I submitted my army list for blog wars 9 a few days ago and thought I would share it with you all. As you have guessed by the title I am taking my space wolves and a bunch of thunderwolves :)
The caveat for blog wars is you have to take a special character, and Arjac will be mine. I will be using the company of the great wolf detachment to give my wolf guard and TWC +1 weapon skill and enable me to take an extra elite slot. I have not playtested the list much (read one game :) ) but I am hoping it will be a fun list to play with and against.

The idea is the melta grey hunters and dread (or terminators in the drop pod depending on the opponent) drop down turn one for a tasty alpha strike and to distract attention away from my thunderwolves who will be moving very quickly up the board for a turn two charge. For objective games I will play a bit more cagey and use my drop pods for positioning and my TWC for speed objective grabbing. Pretty simple but hopefully I will get some fun and bloody games with it. What are your thoughts?
NafNaf out!
Great looking army! I like the look of your space wolves and the liberal gore spread about. Good luck and post some army pics!
ReplyDeleteThanks Joe. I will get some pics done before I box it all up for the tourney (and of course I am going to try and get plenty from the event :) )
DeleteMay battle commence - let's hope we get drawn together, should be a bloody game if we do!
ReplyDeleteLol it most certainly will. I have a feeling my thunderwolves wont like all the poison coming their way though :D. I do hope we get drawn against each other, it would be a blast :)
DeleteI don't know anything about wolves armies...but boy is that army pretty!
ReplyDeleteCheers Greg :). I will post an army pic soon, as my G&G battle boards arrived today, so I want to get some photos on them
