Thunder Wolf Cavalry (200pts)

Generally Speaking, when shooting I hope that many Grav and melta from Scarblade is quite capable to shot down nasty things like Wraith Knights, IKs, Stormsurge and Ripetide. Especially the Command Squad is will be the main firebase, which will be joined by the Chapter Master (to tank wounds like a boss for almost everything short of 6s D hit) and the Libby with Hunter's Eye to give all those grav ignore cover . While the Wolves will provide serious assault threat that cannot be ignored.

Looking for any and all comments and ideas from everyone. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/697364/8793040.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/697364/8793040.page GMT Re:[1850] - Astartes - Cavalry in 40k

Why would you run so thunderwolves ?

Go ahead and play a champion of fenris detachement with 2 iron priests on thunderwolves + 1-2 battle leaders with a few little wolves. Then, you can join your white scar unit since they are all independant characters. Why would you do that ? Easy, if your opponent carries ignore cover saves weapon, put the wolves infront, so they can use their 2+ armors or their 3++. The wolves will also benefit from the FNP of your command squad. You can also look out sir on the little wolves anytime or on your bikers if you wanna jink. Moreover, with the librian conclave, you could easily invisible your whole unit, which would become a powerful death star.

Usually i play a Ravenwolves so the bikers jink on 2-3+ reroll, but white scars are so cool

Good luck sir !]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/697364/8796901.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/697364/8796901.page GMT Re:[1850] - Astartes - Cavalry in 40k

Thanks for the idea
Yea, I was recently just get the SW starter set and know TWC are too good. My original plan was to chop the shooty and shoot the choppy. But the "Scar Wolves" made me tight in points to get all the shooty, choppy and buffy I want even in 1850. Your idea may get me spare possibly around 150pts for trim down the Grey Hunter tax, yes, WS has enough guns so they may not be necessary. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/697364/8797038.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/697364/8797038.page GMT
