Hi folks, not sure if this is the correct place.

I've been doing space wolves for about a year now, I don't play any 40k but just like the painting side of it.
My problem is, what are grey hunter supposed to be modelled with, a close combat weapon, a bolter or both?

So far I only put them with a bolter, I thought blood claws had both close combat and bolt pistol.
What the difference between the grey hunters and blood claws, beside a different coloured shoulder pad.

Sorry if this a stupid question but I don't want to model any more until I know what goes on what model.

Thanks in advance people.

If you check the Codex entry the Grey Hunters come with Bolter, CCW AND bolt pistol.

So you can model them however you want.

Blood Claws have Bolt Pistol and CCW but no Bolter.

Quite frankly as is I do not see the need for Blood Claws...ever.

Erik is completely correct, they have Bolter, Bolt Pistol and Chainsword/Combat Knife. If they are upgraded to a Meltagun/Plasmagun/Flamer, they still retain the Bolt Pistol and Close Combat Weapon.

Exactly as the other have mentioned, grey huners can be kitted out to have bolter, CCW, pistol

It's similar to Death Guard (which I collect).
I have given some a bolter, some a CCW & pistol & the rest bolters & CCWs to show the mix.
I don't think anyone will be upset with this & say I have to have all 3 on every model. If someone does I just won't play them.
As long as the model resembles what they can have & have the right special weapon or other upgrade shown then you should be fine.
