New to Space Wolves...

[WarHammerman]

Hey all!

I'm new to Space Wolves, and i'm really looking for some advice.

I'm not afraid of Imperial Armour stuff - matter of fact, I want to use Bran Redmaw as my Warlord.


So, using Bran - I'll have at least 1 Grey Hunters as a troop choice.
However, beyond this I'm..... kinda lost.

I'm very much looking to wolf the daylights outta this list.

Mark of the Wulfen anywhere I can. Perhaps some Fenrisian / Cyber wolves too...


So yeah. Lookin' for some advice all =D

Anyone got a good 2500 point list out there?!

This is a kind of "Shock and Awe" kind of list. It's meant to hit hard and fast, and is to be used hyper aggressively.
HQ:
Bran Redmaw
2x Rune Priests (take Divination with both)

Troops:
(4x) 10x Grey Hunters - MoW, duo plasma guns, Wolf Standard, plasma pistol, power weapon. Drop Pod transport
(1x) 14x Blood Claws (no upgrades)
Fast Attack:
(2x) 13x Fenrisian Wolves
(1x) 14x Fenrisian Wolves

Heavy Support:
Land Raider Crusader (no upgrades)
(2x) 5x Long Fangs - 5x Missiles, Plasma Gun on Sarg.

With this list you pop in your drop pods right in front of your opponent, with the Wolves and LRC moving up and/or holding the middle table area, while the Long Fangs with Rune Priests hold the back and give some long range firepower. Blood Claws in the LRC give Redmaw a good wound-bucket as well as a unit that can hit hard on the charge. Now if you don't like Blood Claws, or for some reason there is a restriction that I'm unaware of with him joining BC's then you could switch out the LRC for a Redeemer and the Blood Claws for a Grey Hunter unit with plasma pistol, power weapon, Mow, Wolf Standard. Both the GH and Redmaw would go in the LRR in that list.

In case you already didn't already know this fact: according to Imperial Armour 11 Q&A (http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Downloads/Product/PDF/i/IA11Q&A.pdf):


Pg127 – The Redmaw:
Add Monstrous Creature to the Redmaw’s Special Rules. Note that Bran
Redmaw does not gain this ability before he succumbs to the Curse of the
Redmaw.
