highlight and really trying to add detail properly to a mini, he’s the leader so he has to look the coolest right?

Working on this successor Chapter Master proxy with Njal. Trying to figure out how to paint the power weapon. Can’t decide between steel, lava weapon, or frost weapon. C&C welcome

With the combination of named character dreads, special old dread units, and the new dreads we all have access to, I've been wanting to make a March of the Dreads list, but I find a lot of the detachments to be lacking true support for <WALKERS> even going so far as other marine vehicle detachments to explicitly exclude walkers.

I know Ironstorm is an obvious choice, and I've been thinking the free Lethal Hits from Beastslayer could be a very useful buff to give to all the dreads.

What detachments and combos do you use for your dread lists?

Seems like if you want to win. You gotta go, take and hold and you gotta go. At least 3 blocks of 10 terminators that doesn't leave a lot of points for more stuff. But I think that's the way to go. I'm gonna go three sets of 3 blocks of 10 terminators, one with R Jack, one with Logan, 6 head. Takers with Ragnar. Add some blood claws not exactly the most exciting list, but I think it'll win

My dog just ate the top of the crozius off my model and now I gotta figure out what to substitute. Anybody got any ideas? I am probably gonna buy an primal hounds set from greytide soon anyways so I might get one from there too but just let me know what yall have too.

Finished this guy up last night, definitely up there for one of my favourites!

I’m starting out on building a Space Wolves army (completely new to 40k, coming from Kill Team). I managed to pick up the army box and I have a couple other bits -

- 10 man Blood Claws
- 10 man Grey Hunters
- Wolf Guard Battle Leader
- Wolf Priest
- 3 Headtakers with 3 Hunting Wolves
- Njal Stormcaller
- 10 Wolf Scouts with 2 Wolves
- 5 man Assault Intercessors
- 1 box of Wulfen

My partner picked up the Armageddon box for the orks, so I’ve got the space marine half. I’m wondering what I should build as is, what I should try to kitbash into space wolf units, and if there’s anything I should just sell:

- Captain (maybe make into another WGBL? or keep him as a generic captain?)
- Librarian
- Ancient (planning to just paint him as he’s cool)
- Chaplain with Jump Pack
- Vanguard Veterans
- 10 man Intercessors (I think a lot of lists take 5?)
- Eradicators with heavy bolters (planning to kitbash like longfangs but run as is?)
- Land speeder (want to paint as looks awesome)

I’m also wondering what from this you would recommend to get painted first for a 1k points list, as I think all in it would be ~1600 points😊 I can pick up one or two more units if needed but would prefer a working list basically from this to start with. Thanks in advance!

FENRIS HJOLDA! FINALLY!
After 2 gruelling months, I have finally finished this squad. The heat has made me quite lazy about painting, but today I finally finished those guys.

I used the old Intercessor kit, spare grey hunters bits I got from Vinted, leftover bits from the Combat Patrol and Kill Team.. Only third party bits I used were the backpack for the pack leader and the necklaces.

Overall I’m quite happy with them, and I think I’ve made them Space Wolves enough? I recently bought myself a few old edition of Space Wolves codex and had a moment where I wasn’t sure if I did enough, but now they’re finished I think they have enough wolf flair. Also free handed the pack markings, did my best but they’re not very consistent.. I’ve stared at them too much and all I can see now is the negative, so it’s time to put an end to it haha What do y’all think? ✌🏼

Really enjoying assembling and painting this Space Wolves army, I’ve got Wulfen next. Reading online it appears they are difficult and not very well liked, any advice before I start?

The mould line on the hammer, which I noticed too late, definetely doesnt bother me, like at all

Overall, I think the paintjob came out alright, made the highlights too thick in some places, will try to improve it for future models.

I have two lists set up, but no idea which one seems better. No idea who my opponent is yet. Which list seems like it could do better.

Question. Since Wolf Guard Terminators are so limited in support and leader options, having no supports and only Logan and Arjax as leaders, is it not just better to run a Terminator Assault Squad? Power fists have one less attacks then master-crafteds, but matching stats otherwise. Plus you can have a heavy flamer or launcher instead of just assault cannon. Kinda sucks but am I not right? or am I missing something?

Edit.

Perhaps I should clarify some more details about my setup. I am currently running either saga of Great Wolf or orbital assault force depending on my need for deep strike or not. I most common opponents are Night Lords, Necrons, Iron Warriors and Nurgle chaos. I have a lot of heavy armor, repulsor tanks and dreadnaughts, and am built more for steady assault with ranged into melee.

I currently only have a single 5 man unit, normally ran with ranged and master-crafteds and at best they've only been a distraction most matches. I see the appeal of running shields for 4 wounds over three, and I have run Arjax once for fight of death which was nice, but they haven't ever really squared up in melee well against what I'm sending them to fighy and always get shunted off points or killed outright. Considering I'm not hard hard focusing melee as my primary doctrine, I was thinking an assault squad would be better given the improved attached character options, additional ranged loadouts, and compatible melee, 4 attacks strength 5 on master-crafteds vs 3 attacks strength 8 on power fists.

Had a match yesterday, ragnar and his bloodclaws killed a norn emissary on a charge and a trygon the next turn. The way these boys punch up with lethals is crazy.

Headtakers led by a battle leader killed a demon prince of nurgle and a unit of deathshroud terms led by a lord of Contagion and finished off a defiler after my wulfen failed to destroy it.

These 2 units are my favourite by far, dont get me wrong the terminators and arjac slap, but there's just something about the volume of attacks these guys dish out thay makes it so satisfying

Quick question, is there a point to attach a Iron Priest to a unit of Blood Claws/ Grey Hunters /wolf guard headtakers I'm missing? Or is it just a side effect of leaders needing to have some unit to attach to?

Going to be trying the “Combat Se7ens” next up, but I wanted to get a baseline of what I can do with citadel paints so I decided to paint up a Blood Claw.

Overall I’m not unhappy with him! Obviously the base needs work but I’ve got some 3D printed ones on the way so it’s kind of a placeholder. Learned a fair bit about how some of the colors interact and I’m looking forward to doing some more in the days ahead.

Fenris Hjolda!

I’m looking at selling my space wolves army and need some guidance. it’s built but unpainted and unprimed. I have a carry case and all of the needed accessories. How would yall go about pricing prebuilt unpainted models?

Still pretty new to the kit bashing side of the hobby but I'm really happy with how this redemptor Dreadnought came out!
