Space Wolves do wear helmets...

Warboss Imbad Ironskull appears to contradict you, sir, in stating that most of them do not.

So that they can smell things better.

Don't SM helmets have autosenses?

Key word is most. Which means that some do.

You Space Wolf guys really crack me up.

Some SM sergeants don't wear helmets either.

Yes but in that example they are the FEW where as MOST of the space wolves care not for helmets

Also, I'm fairly sure that's just a modeling convention to easily differentiate the sergeant from the rest of the squad.

As I said, if "most" Space Wolves really don't wear helmets, argument's over, they're dumb. Risking taking a stray round in the teeth just so you can tell if your buddy's angry or constipated or whatever by how he smells is dumb. End of argument.

They carry their helmets with them so they can put it on buit they also use their senses to find enemies, co-ordinate pack movements and judge how far an enemy is as well as where they have gone. Overall for SW it's easier to carry their helmets and put them on if they need to rather than wear them all the time.

I feel like a lot of people in this thread just make things up as things occur to them.

He's right. There's mention in pretty much every single one of the SW novels that they wear their helmets into battle or carry them - they then remove/don them as needed.

Can a mod close this thread or something now? It's just getting plain silly.

Then we're back to square one. I imagine most marines don't wear their helmets when they're not in combat. Again, this started because some dude said most Space Wolves don't wear helmets. You guys need to get on the same page.

All this information sounds new to you because you haven't read more than one SW source.

You're confusing me with the other guy.

It isn't made up though.
If you have read the Space Wolf series you should know that.

I read Dan Abnett's Lone Wolves thing. They fight without helmets in that.

Yes, I think this thread has fulfilled its usefulness and should be locked now.
