1850 Wolves, CAD+formations

[Deleted]

Hey all,

threw together a Space wolf list that is my new "work towards" list(as far as purchases). You can probably guess after what I list the models I need. STILL haven't gotten in a game since before Curse of the Wulfen dropped due to moving, and the associated struggles of being a functioning adult who can't play 40k all day(*tear*)

CAD

HQ

Wolf Priest- vanilla(110)- for Feel no pain 6+ to his squad

Troops

1x 5man blood claws squad- vanilla, razorback with lascannon

1x 5 man blood claws squad- vanilla, drop pod

Formations

Wulfen Murderpack

5x Wulfen Squads

    -4x Stormshield+thunderhammer, 1x pair of frost claws

WyrdStorm Brotherhood

2x Rune Priest, ML 2

2x Rune Priest, ML1 with melta bombs

So the idea is, take A squad of drop pod blood claws, attach all the rune priests and Wolf Priest to the squad to drop, and turn 1 drop a psychic bomb with 4d6 shots. Hopefully the wulfen, who are moving twice on a 3+ because there are 5 squads(need a 7 on a D6, but +4 modifier due to number of squads) can catch up and "save" the psychic bomb or at least get in buff range.

Other blood claws are just obsec fodder that can get a nice buff from being around wulfen.

Likely to have 8 mobile units(9 counting pod). 5 wulfen, 2 blood claw groups, razorback. Functionally for splitting off with characters though I could have as many as 15 units(single man character units) counting the pod.

Edit: posting to hear thoughts. Not trying to work in allies at this point(have several knights and vanilla marines) and not really playing with new wolf detachment because battlescribe hasn't worked out the kinks yet and I'm lazy/at work(no codex).

The Wulfen themselves aren't affected by the Curse of the Wulfen table, so they can't get the double move thing.

That said, you're actually getting 5d6 shots out of Living Storm, and the other Priests can still cast as well. Maybe try to scrape up some Points for the Helm of Durfast for the one you plan on using Living Storm with for re-rolls to Hit.

Wait what? For some reason I had it in my head they aren't affected by the wulfen table but they specifically got the move buff in that formation.

Good advice on the helm, easy to free that up.

EDIT: that being the case prob dropping 1-2 squads of wulfen for the fenresian wolf formation. Maybe more blood claws too.

Nah. That would be really cool, but unfortunately, they just get extra Attacks on 6s to Hit.

Yeah, i had been reading it(badly) as if they were the ONLY ones to get the double move benefit. Like, they don't get chart benefit EXCEPT:two bullet points.
