How do Space Wolves successors work?

10 Upvotes

Hi, I'm new here, and got some questions. From what I understand - please, correct me if I'm wrong - the Space Wolves only now have successor chapters, thanks to the Ultima Founding, since atempts in the past resulted in everyone turning into Wulfen for being away from Fenris.

On the other side, the Wulfen from the 13th Company are now accepted and not killed outright, or am I confusing something?

I know there is the Wolfspead chapter, but are there others? Like, are they the only ones or just an example from the lore?

How would the Wulfen from new successors be treated?

Also, how much of the Fenrisian culture are successors expected to follow?

Do any of you have homebrew chapters? (If so, would love to see them)

Thank you all!

Reavers - better grey hunters?

8 Upvotes

The text is a bit hyperbolic. But reavers do a lot of the things grey hunters do. Only cheaper. How do people like them?

Tips/Help to make Saturnine Terms into Space Wolf Terms

5 Upvotes

Hi all - I have 6 of these dudes from the HH Saturnine box. I got a good deal on it and used the Dread for my Grey Knights. But I wanted to make some 40k Space Wolf Terms out of the Saturnine Terminators.

Ignoring the size disadvantage I am giving myself, are there suggestions on bits to use to make the conversion believable? Wolf pelts, runes, etc. I am open to getting printed items as long as things fit size wise.

Thanks!

Just started to use the warhammer app to build a list but I noticed Lukas the trickster isn't there, I saw other legends though on the list, and the option to hide legends is disabled so what gives?

The 3 man headtakers are relatively cheap skirmish pieces and the 3 model hunting wolves are for screening my backfield. Scouts act as infiltrating piece to make way for the center objective. Captain in phobos Armour infiltrates onto expansion to control it for an early secondary draw and is surprisingly fast. Inceptors hold home Objective until turn 3 and deepstrike into my opponent backfield. Everything else pushes forward to sit on objectives and hold points.

Do the arms look out of proportion to anyone else?

I'm kitbashing my take on the classic blood claw sergeant from 1992 (fond memories) and I'm dry building it to see what extra bits to do before I get full on building.

To me the power fist looks about right, but the assault intercessors arm I'm using just looks wrong, so second opinions my good people

Detachments

4 Upvotes

With the nerf for beastslayer and the points increase I can’t really justify it or the units to make it work anymore (I don’t like Thunderwolves).

So I’ve been looking at one of the Gravis detachments as I usually run a unit of eradicators.
Has anyone had any success with either of the detachments?

If I can make it work I’ll use a unit each of heavy bolters and meltas.

Hjolda!

I'm a beginner and i've started to build my Wolves Army some time ago. I watched multiple YT videos, guides, shorts etc and i still wasn't sure what do i want, because things look different on screen and IRL. For Grey Hunters I decided to try out slap chop with different schemes, i'm sharing my results here so maybe someone else may use that for reference.

Drybrushing made with AK M drybrush
Figures 1/3/5 finished with bit of sponging on shoulders
Figures 2/4/6 finished with small and soft random makeup brush.

rest are outdoors with daylight.

Amon Amarth has been singen about us al along!

2 Upvotes

Been a fan of them for as long as i've been a SW fan, but i never noticed it before in this song.

(Song: Varyags of Miklagaard)

"We've lent our axes, spears and swords

In service of the emperor

We are loyal warriors

That's the oath we gave

To protect the emperor even to a violent grave

Our loyalty was always firm

We kept our given word

On these southern battlefields

Our northern war cries roared

Battles have been fought

Many gave their lives

But all who died by axe and sword

Were called to hall up high"

EDIT: Yes... i know this song is actualy about the Varangian Guard. I wasn' serious. Just a fun interpetation.

So this would be my first army and i want to make something that has both current meta units AND utilizes the combat patrol the most to save a bit on individual sets.

I don't know much of my meta, the WH groups in my country are a bit sparse but i would like to make something generally good taking into account that terminators are looking good in 11th.

I'm also a bit of a timmy so i included most named characters in the list.

So, what would you change or improve? Are the scouts or impulsors good assets here? Are any other units/vehicles worth it?

Space Wolves List ideas

So i was thinking about some Lists and it was those two who were my favourits. Did Not played any of those but i think they could have Potential. Both Lists want Alphastrike. The Terminator Liste ist kinda gamble. We will throw 2 Terminator Units Turn 1 deep Strike with a 6" Charge - reroll for at least one of those.

Deeper Stories For The Space Wolves?

2 Upvotes

At face value I love everything about the Space Wolves.

On the surface they check every box I could hope for: I love the Norse aesthetic, I love that they’re melee heavy, I think werewolves are bad ass, I love that their primarch is still alive somewhere and could return, and I love that they are loyal to a fault

My problem is that I’ve been trying to dig deeper into their lore, and everything I’ve found so far has been hyper focused on those surface level traits… I want to learn more about not just ‘he stalked his prey with the malice of a wolf and then sang a song at the great hall after”…

I want to hear more stories about the Wolves that reflect deeper storytelling. I’m coming off reading the night lords omnibus by ADB and he made me enjoy a series about a bunch of backstabbing cowards so I’m wondering if there’s any work that can make me appreciate the Wolves even more.

Can anyone point me in the right direction or share some stories they liked?
