Re-Update: Space Wolves


I posted a few days back that I am making a concerted effort to get my Space Wolves done.  I am doing this because my 40k painting has taken a bit of a backseat lately and there is an upcoming 1,850pt RTT at my local LGS.  To that end, I plan on putting down a completely painted and based army with a scenic/rustic display board.  I have also changed up my normal 2,000pt list to A) scale down to 1,850pt., B) look cool and hopefully win a painting award, and C) be easy to paint and finish in the next 2 1/2 weeks. Here is the new list.  I will post the things I have done or am working on.

1,850pt Space Puppyspam

Rune priest- living lightning, jaws, chooser, wolf tail talisman- (painted/based)

5 scouts- meltagun (painted/based)
5 scouts- meltagun (painted/based)
Wolf Guard- 3 with pistol/power weapon (painted/based), 2 with combi-melta/power weapon/meltabombs(painted/based), 1 with terminator armor/cyclone missile launcher (painted/based)

5 grey hunters- meltagun, TL lascannon razorback (painted/based)
5 grey hunters- meltagun, TL lascannon razorback (painted/based)
5 grey hunters- meltagun, TL lascannon razorback (painted/based)
10 grey hunters- 2x meltaguns, power weapon, wolf standard, mark of the wulfen, rhino (painted/based)

thunderwolf cav- thunderhammer/storm shield (painted/based)
thunderwolf cav- wolf claw/storm shield/meltabombs (painted/based)
thunderwolf cav- ccw/storm shield/meltabombs (painted/based)
*Each thunder cav is run separately to fill out my fast choices and to allow them to split up and assist my grey hunter squads better.

5 long fangs- 4x missile launchers (unpainted/unbased)
5 long fangs- 4x missile launchers (unpainted/unbased)

So, a significant amount of progress from my last post.  I did decide to drop the landspeeder from my list.  It was in my original 2,000pt. list, but the thunderwolf cav are taking it's place because A) I think they will accomplish more and B) because they look better painted.  I did a lot of converting on them and I think that will earn me some points. 

So, the plan is to finish up the long fangs in these next 2 1/2 weeks and then run through and do any touch ups I need.  I will also need to update my board as I last used it with a WFB Dark Elf army (you can see it in my side bar pictures).  Otherwise, we are good.  I promise a big, fat photo shoot will come when the army is done.
