To the best of my knowldege (at work cant look at BRB) you cant mix between codex powers and BRB powers can you?

I would suggest dropping the dread and putting one of the Lone Wolfs in his Drop pod, then using the rest of the points for Rhinos or scouts.

GH are some of the best infantry in the game but Foot slogging is foot slogging and a good way to get put down

why not do two squads with PG and two with MG mixing and matching works out a bit, but it seems to work out when you focus your efforts by squad, that way you arent popping off shots from Plasma weapons at something you need to remove with Melta and losing the opportunity to do more damage with bolters and PG shots.


like it other wise! good 1500 build.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576194/6479262.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576194/6479262.page GMT Space Wolves - 1500 Points The Rune Priests should be giving your Long Fangs prescience, you need AA, (I recommend an Aegis Line with an Icarus Lascannon, manned by one of your Rune Priests,) your Grey Hunters need Drop Pods, and if the Dread is going for Close Quarters you should go with a Heavy Flamer.
Lone Wolves are fun, but I'd go with just one and skip the Fenrisian Wolves. The extra points are nearly enough for 4 Drop Pods, for your Grey Hunters.
Also, focus their use. 2 Plasma Guns or 2 Melta Guns, otherwise one weapon is being wasted.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576194/6479717.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576194/6479717.page GMT Space Wolves - 1500 Points SW and brb powers. Its in the FAQ. You can choose two from the SW book or take two rolls from the brb (still only mastery level 1 though.).

As these guys have said, choose one special weapon and stick with it per squad. I would drop the dreadnought for drop pods for your gh. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576194/6479896.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576194/6479896.page GMT Re:Space Wolves - 1500 Points TDA, because of jaww you gonna need it on the front lines and the 5++ is a good idea (i know, it isnt 3++, but is better than nothing). you could choose another power instead of living lighting, if you join him with grey hunters, you could use storm caller to get a mobile 5+ cover save, is just an option
For the elites, i love to use wolfguard on TDA, i feel they make a better work than a dreadnought, you want assault cannon, you got it, you need more dakka, you can give them combi bolters, just picture this, an assault cannon and 4 combi plasmas droping on a drop pod behind enemy lines, epic troll for sure , or just for fun and more troll epicness, agains any infantry army, pum 4 combi-flamer and one heavy flamer, i dontk thik that anything going to survive a ton of wounds, even 2+ going to suffer.
One lone wolf is more than enought, why? because they are slow, they need to borrow the transport for some other unit, that reduce their mobility, so the best is to have one and depploy it in an strategic place, his place is near MC and vehicles and always away from big units, like ig or ork boyz, but bring one to the table, the configuration you gave him is a good one still.
As was tell before, keep the grey hunters with the same pair of weapons, this way you could make different settings and give them different roles on the battlefield, you want to hunt MC, use 2 plasma rifles, you want to take down a unit of infantry, 2 flamers are the best tool, you are facing heavy vehicles, the 2 meltas are the way, in this way you could customaze your grey hunter unit, and if oyu want a more cc them, give them a power weapon or a powr fist, couple with the mark of the wulfen, here the must have is the wolf standard.
The long fangs, well what i can said about them, they are a good choice always, not a must have but a good choice.
Just to finish, if you want more C&C oriented army use TWC, givi it a try, a unit of three with two ss and one power fist it´s crazy when they reach the enemy lines ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576194/6480109.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576194/6480109.page GMT Re:Space Wolves - 1500 Points http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576194/6480473.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576194/6480473.page GMT Re:Space Wolves - 1500 Points

It's good, I would put the grey hunters in drop pods, take out one rune priest no runic armour just chooser and divination attached to the long fangs behinde an aegis manning the Icarus or quad gun. Add in a wolf guard drop pod with termies with power axes a heavey flamer one power fist and the rest combi plasmas, then you've got some punch.


At least with three drop pods, in this way you get 2 drop pods on firts turn. The two rune priest are right, and the runic armour, even behing the aegis line is a necessity, the rune priest on TDA could choose 2 biomancy powers, hoping iron arm and endurance, coupled with the wolfguard on a drop pod and you have a power unit.
With the wolf guard 5 TDA wolf guard, one with cyclone missile launcher and 4 combi flamers, one chainfist and power swords, then you join the wolf guard with the cyclone to one long fang pack and the others with the rune priest in a dro pod
If drop one rune priest he could use a wolf lord on TDA, wolf claw, SS, saga of the bear and sen him with the wolf guard, or more cheap, use a wolf priest with plasma pistol, runic armour and saga of the huter (for the cover saves) and equip the wolf guard with combiplasmas, the Priest giving PE to repeat the get hots.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576194/6482312.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576194/6482312.page GMT
