howdy as ive said in other topics im new to B&C and ive just taken UP building a few guys of the 13th just wanted other peoples opinions on them, and some basic info from the experienced that use them + can u still even buy the models, also if possible could u tell me their basic rules like where they differ from the normal space wolves codex.

[Haegr]

Ive heard (and seen) that the 13th co. are only able to be bought from the UK due to limited boxes (of range etc....) and such, but i wouldnt mind getting some Wulfen (awesome looking people) and making a small 13th co. Kill team

[Max_Dammit]

The models (exept wulfen) are normal marines with some CHaos parts thrown in, there no longer for sale in GW stores but some local non GW stores might have them, I know my store still has 5 or more boxes standing around, and even wulfen

I'd wait to see if 13th Co. has being incorporated into the new 'dex, as if they have been, there'll be some mad new wulfen models

[Wolf89]

I used a box of khorne bezerkers, and a box of grey hunters, (this made my grey slayers unit) bolter in one hand, CCW in the other.

Use the cool running legs for some models, shave off the "horns" off some of the khorne heads, shave off any 8 pointed stars and khorne markings and you're set.

If my camera didn't suck I'd show you mine, but it does suck, so nothing I can do.

I've still got a whole khorne army that I'm about 99.9999% sure I'll never play again, (only chaos I'll play now is death guard or 1k sons) so I'll be converting a LOT more wolves to the 13th company style and make a divergent list of SW's until the new codex comes out where 13th company will hopefully be included.

My advice for you would be use khorne bezerker set rather than CSM set because you get more items to work with (12 in a box set opposed to 10), the chain axes are AMAZING cool and can be used in your normal space wolves (I know I do ) and who doesn't think running legs are just the coolest.

I found that at store that tend not to get many 40k customers......like D&J hobby, you can find wulfen or other old models....I got 20 metal wulfen and I entered 5 in the 5th ed GW release weekend squad painting competition and I placed 3rd not to brag or anything, but I lost to 2 guys who have been playing since 2nd edition, but not my point, you can find them in general hobby stores.....sometimes, and they will be buried in the back, so look in places that are hobby stores, but not specifically for 40k and still have 40k stuff and ask if they have wulfen

[Valdrog]

I hope they bring back the 13th company, i have like 10 wulfen and lots of marines converted for it. Their rules are pretty damn cool.

[Wolf89]

Yes, I too hope they bring them back because I have 45 Fenrisian wolves along with many marines that seem like they enjoy wearing chaos armor more

Also, I enjoy the fluff, and it's the closest I can get to "evilness" without playing chaos, I mean they're just THE and I mean THE most feral, the most HtH oriented and most strongest of ALL Marines, both loyal and non-loyal, and the best part is, they're on our side

[Silverwolf]

I never acctually got into collecting them, but I've always loved they're background, and proxied a few games with them. I LOVE fenris wolf packs and Khorne blood rage ...

... an entire army, trapped in it's own deployment zone turn 1 because its to busy raging at the wolves to do anything else ... and then the rest of the 13th Co. gets there . If they do include them in the new 'dex, I'll definately be getting at least 2000pt worth of 13th Co. to add to my Space Wolf forces

[Wolf89]

I just took out my Khorne army today and sold all the rhinos, defiler and land raider, then chopped up all the bezerkers (I'm pretty sure it was 42) and they're now being turned into 2-3 grey slayer squads and 1-2 storm claw squads, and some bits going on some bikes, Khorne is the best way to make 13th company marines.

[Dr.acula]

I do believe khorne make good 13th conversions but then again just about any chaos marine part does, but to the other part of wulven i hope they do add 13th into the new dex and make some plastic wulven although i cant wait untill they do i wouldnt mind if they did in fact id welcome some more plastic models at the right price lol

[wiplash]

lol i use chaos beserkers as my bloodclaws! minus the chaos symbols and some iconography
but they dont make 13th comp any more so whats left is what they have! which isnt much

[Dr.acula]

dammit that sucks big time. they better start remaking them or else lol
