1750 Space Wolves with Marines

[gamma016]

Hey everyone, I'm thinking of taking a spacewolves with allied marines list to a small tournament.

Wolves Unleashed detachment

HQ:
Wolf Guard Battle Leader - thunderwolf mount, power fist, storm shield, runic armour, melta bomb

Wolf Guard Battle Leader - thunderwolf mount, power fist, storm shield, runic armour, melta bomb

Wolf Guard Battle Leader - thunderwolf mount, power fist, storm shield, runic armour, melta bomb

Wolf Guard Battle Leader - thunderwolf mount, power fist, storm shield, runic armour, melta bomb

Elite:
Iron Preist - thunderwolf mount

Iron Preist - thunderwolf mount

Troops:
Bloodclaws - 5x bloodclaws

Bloodclaws - 5x bloodclaws

Fast Attack:
Fenresian Wolves - 15 wolves

Fenresian Wolves - 15 wolves

Marine Allied Detachment

HQ:
Cheif Librarian Tigurius

Troops:
Scout Squad - 5x scouts

Heavy Support:
Centurion Devestator Squad - 3x Grav Cannons, 3x Missile Launchers, Omniscope

So my plan is to run two squads with two WGBL, an Iron Preist, and 15 fenresian wolves, have the bloodclaws in reserve hoping they can outflank, set the scouts up on an objective and hide and put Tigurius with the centurions. I'll have Tigurius try and get prescience, perfect timing and invisibility.

Any suggestions are welcome

Well, why not use the Company of the Great Wolf Detachment instead, that way you don't have to pay any troop tax?

Something like this....

Also, with Tiggy, he's good, but you'll need to be rolling for Invis first, and don't count on him getting it! Also, you'll be unlikely to pull it off against a Psychic heavy army. And put him in the drop pod with the centurions, they'll be far too slow otherwise, this way, they'll be in your opponents face turn one along with the Wolves.

I played and won against a similar type list at this years Australian Team Challenge in Hobart with my Knights/Tau (Fire Support Cadre)

I actually don't have the champions of fenris book so I didn't realize that you could have 4 HQ. I actually really like the list you posted however I think I'd move the drop pod into the spacewolves detachment. The only reason is because we are having a 500 point side boards and if the centurions don't work out well. I'm not 100 % sure what I will put in it though. I was thinking SS terminators, a rune preist and a wolf lord with the Black Death but I won't be able to do that now

[cheminhaler]

I think Champions of Fenris is 4-8 HQ. Very character heavy.

[gamma016]

Is the omniscope worth the points or would fellclaws teeth on a wolf lord work better? I think I will be mostly be playing against Nids and DE

[dangerrod]

Omniscope always, gives you split fire and night vision. BOTH are very handy for the points.

And if you're taking a normal SW CAD then look to use either The Wulfen Stone on a WL and/or The Armour of Russ on another WL, both are brilliant.

[gamma016]

I'm not a big fan of the wulfen stone, too many points for what you get. I may try to bring in the armour of Rus though
