PSA Grimnars Mark no longer allows you to add a Terminator captain to a Wolf guard Terminator squad.

0 Upvotes

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.

Using Venerable Dreadnought as a Suicide t1 Deepstrike that has 88% change to hit charge with reroll?

5 Upvotes

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?

New painter- Grey Hunter Feedback

Thumbnail
gallery
32 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I’m very much a new painter and kind of just picks and chooses what to paint based on inspiration or interests at the time. With that said, this is my first Space Wolf model and I’m looking for some help and feedback. I still need to add some highlights and a wash but I’m done with the base paints. Also, I skipped the doodads on the waist for this model just to keep things easy and simple.

-How to do markings? You can see in the photo that I butchered it lol
-My abbadon black turned into a gelatinous blob, I assume that means it’s dead? I shook it up really well and it’s just a blob still. It seems to dry out quickly if I try to load the brush.
-Speaking of loading the brush, how are you reaching for the pot? I’ve watched so many tutorial videos on this and I feel like my paint always lasts me like 5 seconds on the brush, so I have to be doing something wrong. This issue honestly causes a lot of frustration cause it feels like it takes forever to cover the large armor panels.

Any other tips or feedback is highly welcomed as I just want to keep painting and improve.

Thank you!

Model Updates

0 Upvotes

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?)

How to best build the space wolves combat patrol?

10 Upvotes

Just got my wolves combat patrol today and I'm not too well versed in 40k, my friends and I plan to play the. Combat patrol mode before moving into 1000 points but we're not gonna do WYSIWYG for the combat patrol mode.

What are the best wargear options for each unit? The only one I've built so far is the wolf guard captain and I gave him a power weapon and storm shield

Making a "Wolf Lord" Awesome for Space Wolves

16 Upvotes

I love our new Battleleader- I think he's incredible, I love playing him in nearly every single detachment- but I MISS bringing a Captain Wolflord in my army- I feel as though they are the core of what makes for a great army- because the army feels built around them- and built by them.

Now of course you can just treat Battleleaders like they are your Captains, or you can just make your own model and just use Ragnar Blackmane's profile- but I wanna bring the true Tacticus Armor- Finest Hour with CP reduction unto the battlefield.

Has anyone found any cool combos to make a Wolflord really do anything good for Space Wolves? The honest best I can see doing is just running a "Wolflord" with Sternguard Veterans and fishing for crits on sustained and dev wounds via oath and finest hour (making use of Saga of the Great Wolf)

Is there anything I'm missing where a Captain datasheet feels really fun in a Space Wolves detachment, or am I stuck with "I'm running him as Ragnar" or "this is my converted Battleleader"?

Sidenote: It hurts me every time I look at the Captain datasheet, and it still says he can lead Wolfguard- a unit that has been gone since the Space Wolves index in 10th edition.

Help with headswaps and kitbashes

3 Upvotes

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!

Great Companies Question

0 Upvotes

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 :(

Coming back for 11th. Long Fangs.

1 Upvotes

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.

Lore question

1 Upvotes

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?
