space marine and space wolf allies

[chicop76]

With bike armies making a huge reappearance I was rethinking about busting out my bikes and having them see the light of day. At first I was heavly thinking about a space marine/ blood angel list. The more I looked at it the more the ideal simply doesn't really appeal to me. I feel like I am paying more to field assault marines as troops and I will be missing out on some marine options, not really worried about fnp and furious charge.

After some thought it hit me that white scars/ space wolves are actually a really good alliance. Also it's more inline with what I want to do. I always wanted wolves anyway and running white scars is not a bad ideal with them.

For starters I could run an Ic from white scars with a unit of thundercalf and make yhe whole unit be able to scout and infiltrate for a possible turn one attack. With wolf character x I could get a lot of possible attacks and tear through whole armies.

Also I always wanted to do a lot of wolves. Due to wanting my wolves as hounds I have 20 of them already. I just need cyberhounds.

The only issues I really see is trying to decide on who should be my primary. Grant it having 2 bike ic's attaching to wolves giving them scout, hit and run sounds rather good. Also taking tech marines on bikes may be a great ideal to be able to scout still with both armies.

I'd go with Scars primary, since that way you can field two HQs from each 'dex if you want, and I can't really think of many Wolf units you'd really want multiples of anyway... two packs of Grey Hunters are plenty enough for mid-field Troops (or however you plan to use them... Drop Pods are rather useful too...) - only realy problem I see with that is that both Thunderwolf Cav and Fenrisian Wolves are Fast Attack, so you'd have to make a choice there...

No you can make Fenrisian wolves as troops, they just can't score if you do so. I always wanted to do a wolf horde army, but having no scoring units is an issue. However with the alliance I can add elements of horde to the army. Adding scout to the wolf horde also helps them to get across the board.

The blue print of what I am basically thinking is something like this.

Cap on bike
Khan
Bikes

Speeders

Cannis
Multiple attack lord
Wolves

I probably would need one techmarine on a bike or just take one wolf squad.
