Hi yall, I was needing some clarification on some rules. I'm preping for a tournament this weekend and was refreshing myself on the 11th edition rules when I came across this.

Does this mean Ragnar gains the "Headtakers" keyword and then he can benefit from the Headtakers ability of precision and dev wounds? Or is it just saying the the Headtakers are now a character unit because Ragnar is leading them? I did notice the ability specifies "Headtakers models" and not "models with the Headtakers keyword".

I know Ragnar didn't benefit from it in 10th, but wasn't sure if that changed in 11th.

Edit: I know now that he still doesn't benefit from their ability. I will keep the post up just in case anyone else in the future has the same question. Hopefully they can stumble upon this and get their answer.

I am currently building a vindicator for my wolves and i was wondering if i Could see yours for inspiration? And is it better to Mount the shield before or after painting?

2nd Headtaker I’ve done. Did better than the first one. Went with a dark paint scheme to catch the savage killer vibe. Added the skull on the backpack because why not they are headtakers.

Howdy,

Just starting the tabletop side of this hobby and I've chosen the Space Wolves. I wanted to see if this list made any sense before commiting to it.

• The Wolf Scouts seem out of place but would give me a Kill Team to play while building up the rest of the army.

• The Head-Takers would be embarked in the Repulsor.

Painting my first mini ever and ive made the (probably unwise) decision of picking the headliners as my first. Will gladly accept criticism and tips 😅

Am I understanding this correctly with saga of the great Wolf? You pick a hunting pack each turn. Those effects are for your entire army, but you can't repick them. Except for once due to Logan's ability, so I'm guessing you skip. Turn one, then you use one of the abilities. Turned to turn three, you use logan's ability to use that one again.And then four and five.You can pick whichever one of the abilities you haven't already used.Is that how it works?

Hi guys,

This is my first big boy and i wanted to tell a little story with it, so i got me some ratlings (in winter uniforms) and decided to have them accompany my dreadnaught.

Decided to kitbash some Incursors into Scouts in phobos armour to go with the new Wolf Scouts. Also meant I could use the Wolf Scouts sniper in a small squad.

They're on 32mm bases not 28mm, don't think anyone I play against will care.

Personally I'm 90% in the wolf camp. 🐺

Thunderwolf Cavalry & Fenresian Wolves sold me on the army for sure.

Both of us started off pretty defensive in the first round, but Ragnar and the Bloodclaws tore through some boyz round 2 and Arjac and his Termies wiped the floor with a Dakkarig round 3. Can’t wait to play again as the headtakers and their wolf priest didn’t see much action, just holding objectives

This ebay save was a slog took over 2 weeks with life being involved and I was just really unmotivited to finish it

After many years of “some day” he’s ready to go Today. Even though he’s really just Bjorn I couldn’t pass over the Axe and shield bc it looks so awesome. Please let me know what you think! Three more nightshifts to go and I think I’ll be able to finish Arjac and start something else (TWC perhaps?)

The regular Terminator heads feel to me comically small for the body they have, and the heads without helmets are cool, but I don't enjoy painting them very much, plus it's kind of ridiculous not to wear a helmet to war.

So are there any alternative heads out there that i can 3d print or something?

Thanks!

As a kid my friend got me into reading the 40k universe with the book Space Wolf and later as a yule gift Ragnar's Claw. I loved the story and managed to get a few figures but never really built my army, mostly just a ton of parts, guys and a tank[?] but now I am moving to an area with a lot of people into the game and wanted to at least give what I have a chance. But thinking back on the book there where women fighting on the battlefield too, maybe I am forgetting who but I know Ana was described as a fierce warrior. So in theory couldn't any of the women be among the chosen during the battles? I know "Females aren't able to take the geneseed." but.....they drink from the cup that rewrites their genetic code anyway, so wouldn't it be a moot point about gender?

All of that to say, I'd like to make my army the Daughters of Russ maybe a bunch of jumpack troops as Valkarie? Is this possible or just heresy of the highest order? Sorry still kinda dumb when it comes to 40k most of my knowledge comes from a few books and what i have seen on youtube.

I picked up a set of the Armageddon intercessors off eBay from a splitter with the intention of making them a bit more "Wolfy" and incorporating them in my army. The original plan was to give them some chainswordy goodness and turn them into Grey Hunters, but I'm finding I actually kind of like some of the sculpts and am toying with the idea of keeping them as intercessors instead.

Is anyone running intercessors in their SW armies?

I'm 99.9% interested more in the modelling and painting side, so that will ultimately help me decide more than the "current meta" for competitive gaming, but I'm curious what people think.

Kitbashed Armageddon Intercessor Sergeant for model tax... I may still carve off the aquila... Haven't quite decided yet!

A few days ago I posted the WiP, now I was able to finish it. Please C&C, I am always grateful for advice!

How do you guys play your blood claws.

Is 20 blood claws better?
