Some more pics of new Space Wolves





Arjac Looks quite cool, I'll probably get myself one!

Wolf Lord on Thunderwolf Will have to see him alongside the plastic TWC before I decide if he's worth having. I suspect it will be easier and create a more uniformed look to build the Lord from the normal kit. Just bling him out with some fancy bits.

Wolf Standard bearer Ugly banner and unnecessary resin addition to my plastic horde.

Cyberwolf I guess if someone used Iron Priests with those bad boys it could be worth having maybe, rather though instead of having 4 identical ones, people will go for the plastic Fenrisian Wolves and cyberify them.

Finally some wolfies! ...and nids too!









Thunderwolves, Fenrisian wolves, Arjac and both Tyrannofex, Tervigon and flying Tyrant! Lo and behold! And might that be a Wolf Standard?

Space Wolves Commission

I've ordered a Space Wolf army from a commission painter and there has been some progress that I'm quite excited about - Scouts! Apart from these bad boys we have six squads of Grey Hunters, three squads of Long Fangs, one squad of Wolf Guards, Nine(!) Razorbacks/Rhinos, one Rune Priest, Five Thunderwolves, Five Fenrisian Wolves, Two Land Speeders.

After that batch I'm thinking about adding two additional Priests, Logan, Njal, 6 CML Terminators, 2 Assault Cannon Terminators, 3 Lone Wolves and Bjorn (I ordered the Forgeworld Space Wolf Dreadnought). Maybe a few Multi-meltas, Drop Pod and Arjac (so I can try that trick too lol). Or I should wait for the next edition to leak so I know what I buy is actually not crap anymore.

Two Headed - anything goes Warhammer 40k tournament 2x1000pts




I'm considering entering a two-player tournament. Each team of two shares a FOC, each player needs to field at least one HQ och one Troop choice. Unique characters may not be fielded twice in the same army. "Friendly units" are all units in the teams armies.

So, this opens up a lot of possible combos, perhaps the first to come to mind being Blood Angel's Apothecaries. Fateweaver deserves some mention as well. Daemons only having to field one troop might have some merit.

My teammate has alot of Marines as well as some Orcs. I have Chaos Daemons, Tau, Imperial Guard, GK and some Marines.

My first idea was:

Fateweaver

6 Bloodcrushers
6 Fiends
6 Fiends

5 Plaguebearers

Then add, maybe Deathwing?

Belial

5 Termies, 4 SS/TH, CML, Apot
5 Termies, 4 SS/TH, CML
5 Termies, 4 SS/TH, CML

Leaves 135 points, It's a pity a Teleport homer won't work for Daemons :/

This has the potential to land 5 Terminators with re-rollable 3++ or 2+, followed by FnP. Try to kill them ;)

Another idea I had was fielding big orc mobs with BA priests, but I don't think we have enough models to field that.

I guess you could yes cherry pick good things on their own from two codexes. Actually, IG and GK might work.

Coteaz

2 x Purifiers (5), 2 Psycannons

5 x Acolytes (3) w. Psybolt Razorbacks

2 x Psyflemen

960

and

Primaris Psyker

Infantry Platoon
PCS, Chimera (ML/HF)
2 x Infantry Squad, Chimeras (ML/HF)

3 x Vendettas, Hvy Bolters (on 2 of em)

Hydras (3)

Maybe IG could be switched to DA, then you could field 3 Psyflemens in the GK list and use:

Belial

Riflemen

5 Termies, 4 SS/TH, CML, Apot, Standard

Land Speeder Typhoon w. MMs (2)
Land Speeder Typhoon (2)
Land Speeder Typhoon (2)

You'd have a somewhat nasty CC unit.

Dropping in Arjac, with Logan and MM-Long Fangs could be interesting with say Apothecary, Chaplain and a Blood Angels HQ. Gaah, the possibilities are endless!
