I've no more info than the following:

I'm still betting Wulfen. I don't see them giving up a Dreadnought for a potential Astartes hero to a Wolf. Even considering fenrisian wolves are mutated marines, they don't treat them with the same level of respect.

If it resembles my Wolfnaught. Then Mattward just steals my ideas.

if the give a space wolf murderous rage thats insulting. Call it what it is, Wulfen Affliction/ Mark of the Wulfen.

Also, WHY NO WULFEN? =( sad me has

Does this mean that Ward is writing the codex? Or have I missed that somewhere in this thread?

No idea. I find blaming all stupid ideas on Ward to be a generally reasonable policy!

A chariot doesn't actually sound too bad, especially if they make it available to normal Wolf Lords as well. It fits SW more than anyone else, and makes sense with the new 7th Ed chariot rules.

Yes, in all seriousness, as a daemons player I've been in a position to take advantage of the new chariot rules more than most since 7th, and if they let Logan keep his 2+ (Does he have EW too?) and make the chariot at least AV11 all round, it'll be a bear of a unit to deal with.

Looks like Logan Grimnar might be getting a new model after all. He's vanished from the webstore (GB). Has he disappeared from the other countries stores?

So has Ulrik the Slayer and Ragnar Blackmane. I'm not seeing the point you're trying to make here..

So Murderfang is a better Furioso dred than anything in the entire BA Chapter?

Huh.

Until the BA get their new model, which is a Terminator, inside a Centurion, inside a giant Furioso Dreadnought.

But there's an element of cross over in the nature of both chapters (albeit for different reasons) so I guess not stepping on each other's toes is tricky.

Look out for Baal Murderbats in the next BA book too..

Six HQ's? Seriously? I'm all for epic heroes and stuff but what game short of an apocalypse match would you even be able to fit that many into?

I love the new Bjorn model but for some reason I can't stop imagining him with a cane and pimp hat to go with all that bling. And is it bad I kind of really, really want to see what this "Murderfang" will look like? Because he sounds like an absolute nightmare in close combat.

Little gutted about the GH if that is true but an extra two points is still cheaper than Codex Marines so not too bad right?

Idk about you, but 6 rune priests in a tournament (assuming we kept the 24" possible deny) will be a huge hassle for other armies especially with a Level 2

With that sweet Logan ride on the way, the Wolves will no longer be the Sky Warriors...but the FLY Warriors.

That is a fact.

We don't have the 24 deny right now...

Blood guns too, or some sort of weaponized Black Rage psychic thing.

Supposed rules for Murderfang, apologies if already posted somewhere.

Equipped with "Murderclaws"...judging by the names, have they snuck an Ork unit into this book?

Dedicated transport Stormwolves?

Oh crap.

For a special rule called Murderlust, its effects are pretty tame.

Oh no... no no no... don't do that. Don't put those those words together and into reality.

STAHP.

Hmm... with rules like that, it'd only really be useful in a pod. Even then it'll do nothing on arrival and your opponent will have a turn to mitigate its impact.

Could certainly be a fun unit if you fully commit to a pod alpha-strike list and send him in with the first wave, but I'm hoping that the actual rules give him at least a multi-melta or something.

I think he could be pretty powerful considering he gets like 7-9 attacks on the charge at str 8 ap 2

(3 base, two weapons, rage, rampage(d3))

Mastercrafted+Shred too, so pretty likely to hit most attacks against most targets, and likely to wound most things effortlessly.

Murderfang armed with Murderclaws and having Murderlust.

Oh Jesus...

People brought it upon themselves by making fun of Wolf Wolfborn riding on a wolf with Wolf Claws.

Now begins the age of Murderfang.

I like the name, a lot honestly. I'm picturing heavy metal playing in his drop pod as he crashes into the ground.

Murderfang is fine. Murderfang armed with Murderclaws whilst in the grips of Murderlust isn't.

Agreed. Murderlust is just lazy, and Murderfang/Murderclaw is all but interchangeable.

I've spotted a lot of Stormwolf/Stormfang and even Stormclaw mix ups over the past three weeks or so, this will be no different.

I know the remaining wolfy words aren't exactly intimidating, (tail... pelt... fur... pups), but surely GW can do a little better than the rumoured Murderfang trio above, (don't mind the Stormwolf/Stormfang so much, being a shared sprue and all). Then again, the above has come from a quick glance and memory combination so perhaps not set in stone just yet. In a strictly vernacular sense I wouldn't call it murder on the table top, nothing about those rules screams premeditated and calculated murder to me!

You're just making him sound crazy now. Really he puts his Murderpants on one leg at a time just like the rest of us.
