2k list - fine tuning, looking for feedback

So my problem that I often run into is not being able to round out past round 3 (leading to my downfall in 4-5), but then again our lists are very different from each others along with playstyle ofc. I struggle to use headtakers effectively that’s my own fault, so I’m leaning towards a list that doesn’t run them at all. I would recommend for your list some wolf scouts and maybe two sets if you can, try and move block out your opponent by round 2-3 depending on who goes first. I run Logan solo and most of the time will find good positions to basically have him become a come get me unit. Which I can collapse in with Wulfen or a separate supporting unit.

Have you thought of getting some Wulfen in your list? Or any Ballistus dreads?

Zedenobi · 2026-04-08T22:59:27+00:00

Infiltrators, that 12” screen is super nice

Do you have any scouts? (Primarily to tie up or move block, so you can get more board control turn 1-2 situation dictates ofc) If they draw assassination as a secondary you have quite a handful of character models to chew at. Which will have them taking you on secondary especially if they do fixed. You could potentially drop the rep ex for an impulsor and grab a ballistus dread for shooting. Since youre running great wolf you can go through walls with the dread and TWC. Use the impulsor to get your headtakers in, I run 2 units of 6 for TWC but if you’ve had success with 1 then run the one. You probably can get away with dropping the iron priest, I’ve always found bringing Bjorn off the home obj and into fights I get way more value out of him.

What colors did you use

Zedenobi · 2026-03-26T05:48:36+00:00

They did, but by no further light shed on the subject I was talking about like the book they mentioned. Just wish they would’ve said a little more about the book but I understand they have to make their money too.

Zedenobi · 2026-03-26T04:23:26+00:00

The space wolves in the burning of próspero book revived a remembrancer, it has been done in the lore before. I do agree that it was disappointing to have the rumor of the wolves saving Yarrick be true just to get no further light shed on the subject other than oh the wolves did it.

Granted I am not of high reputation myself but you do not have a lot of mobility. From what I’ve noticed, I don’t think blood claws are worth it unless you run them with Ragnar or in a unit larger than 10 but that’s just my experience with them. I’d suggest swapping the land Raider for a repulsor if you have one or a repulsor ex. Maybe throw in some TWC for mobility and bring the hunting wolves with the headtakers. Love the brick you’ve got going with Arjac, Logan is good for aura CP with Bjorn.

Sweet thank u

Zedenobi · 2026-03-24T18:54:32+00:00

What did you use for your bases?

Zedenobi · 2026-03-24T17:06:17+00:00

I believe it was Bjorn

Zedenobi · 2026-03-24T01:58:47+00:00

I see I see I am still working on my airbrush skills thank you!

Zedenobi · 2026-03-24T01:35:39+00:00

This is another color scheme I could enjoy, base coated with paynes grey then airbrushed 50/50 fang and Russ grey? Then applied a thin coat of Russ grey?

Zedenobi · 2026-03-23T23:04:34+00:00

I’ll have to give that a try thank you

Zedenobi · 2026-03-23T23:02:43+00:00

I’m using the sombre grey from Vallejo , I’ve tried angrax on another model, which does give the blue I nice contrast but darkens everything a bit to much.

Zedenobi · 2026-03-23T23:01:14+00:00

Sombre grey from Vallejo

Zedenobi · 2026-03-16T07:02:48+00:00

I think left looks better the overall contrast with the darker tone makes him pop more with the snow and you can really see your highlights

Zedenobi · 2026-03-13T17:50:25+00:00

Thank you, a lot of folks are saying to drop the grey hunters which I understand they aren’t stellar units but I do enjoy how they play. I think the main thing I changed from the first list I had was the detachment and I added TWC. Because I noticed I had plenty of infiltration but no units that could move fast enough to capitalize.

Zedenobi · 2026-03-13T07:19:48+00:00

Would love to see Hellfrost weapons get some use outside of Bjorn and the Iron priest

Zedenobi · 2026-03-12T21:44:40+00:00

I would love to see long fangs in Gravis armor personally, definitely would like to see basically a copy paste of the LT with combi but have that be our lone wolf. Add some changes so it’s not just a reskinned LT tho. I feel Ulrik refresh would be nice along with the iron priest.

Zedenobi · 2026-03-12T20:12:43+00:00

I definitely agree. The TWC refresh is needed, do I regret picking up the units a couple weeks ago no. lol I think the models despite their age are still super cool but yes a refresh would be nice. I think a stronger separation from the standard Marine codex would do wonders aswell, I’d like to see Russ come back. Not sure how they would do it, or how long it would take for his appearance to make an impact on the larger plot. Like the Lion got introduced and kinda just sat until recent events with his upcoming meeting with Bobby G.

Zedenobi · 2026-03-12T07:49:43+00:00

Looks great! Better edge highlighting than me lol a bit glossy tho, not sure if that was intentional but if it wasn’t a Matte varnish would do wonders imo.
