This thing is chock full of great fluff, retracting the battles on Prospero, and of course the Great Crusade and eventual Heresy of Horus. It also goes into length on the venerable Fortress of the Fang, Bjorn, the Wulfen, Leman Russ, and all the great (and soon to be great) Wolf Lords. I really enjoyed reading up on all the characters, and seeing how the developed though 5th edition an all. The book also featured war-gear cards like Nite Wing (Njal’s Psyber Eagle) the Wolf Helm, and Frostfang, just to name a few.

There was also a battle report between Andy Chambers, and Jervis Johnson that according to the book was part of their development of both second edition and the Wolf book. It took five hours to complete from deployment to dice down. Yeah, for psychic phases- I definitely do not miss those. The back of the book featured all of the models available at the time for these guys, and as you can see from the pictures of the tanks, they are definitely old school. A few Fridays ago I featured one of the from late Second Edition.

8th Edition Space Marine Codex

It’s worth a look if you weren’t playing back then. Forge Wold has very much captured the look and feel of these old models with their new “per-heresy” releases. Check out some sweet art, and photos from the book below. Have a great weekend guys, and remember to get your game on!

This is still very much a WIP, please have patience while I finalize the unit analysis and tactica article portions of the article. Thanks for reading! Introduction The Space Wolves are a specialist Space Marine Chapter that offer a lot of unique aspects and fluff over your standard Codex Chapters. Loyal to the Imperium that they aspire to protect, they have fought loyalists, traitor and xenos alike in their fight for their ideals. Having largely ignored the Codex Astartes that every other Chapter adhere to, the Space Wolves shun the traditional methods in favour of working as a pack throughout a marine’s career. Instead of starting as a scout, a Space Wolf begins their service as a Blood Claw. A young aspirant tends to be a bit hot headed and will shun ranged firepower and instead favour hand to hand combat primarily.

Once proving themselves in the heat of battle and tempering themselves the Space Wolf will be promoted to the Grey Hunters, the main force of the chapter. It is here that the Space Wolves show their grit and hope to be spotted by their Wolf Lord to be promoted to his own personal bodyguard and veterans of the Chapter, the Wolf Guard. Several distinct other roles exist within the Chapter - the grizzled Long Fangs hoist their heavy weapons on to the field of battle, Wolf Scouts can spring traps by appearing behind enemy lines. Largely Space Wolves can choose the same options as their Codex Astartes loving brethren. Like every Space Marine army, Space Wolves are forgiving for a new player. Their higher than most toughness coupled with a good armour save means you can take hits while their ‘And they shall know no fear’ special rule ensures you don’t suffer leadership failures in the same way as other armies do.

Space Wolves offer a very flexible approach to gamers that despite what the internet forums will tell you, can actually win without relying heavily on the meta game. Pros and Cons Pros. Space Wolves have arguably the finest basic troop choice in the game. The Grey Hunter squad offers a versatile special weapons platform that can be deployed via drop pod or in a vehicle for maximum damage.

Alternatively they can sit on an objective and give as good as they get. You get to choose between a 10 man squad in a dedicated transport with two special weapons or sticking 9 with a single special weapon and a wolf guard in with a combi weapon so don’t be afraid of trying both out and seeing which you like more! Alternatively you can footslog and thus get all that lovely specialist weaponry on board. ‘Counter Attack’ is an army wide ability – being charged suits the Space Wolves against armies with defensive grenades so don’t be afraid of a round of shooting with those bolt guns and taking a charge. Having the bolt pistol of course means you can get in another round of shooting and then hit your opponents close combat unit that hopefully you've just weakened!. Long Fangs are arguably the finest heavy weapons squad in the game. Up to 5 heavy weapons that have their own unique split fire rule means you can dish out a lot of punishment.

The preferred option is missile launchers as you have the frak/krak opportunity but don’t be afraid to take a lascannon or plasma cannon to make sure you hurt what you need to hurt. Wolf Guard terminators offer the sort of customisation that make every terminator using army jealous. Not being constrained to every model having the same loadout is hugely helpful and having a mish mash of weapon options means you can get the job done and still have a role to play in the battle. Don’t fret! Wolf Guard are also useful in power armour form. A higher leadership and the opportunity for combi weapons means that there’s always a case to be made for ditching that free special weapon and favouring a Wolf Guard to lead that squad in the transport.

If you’re a footslogger like me then 3 deadly special weapon opportunities still brings a lot of benefits. Our HQ section has a lot of options but it’s hard to ignore the Rune Priest. With some of the strongest powers in the game at your disposal, you’ll be enjoying ignoring the randomness of the 6th edition powers in favour of blasting your opponent off the board with Living Lightning or ruining low initiative units day with Jaws of the World Wolf. Space Wolf fluff is full of silly little tit bits and as a heavily supported Chapter you’ll enjoy them for years to come. Units such as the Lone Wolf and optional upgrades like the Sagas enable you to make your own Space Wolf army and characters to enjoy using during your games.

Hobby-wise our colors are relatively simple to paint and our new models are easier to assemble than ever. Blood Claws, Grey Hunters and Wolf Guard in power armour are all made using the standard Space Wolf pack box. Cons. We lack an effective aerial presence. As a 5th edition codex we have been largely untouched by the changes to 6th edition.

You are going to be relying on allies or an aegis defence line to cope with these changes though! A free roaming flyer without any anti-air can ruin your game, plan accordingly. While you get a lot of nifty tools, Space Wolves can suffer from a lack of ranged weaponry.

Typical load outs will be a lot of Grey Hunters backed up by Long Fangs. If the Long Fangs lose line of sight or are destroyed you will have a very restricted shooting range. Our elites slot suffered from the change to 6th edition. As you can no longer assault from reserves, Wolf Scouts are no longer as handy as they once were. Dreadnoughts and especially Venerable Dreadnoughts are very easy to destroy. Our fast attack slot is nearly empty. Blood Claws – while scouts aren’t exactly great in other Chapters armies, Blood Claws for their points cost are not great options.

Their rules and story is fun but they are so situational that getting them in to assault range can mean there’s not a lot of the unit left to have an impact. Game-wise, we have many very expensive units and upgrades, and if you are not careful you may end up overspending on elite units and HQ and neglecting your scoring core units.
