Thunderwolf Cavalry

The practice of tracking and training Thunderwolves is a sort of initiation ritual into the upper echelons of the Wolf Guard.

Warhammer 40,000 Space Wolves Changes for June 20, 2024

The Sons of Russ are currently exemplifying all the problems GW has had balancing Space Marines. Their Detachment has been pretty hot garbage since the beginning of 10th, but they've had more than enough luck using vanilla Detachments. Currently, they're sitting at a whopping 58% win rate, with a full double the expected performance at top tables for their 3% player representation.

GWs first answer to this is to once again try to adjust the Champions of Russ Detachment. You now get to start with a Saga completed and then try to complete additional Sagas on each turn. This may finally be enough to let Space Wolf players enjoy their detachment. This effectively gives them one of four buffs to choose from, picked at the start of the first Battle Round. Additionally, with the new Secret Mission rules, having more Sagas up in the late game is no longer a case of "too little, too late." This is an awesome change.

While we get no new Errata we get some crazy FAQs for Murderfang. On the one hand, it's ability has been confirmed to trigger multiple times per phase. However, that doesn't mean it actually does anything. Apparently Fighting out of phase still requires you be eligible to fight by having made a Charge or being within Engagement Range. Similarly, Murderfang can only benefit from Big Guns Never Tire in your Shooting Phase. So if he's locked in combat, he can't shoot out of phase.

Finally we get a pair of nerfs to popular Space Wolf units. Both Thunderwolves and Wulfen have gone up 10 pts for their basic unit. Honestly that's not that big a hit. Really, with the exception of the clarifications for Murderfang, this is pretty good new for the Sons of Russ. They now have another detachment to look at again and see if they can finally make it work. They also don't care about the nerfs to Ironstorm Spearhead. The real nerf is they're going to lose, at most, about 120 pts of their current army lists. Space Wolves are still in position to be the premiere heroes of the Imperium.

Things John Geist is no longer allowed to do Pt 1

John is no longer allowed to Challenge Space Wolves to drinking contests, we are running out of space to store the Thunderwolves they keep gifting us.

John is no longer allowed to personally recruit, he tried to drag a Space Marine into the Mad Wolves under the reasoning 'that he wasn't wearing his armor, I just thought he was a weird looking Priest'.

John is no longer allowed to attempt to cook, the Ratlings are still confused on how he managed to burn eggs under direct supervision but can somehow perfectly roast meat over a fire.

John is no longer allowed to claim that he's 'A Space Marine, A Mechanicus Priest who Lifts, The Emperor's answer to Lucius the Eternal, The Man who Sold the World, or Punished Wolf'.

John is no longer allowed to challenge Khornate Cultists to Duels, we are starting to get fan mail from Khornate Cultists... most of them are wanting to duel and the rest are requests for procreation.

John is no longer allowed to visit our Eldar Allies, John has a tendency to try and steal anything particularly deadly looking, and he's been seen lugging away a Harlequin before.

John is not allowed to speak to the Tau, especially to Commander Farsight, especially if the Tau personally request him.

John is not allowed to recruit Kroot from the Tau, he managed to get a Kroot War Pack to worship him somehow and now they are following the Mad Wolves like a bad stench.

John is not allowed to try and shoot anything larger than his pistols or more intricate than his bow, the Assassinorium are still bothering him to try and get him to tell them how he managed to bounce a las-bolt so many times.

John is not allowed to preach the God Emperor's Word, the last time he did he managed to cause two Priests to have a mental breakdown.

Opened my boyfriend's Christmas gift to me and OMFG

We decided we'd open each other's gifts on Christmas Eve (I was gonna open one of my gifts anyway cuz we have a "you can open ONE gift the day before" tradition) and yall- I dunno if anyone here knows Warhammer, but it's an artistic hobby for me. It's a space/fantasy army thing for those who don't know what it is, the lore to explain would be too big to put into small enough words to describe the fuckery behind it all lmao But my army is called the Space Wolves (they're essentially space vikings in appearance) and it's a hobby my dad got me into as a kid. Around 2022, I got back into it thanks to becoming friends with someone I lost touch with who was into the hobby too. My boyfriend got me a set called the Thunderwolves Cavalry, which is this:

