Hi, Return to 40k after 2 years , I played chaos space marine and Dark Eldar before, now this time I am building a new space wolves army
Some advice please ?

I got a start collecting box and saga of the beast

Now, 500 points (patrol detachments)
Wolf lord with jump pack and hammer/shield
2 *5 Intercessors squad with power fist/thunder hammer
5 infiltator

750 points
Add 2 impulsors with shield dome

1000 points
Add Ragnar Blackmane and a wolf priest with jump pack and become a battalions detachment !

1500 points (buy 1-2 indomitus box and 10terminators)

Add 10 wolf-guard terminators with shield and some combi-weapon and chainsfist combination
Add another infiltrator squad
Switch one intercessor squared to 3 bladeguard veteran(BGV) and a Judiciar

2000 points (buy a box of wulfen)
Add another bladeguard veterans
Add a unit of 5 wulfen with TH/SS
Add a squad of outrider
Say goodbye to intercessor and get a unit of incursor

So the final list look like
HQ
Ragnar Blackmane
Wolf priest with jump pack and power fist
Wolf lord with jump pack and TH/SS

Elite
3 BGV
3 BGV
Judiciar
5 Wulfen with TH/SS
10 wolf-guard terminators with SS and some mix of weapon

Troop
3* 5 infiltrators
5 incursors

Fast
3 Outriders

Transport : 2 impulsors with shield dome

How does that plan look like?

Great plan to build up. I wish I had structured out my thoughts on buying kits.. I kinda just buy when I see them. Leads to an interesting army list on my end.

I'm not the most experienced SW player, so I'd be happy to have my ideas here questioned, but I think there's merit in keeping the intercessors to put into the impulsors. the Incursors and infiltrators both have 'concealed position' which lets them deploy anywhere on the battlefield without being 9" near enemy units. Whereas with the intercessors you can load them into the Impulsors and replicate the powerful "rhino rushes" of old.

Other than that:

Ragnar is a beast of a model, best character to take! The two jump packs will cause some fun chaos. Are the outriders thunderwolves?
