2000pt Competitive Space Wolves List

[blackarmchair]

This list was written up originally to incorporate the Thunderwolves I've just finished converting but after some play testing I've been having a LOT of luck with this list. I've just finished tweaking it for more competitive play and I'm looking for some C&C.

Any ideas would be appreciated thanks!

Some of yuor points are off. Canis is NOT 180. The WG can't take a Cyclone Missile launcher unless they number 5 men. Every 5th model may take the heavy weapon. What is your idea behind the list? What powers does your rune priest have? what is his role? He has a WTN but is not very good in cc. I'd drop that altogether. I can think of many other things but I'll wait to hear from you.

A few suggestions:

1) Drop the Wolf Tooth Necklace, it's not going to help.

2) If you're suiciding the Dreadnought, don't take anyother Wargear other than a Multi-Melta and Heavy Flamer, save those 75 points for something useful.

3) Blood Claws need a Wolf Priest...

4) Canis...well, he sucks...use a Wolf Guard Battler Leader or a Wolf Lord for about the same points with an Invulnerable save and call it a day. He dies too easy in Close Combat and the fact that a Vindicator can kill him in one shot is just not Kosher.

5) With your points left over you could finagle some points around to make your Wolf Guard legal.

===================================

Dropped the priest and changed out Canis for a WGBL, also I found a creative way to get more wolf guard and a damn fine excuse to bring my favorite chapter master!

If anything, I would make the Dreadnought non-venerable, use points from said shaving and sprinkle in some Power Weapons/Frost Blades to the Wolf Guard Squad. If you did that you could have a Wolf Guard Squad looking like this:

Wolf Guard 10x
2 Power Fists, 2 Frost Blades -260

With Logan in there and Preferred Enemy...yeah, just go ahead and make those Blood Angels cry.