I've always wanted this set (I love wolves as much as I love cats and snakes and always have which is why I chose this army as a kid and haven't budged on choice) but as usual with hobbies, the models can be a bit expensive. The smaller wolves on their own in the box set was £22, which was 10% off, and these models, with 10% off again cuz he didn't buy directly from the Warhammer store and the price of this set can be up to £29-£35 depending where you buy it. I haven't had the money to buy them because yk, other important stuff to worry about with money, and I haven't had a model in a whole year so to be able to get into my hobby again and with a model i've longed for is so fucking sweet. I love my boyfriend so much But when I said these can be expensive, I mean it. Last year my dad got me the Primarch for my army (aka the Space Wolf God, son of the Emperor which is this Universe's God essentially), that model was £100, which I felt so bad for my dad getting it for me but so grateful. I got him exactly what he wanted for christmas but god, I felt like I needed to get him more to make up for it. Even on special occasions like Christmas and my birthday, I've got this 'Gift Guilt' problem. I feel unworthy of the gifts I get and feel like the only way I'm worthy of having these things is if I get the gift-giver something of the same value or higher to show them how much I love them, yk? In counselling, my counsellor told me the reason I had this was trauma-related because my mom used to give my sister expensive things at the drop of the hat because she was the fabourite and I was the unwanted child, but if I asked even for a fucking 50 pence bag of marbles for my birthday (I was 4 then, mind you), she told me I had to beg for it because I wasn't worth anything she would, in her words, "Mercifully" give me. Sooo yeah, sorry to trauma dump here but I'm really excited and my stomach is doing that weird twisty thing with guilt, anxiety and excitement!

A QUICK BACK AND FORTH

What better time to have a brief look at what I got up to in the past year? And see how that matched up to my plans from the end of last year, and to make some (hopefully achievable) plans for the year ahead.

Firstly though, this guy:

My fantastic Secret Santa gift, a converted Primaris version of the original Iron Priest model. I love it so much, I've shared it everywhere else so why not here as well?

And now, the round-up...

2023

The year was basically spent seeing out the end of the ninth edition of 40k. A good meet-up at the beginning of the year which included some Boarding Actions action, and then on to the local Crusade league again, although one that was ultimately cut short with the release of tenth edition. At this point ninth was starting to feel a little stale, and very bloated rules-wise - I think I already made the point about the sheer number of stratagems I was juggling by the end.

And with tenth edition coming out, I ended up organising a weekend for people to play some games of it in the first week of its release. I was pretty proud that I managed to pull the event together, definitely a highlight of the year. I even managed to enjoy it over the persistent level of stress I felt! Turns out it's a good set of rules - I certainly enjoyed playing it in the second half of the year in the new Crusade league, as well as writing the short stories to go with my league results submissions.

RESULTS?

So how did I do with my plans for 2023? I got a few models built and primed (around 2000 points worth), including the Impulsor I wanted, plus a bonus Repulsor. I got a chunk of Phobos models painted up too, including one of my Invictors, but sadly the Storm Speeder and Hammerfall Bunker I mentioned last year are still waiting.

Transfers are still pending too, but I have got a row of spare shoulder pads ready to be tested on before I move on to actual models.

I also got all the Death Guard I built over the previous Christmas break all primed up, but no further. Like the Death Guard themselves, there's no rush, it's purely inevitable. No other projects got a look in really, but I did manage to build six Thunderwolves so there is a chance to do something a bit different (albeit more Space Wolves!).

No other projects sadly also includes the Sylvaneth. No games, nothing new painted, I will definitely change that this year.

2024

So what do I want to achieve this year? It's possible the Space Wolves codex could arrive in the second half of the year, so I can't see there being any new models I'll want to buy before then (bold words). From what I do already own it'd be nice to get the things I have nearly fully built to a primed state (the aforementioned Storm Speeder and Bunker, plus a Drop Pod), and some of the primed bits moved to the painting desk and hopefully to the gaming table as well.

On top of that I have a Brutalis Dreadnought I want to get built (at the very least), and then I'd like to work on my Erik Morkai conversion a bit more, maybe some terrain too. It'd also be nice to get the Thunderwolves and Wulfen ready for the table since it's impossible to tell what the new codex will bring in terms of units and models coming or going, so it'd be good to get some game time out of them before then.

Sylvaneth, simple - play (at least) one game, and it'd be nice to get one of the primed units I have painted up (Tree-Revenants, I'm looking at you).

Other than that, it's very much wait and see. Legions Imperialis I could be very tempted by but I'll wait to see how it shakes out in terms of rules and models, as well as uptake in the community. Epic is where it all started for me, so I can't imagine I'll hold out for long however.

Oh, and maybe more than 3 posts on here this year? I guess I'm already 33% of the way there at least! Happy New Year!

The Space wolf Defect is a byproduct of the genemods done to the natives of Fenris reacting to geneseed. Primaris wouldn't have had them till they started pulling recruits from Fenris stock. Its also why thunderwolves are part human.

Oh also I guess Primaris were supposed to not have any of the geneseed defects anymore and all the Blood Angels, Space Wolves etc fans were like “this is literally the entire point of the chapter wtf it’s why they’re cool” so I guess GW retconned that out by saying those defects/curses were just too strong even for Primaris version whatever but buy the models

i’ve been consuming way too many Initial D meme comps on youtube than is necessarily healthy so, new headcanon. Thunderwolves and their riders bond by racing around the outside of the Fang.

But really, how big of a dog sled do you think 12 whole Space Wolves could pull?

Started a new basing style for my space wolves i a lot happier with. Mud underneath with snow, grass and muddy puddles. Heres some Thunderwolves.

I also did a base for my gladiator, which I wanted done before I plopped on the tank itself.
