Iron-Daemon Forge Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Hi everone Though pass onto the Wolves. Recently I took my brand new Space Wolves force to there first tournament on Sat, being ELG (Edinbrugh wargaming club) Counter Attack. For the past five year I been useing my might Iron Warriors but for this year I though I'd take a little break as they got a lot of honour to there names as you can see by my Sig (like to keep a mark of honour since IW are my favour army). So for this year tournament session I pick Space Wolves, had a 13th company in the past & then start a Wolves army before the codex came out. But this was all done from scratch when I saw the new models & though I go a bit more indepth & also Space Wolves offer a lot of conversion just like Chaos Marines :lol: & Wolves use part I like playing game wse, Mobilt Warfare (I like tanks) & close combat as nothing more fun than kicking oppent teeth in. Sorry if the photos are a bit blurry but camera was acting a bit funny through out the day. Anyway the just of this is, for there first tournament, I walk away with Best painted/player chose award where the people that the event voted for my army http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/ELG%20CA%202010/DSC07660.jpg I really like the Eldar terrain here http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/ELG%20CA%202010/DSC07568.jpg http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/ELG%20CA%202010/DSC07573.jpg http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/Insane-Psychopath/ELG%20CA%202010/DSC07574.jpg While my friend Dave who was also that the event took a video of my army (was not expsecting this, so cool to see the video) http://incunabulum.co.uk/blog/2010/08/22/e...-of-the-armies/ Dave talk about Viking Rune's. One my Three Wolf Standard they say - "So your Face", "Get it around" (wanted to add "you" but not enough room), "Jaked Gordon" (My team mate from Conflict Scotland who a feollow Wolves player who like his ale). While my Object Marker (Wolf Guard with the Big Blue banner) say - "get it around you jabroni" I did somthing like this for my Iron Warriors & the Icon of Glory, but there a reason why Jervies said he going to edit the Chaos Runes when I was showing him them, but did make him laught (just like above, like "so your face", "that what she said") You can catch the report by here. Game wise............the dice where not with me or my oppents on Round 2 & 3, I'll say right now this is the curse of the new army in it first tournament, bit like new models alway get killed in a game, this was a new army so put it down to that. Round 1 I made a big mistake, but woke up, got brain back into play (had been up 6am) & though still loss, learnt a lot & now ready to counter should the metal death coffen tactic happen again http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...=209051&hl= Really enjoy useing the Space Wolves, play like my chaos (in term of the amount of attack with Bolt Pistol, CCW, etc..), but with the extra of the Imperial, like Land Speeders, Razorbacks & most all..... dreadnoughts which will not destroy you........well if a Plasma Cannon dose not scatter back (Round 3 in the report exsplain all on this, this will make for a funny saga) :P :lol: So got two more tournament this year being Stirling Wargaming club Rapid Fire - 23rd, 1750pts UKGT in Warhammer World in Nottingham - 20th & 21st of Nov. Really happy with how the army has turn out overall. I'll be trying to get better photos hopeful a week on Thur & try get unit by unit. IP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vassakov Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Very nice looking army - good to see it get the recognition it deserves! I'm sure you'll get to grips with the Son's of Russ soon enough, but I would caution against using them like CSM's. They've got very different play styles, and it gives you plenty of new options to try. On an aside, I hope the bits I sent via Warseer proved handy - you've certainly done a better job than I!

littlbitz Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I know you have heard me say it, but it warrants me saying again... I love this army! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
