So i am starting a space wolve army and it is going to start out grey hunter and drop pod heavy. Now my question is (because i am not familiar) i am assuming the grey hunters box will not have enough bits for all the guys to have bolters with two hands. Now it is probably a little ocd... but i love the codex i have been reading but model wise i would just love to have two handed bolters. so the question is if i bought a tactical squad and while painting i did the grey hunter's colors would it look alright??? still space wolve ish?? I wanted to know if any of you veteran space wolve players know this or maybe i am just completely off with the grey hunters box and should just get that anyway! please and thanks for your help!!!

They would probably look a lot different than regular grey hunters, but you could always consider combining a tact set with a grey hunters box, or even 2 grey hunters boxes
though there might even be enough bolters in the kit, i have no idea

Hmmmm a lot different :( im kinda thinking that too. i do really wonder if there are enough bits......

There's nothing wrong with using Tacticals as Grey Hunters.

If you buy a GH box and a tactical box you will have MORE than enough bolters and SW bits to make 20 very wolfy marines. The GH box is chock full of wolfy bits.

O.o really?! so i want to buy around five boxes of grey hunters... if i split that do you think 2 grey hunter boxes and three regular marine boxes would be enough?????

I would buy 3 Wolves and 2 Space Marine.

Do you think that will be enough arms for them to all have 2 handed bolters?

More than enough is my guess.

I ran through my SW bits looking for bolters; I counted 5 versions holding the bolter with two hands, and four holding it with one hand. I wouldn't be surprised if I missed one, you do get a lot of extra stuff.

yes okay awesome very glad i asked this before hand!!! Thanks dakka!!!
