he’s not amazing and costs a fair share of points. Then it occurred to me that the Wolf Priest is good but…. I was a little worried about this at first. 20 points is 20 points and taking two of them means we need to now account for 40 more points in our lists. The Iron Priest is a base 20 points more expensive but the Thunderwolf and Cyberwolf upgrades remains the same point cost. While it does say in the White Dwarf that you can use both – the Curse of the Wolfen book is quite clear that the new entry replaces the old. The Iron Priests have been moved to an HQ choice now in the Curse of the Wolfen book. I rely mostly on the backs of the Iron Priests with their Cyberwolves as both ablative wounds and a bit of insurance against Grav Weapons since they are AV 4 and there are 8 of them in the unit at the start of the game giving me a majority target number 4 for all Grav to wound. In my lists I have been typically running a Wolf Priest with a Bike and Runic Armor coming in at 160 points and two Iron Priests in the elite slots at 165 points each.
You could back these guys up with a unit of Thunderwolf Cav from this formation if you we’re just going to throw all the ICs into a Space Marine Command Squad or equivalent unit. The ‘default’ choice was an HQ that helped in some way with close combat and then two or three Iron Priests on Thunderwolves. This formation’s requirements are largely only HQ and Elite slots but also gave you the option of taking every other slot in the codex. With the addition of the new Space Wolves codex and the Champions of Fenris specifically, we received a formation called the Company of the Great Wolf. Ideally you do this no later than turn 2…. You need a unit that can withstand a lot of firepower and still deliver a powerful punch when you reach the enemy. We have seen many different variations of it over the years but the concept has remained the same.
You guys know I invented the super friends list ages ago.
