HQ - Rune Priest w/Murderous Hurricane & Jaws = 100
HQ - Rune Priest w/Living Lightning, Jaws, & Plasma Pistol = 115
HQ - Wolf Priest = 100
HQ - Ragnar Blackmane = 240

ELI - Wolf Scouts w/Melta Bombs, 2 w/Pwr Weapons. (Led by a WG w Pwr Fist) = 168

ELI - Wolf Guard Pack (10 total with 6 leading packs) The remaining 4 w/Pwr Fist & Combi-Melta X2, Close Combat Weapon & Combi-Melta X1, Close Combat Weapon & Bolt Pistol X1. Pack mounted in a Drop Pod = 162

Troop - Grey Hunters (8) w/Mark of the Wulfen, Melta Gun, Wolf Standard, Pwr Sword. Led by a Wolf Guard w/Pwr Fist & Combi-Melta. Pack mounted in a Rhino w/Ex Armor = 258

Troop - Blood Claws (13) w/Flamer, Pwr Fist. Led by a Wolf Guard w/Pwr Fist = 258

Heavy - Land Raider Crusader w/Multa Melta, TL Assault Cannon, Ex Armor - 275

Heavy - Long Fangs (5 plus pack leader) 5 w/Missile Launchers. Led by a Wolf Guard w/Bolt Pistol, Close Combat Weapon. Pack mounted in a Razorback with Lascannon & TL Plasma Guns = 223

Heavy - Whirlwind = 85

Total = 2500

Basically, one Rune Priest comes down with the remainder of the Wolf Guard in a Drop Pod. Another RP will either hang back with the Long Fangs or go in with a pack of Grey Hunters while Ragnar, a Wolf Priest, and the Blood Claws are in the LRC. I go round and round with taking the extra armor off on the Rhinos, but it has been beneficial to me in the past.

Thoughts?

I'm not a big fan of giving up 3 kill points per vehicle in mission # 3, but if that means I'll face a lot less mech I-Guard lists, than so be it...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/294208/1562967.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/294208/1562967.page GMT My tentative 2500 pt Space Wolf 'Ard Boyz list

if you want to be competitive you are going to have to change all of your heavies to long fangs, and drop the rhinos in favor of more troops in drop pods (provided your TO does not count them as 3KP each)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/294208/1562974.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/294208/1562974.page GMT Re:My tentative 2500 pt Space Wolf 'Ard Boyz list KP for the last mission right?

That statement is rather, IMO, wrong.

How is he going to be more 'competitive' by changing to Drop Pods just for the last mission? He will have less KPs, but # of KPs is useless if you can't kill your opponent.

And just as a reference, my WH/Sisters army that I'm bringing is about 48 kps. If you can't win the first two missions, the # of KPs for the third is irrelevant. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/294208/1562985.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/294208/1562985.page GMT My tentative 2500 pt Space Wolf 'Ard Boyz list
I basically know the big tourney guys in my area will bring non MEQ armies. One guy is bringing a "Big Bug" list, another is using a mostly all-walking Ork army, ect. The Whirlwind for 85 points was a stretch for me, but I figured that for the points it was a solid option. If I change anything, I debate dropping the Whirlwind and the extra armor on the Rhinos to add a 2nd Long Fang pack. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/294208/1563036.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/294208/1563036.page GMT My tentative 2500 pt Space Wolf 'Ard Boyz list

IMO this is better for a few reasons:

Long Fangs (with 4ML, or 5 if you have the points) are cheap

They can do light and medium tank hunting

They can drop 5 templates on footsloggers(vs the one that half the time goes wild from a whirlwind)

They can insta gib feel no pain marines like plague Marines and FNP BA assault troops and Death company.

And only 1 KP for third mission]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/294208/1563060.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/294208/1563060.page GMT Re:My tentative 2500 pt Space Wolf 'Ard Boyz list http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/294208/1563179.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/294208/1563179.page GMT My tentative 2500 pt Space Wolf 'Ard Boyz list http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/294208/1563636.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/294208/1563636.page GMT Re:My tentative 2500 pt Space Wolf 'Ard Boyz list http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/294208/1563816.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/294208/1563816.page GMT
