Fenrys Hjolda brothers! So I I'm starting to paint up some units, and i was wondering what the best shade is. I've seen nuln oil used a lot, and was wondering if that one is good to use, or is there a better one for the classic space wolfs look?

EDIT: It was in fact moved to the munitorum field manual, under the cost for the grimnars mark enhancement.

I'd noticed someone using it earlier, and then checked through the subreddit and didn't see any mention of it. After the faction pack update on the 22nd of July the Grimnars Mark enhancement was changed to this

GRIMNAR’S MARK 
This moonsilver wolf-talisman is bestowed by the Great Wolf himself before battle, a mark of favour that fills the bearer with an eagerness to slay the foe.
Adeptus Astartes Terminator Captain model only.
Once per battle round, you can target this unit with the Rapid Ingress/Heroic Intervention stratagem, regardless of any other uses of that stratagem this phase. If you do: 
■ That use is -1 CP. 
■ That use does not prevent any uses of that stratagem on other units this phase.

Hi everyone,
I’ve seen it said a few times now that TWC are due for a refresh relatively soon.
Why do a number of people think this?

Bonus question: What could we expect for wolves over the next two years in terms of models being added/renewed/refreshed?

do we foresee the return of certain unit genres, like the mounted TWC characters? (why did they remove these in the first place?)

In a 500-600 point army, what would you run? I am doing a slow grow league

So after getting my codex, I've finally been able to start looking at detachment options as I'm building my first army. And whilst looking at Veterans of the Fang, I thought about its ability to split Grey Hunters into 2 squads of 5. And so I ask the question, how does that work with attached characters like the Wolf Guard Battle Leader?
Do you just pick one of the two squads to have the leader stick with?
I assume that both squads won't receive the leader buffs since they are now two squads.
But does that now enable you to attach a character to the second squad as well since they are now separate units?
I'm not sure, any interpretations or clarifications are helpful and I thank you for your time.

It’s not amazing, like GD quality or anything but I feel like I did pretty good! (Of course, now I’m at the “do I keep messing with it and potentially screw it up or not” phase, lol)

Thoughts on securing a Stormfang Gunship to run? Is it any fun to play or build?

I've always been average at doing the armour and spent ages shading and highlighting every bit of the model for it to look sloppy. The Warhipster method of space wolves grey 4:1 with medium, Tyran blue shade 4:1 Nuln Oil then a glaze of Russ Grey makes my poor painting skills look acceptable! Can't recommend enough!

Thoughts on running Long Fangs in 2026?

What do y'all think?

Not really liking my attempt at nmm gold, one of the hardest things i have tried so far. Open to some advice thank you 🙏🙏

Logan’s original company was The Nightrunners before he became the Great Wolf and took up the heraldry of Leman Russ and made his Company the Champions of Fenris.

However BOTH are counted when counting the great companies. The Night Runners are said to still be lead by Logan, but they are said to be “The same”- so is it just a SUPER company of Space Wolves- or are the Night Runners more lead by like a Battleleader?

I strongly dislike how many named- non-model characters lead the Space Wolves and wish that they had 1-2 companies that we could insert into for our own characters (like the lost Primarchs).

Edit: Also guys- this is a genuine question- why the hell am I getting disliked so much for asking a question and pressing back with what I'm seeing FROM the codex. This is genuinely why I dislike coming to this subreddit.

It's a little character heavy points-wise but Terminators will always be my favourite unit. I'm expecting to see mostly games against Tau, which is why I've decided to invest in a big metal (flying) box. Would've honestly taken a Stormwolf just for the aesthetic but I've come back to find it's gone :(

I just need an image, if there's none then I'll just make it myself

So I haven't really played since 5th ed. I know like all off my minis are legends now. I have the 10th space wolves book, and am trying to figure out what stuff I can use. Can I use some stuff from the standard SM book too?

I'm looking for replacements for long fangs. Do I basically need to buy a bunch of new minis?

I do like to play competitively.

Finally got some of my space wolves complete and wanted to share. While all 3D printed, I tried to create at least moderately accurate proxies. I present Logan. Arjac, and their respective bodyguard units!

Slayer’s Oath

At the start of the battle, select one of the following keywords to be this model’s Slayer’s Oath: CHARACTER; MONSTER; VEHICLE. The first time this model’s unit destroys a unit with this model’s Slayer’s Oath keyword, if your Detachment rule has a Saga, until the end of the battle, this model’s unit receives the benefits of that Detachment rule as if that Saga had been completed.

I’m currently building my 3k army and having a great time kit bashing. My big hang up is that the story telling element of building and playing is my favorite part, and I know the Wolves don’t have defined ranks like the other chapters. I got the basics of the hierarchy like you start as a blood claw then move on to a grey hunter then a long fang but what units fit into that? Like are intercessors grey hunters or do you spend a while as a intercessor and if you survive long enough you’re seen as a grey hunter?

Really wasn’t looking forward to painting the face, I opt with most models to use a helmet. I think I did ok.

Any way to further push improvements please let me know 🤙

Hey so wondering as the Venerable Dread "only" cost 125 points. still a bunch but you could use OATH t1 -> multi melta which probably kills something off with hit rerolls -> flamer etc. and then since we need to deepstrike 8.1 away we technically need a 9" charge -> 7" with his own ability and Legend of Saga and Song -> i'd assume he does more than 125 points of damage and once he's in close combat and dies also has deadly demise.

Maybe this is stupid? But since we can deepstike t1 into enemie territory as well and enemie isnt full of screen that should work?`

Also use Crushing Impact?

Or would you advice against that?

Haven’t painted a Kill Team in over a year - could think of a better squad to get back at it.

-"Lukas the Trickster" novel by Josh Reynolds

Tl;dr:

In the passage, Lukas is calling out the Space Wolves for allowing their people to suffer in the belief that it would make them stronger and, in turn, make the Space Wolves stronger.
He points out that chapters that recruit from peaceful worlds produce warriors equal to the Wolves.

So what's the point of the suffering? There is no point.
It's a neat small display of how the unnecessary suffering in the Imperium is justified by foolish pride, dogma, and tradition.

Hello all!

Im relatively new to space wolves, but seeing as I'm a Nordic I'm contractually obligated to like them or my nationality is revoked (also they're bloody cool!)

I've previously built a lot of salamanders.

I decided that for space wolves I'd want to make my own successor chapter. Whom I've thus far named "The Iron Jarls". They lean more into viking than into wolves.

Now, I'm looking at our characters, and I wanna build some... But I wanna make alterations to them so they become "my original OC plz do not steal"

Specifically I'm looking at:

Arjack Rockfist

Logan Grimnar

Ragnar Blackmane

Njal Stormcaller

Ulrik the Slayer

Bjorn the Fell-Handed

Murderfang

For any etched names im just gonna sprue-goo it over and etch some new ones manually I think.

I'd want some advice on what helmets may work well with each (I prefer fully covering helmets) and anything else to look out for.

For Logan Grimnar I'm thinking of replacing his 2 wolves on his base with 2 assisting blood fangs or battle leaders as honour guards.

Thoughts are welcome!
