Hy there,
I've been playing space wolves for quite some time now, and I've always thought vindicators were my way to go. But recently (read finally) I came to the conclusion my vindi's weren't performing the way they should in an army like mine. This made me make a new list, maybe it's a lot more common, I'm pretty sure of it, but I must say I did some serious thinking for it. Here goes,
HQ
Rune Priest, jaws of the world wolf, murderous hurricane
ELITES
4 WG, 4 PF, 4 CM
TROOPS
8 Grey Hunters, meltagun, rhino
9 Grey Hunters, meltagun, rhino
9 Grey Hunters, meltagun, rhino
9 Grey Hunters, meltagun, drop pod
FAST ATTACK
4 Thunderwolves, 1) TH 2) SS, MB 3) SS 4) nothing
Landspeeder, multi-melta, heavy flamer
Landspeeder, multi-melta, heavy flamer
HEAVY SUPPORT
5 Long Fangs, 4 missile launchers
5 Long Fangs, 4 missile launchers
5 Long Fangs, 4 missile launchers
As you can see, I've got 12 missiles, which is an amount I've never used, or faced. So I don't know how it works, but they seem very good. Better than first-blown-up-vindi's. Also, I needed a punchy unit, something better in combat than grey hunters, so the TWC returned. I've thought about the SS's, and I think I'm gonna try 2, as 4 isn't needed and this way I still have wound allocation. The 4th grey hunter unit is in a drop pod, since it took to much time to arrive in my opponents line, I thought, why not start there? I hope this will put my opponent a little bit in the corner, since the grey hunters in his deployment zone must be destroyed, or they will cause some havoc, which they will do anyway in the first turn.
Please don't hesitate to post what you think is right or wrong, any criticism or approval is welcome :fingers-crossed:
thanks
