On a Canoptek Spyder's Waiting List



Butte County, CA

I have no experience running Space Wolves, but they are going to be my second army (starting it once I reach 1000 points of so of 'Crons). From the research I have done, this looks like a good list. Includes basically everything I plan on including in my early SW list. Can't go wrong with Meltas. Only thing I might recommend is going with a second unit of Long Fangs over the Wolf Guard in your 1000 point army. From what I have read they are a very effective unit and you might benefit more from two units of them. Once again this is all speculation and based on research since I have not tabled a SW army at this point. I would love an update as to how this list turns out. Keep us in the loop.

With your GH's always take two of the same gun, to maximize effectiveness.

Long fangs work best with all the same gun, or 3/2 split, or a 4/1 to split fire. All bolters, 4 missiles 1lascannon, or 3 missile 2 las are all good in different ways.

The wolf guard could trim some upgrades and just get terminator armor, so they get some swag free. Dual claws is ok, as well as THSS, MOTW is good for a non terminator guard. Power fist is good, frost axe is not. I assume your putting your priest here? Consider running your priest with the fangs, or at least having the option. Also, wg in a pod benefit from combi weapons to shoot stuff as they can't assault the turn they arrive.

The most important rule of 40K-Page XVII of the 6th edition rulebook, the figure at the top right of the page. "Shake hands with your opponent and thank them for a good battle and fun experience." Then go out for a beer.
