Well I've been debating on what armor to give my Wolf Lord for my chapter, my choices are...

Runic Armor - 2+/5+ inv. vs (edit: physic attacks) (+20 pts) (Belt of russ for 4+ inv for 25 pts)
or
Terminator Armor - 2+/5+ inv., Relentless universal rule, cannot make sweeping advances (+40 pts)

Reason I'm asking is because I just recently got the SW battleforce and I got plenty of bits left over that I can make a Wolf Lord, but I also have an GK terminator that I've slightly converted. So I'm pitching the question to you to see which one would be a better choice.

You don't get an invulnerable save from Runic Armor. You need to buy a Belt of Russ to get a 4++. I like Lords in power/runic armor, so I can get a bolt pistol and have extra frostblade attacks. It's all up to what you want to arm him with. Personally I think Terminator armor works real well with lightning claws.

The 5+ Save is vs Psichic Powers.
You couls go with Runic Armor, Storm Shield and a Frost Blade.

Then you can still get your Sweeping Advance and be as tough as a Terminator

Yeah I'm probably gonna go with the Runic armor with the belt of russ, although the Storm shield sounds nice with a 3+ inv. save
