Only 3 days
until the Vlka Fenryka have an epic showdown against the
mighty Tyranids. The might of
Fenris is mobilizing under the watchful eye of their leader, the Great Wolf,
Logan Grimnar. With Evan and our other
friend bringing a combined force of Tyranids tallying 4000 points, I have been
put in charge of getting 4000 points of Space Wolves ready for the fight.
Here is the first 2000 point list: Logan Grimnar and his Guard.

Depending on what happens, there may be a Venerable Dreadnought substituted in for the Wolf Scouts and Rune Priest.
Now as with
everything else, this army is built around a central idea, The Great Wolf
always goes into battle with his most senior and trusted soldiers. Now holding true to the Space Wolves motif, I
decided that Packs could be similar in structure, Wolf Claws in each pack or
Storm Shields and Thunder hammers, but no two members in the same Pack can have
the exact same war gear. These soldiers
are meant to be unique, have versatility, and of course have their own Sagas
they wish to pass down through the Skalds within the Aett.
I think this
Quote best describes this army as well as the 2nd half of this 4000
point list:
“You strive for victory.
That is obvious. What may be less obvious is the nature of victory. There are
circumstances in which you can destroy the enemy utterly, without loss to your
own forces, and yet the victory may be his. In all situations, you must first
decide on the nature of victory, and then take steps to secure it. Avoid the
instinct of fight first and think later.” - Leman Russ -
