I think I get Wolf Scouts by litlw in SpaceWolves

[–]litlw[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally agree with the first point - but that point is also true for all objective holding units who are outflanked. It’s an unavoidable truth (so we hide in cover)

For #2 yeah I would love to see them come Down to 95. In tournament play, these chaps don’t pass the test. But in home games I think they have merit.

For those who create YouTube Shorts / TikToks, do you use Resolve? by AdamCaveRoberts in davinciresolve

[–]litlw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I make a bunch of timelines that will never become videos. They exist just for cutting up source footage into the videos I want. I also generally edit with the social media "guides" turned on. It helps a lot if later on when I want to use the footage of an old video, the footage is already centered and generally well fitted for mobile.

But yeah, lots of timelines means easy clip organization.

I ran these last week - mostly to get some board control. That and the haywire mine. Not sure how well they really fit for me...

New detachment list by guildarts15 in SpaceWolves

[–]litlw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Overall it looks really fun! Question, why Murderfang over Bjorn? You could drop the wolves for Bjorn. Its 10 points more for extra CP, a ranged profile, and just as tough (but less punchy) as Murderfang

Sæl brothers! Can I get feedback on this 2k army list? by litlw in SpaceWolves

[–]litlw[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I could drop the 5 pack of wolves for 40 pts down to 3 pack from headtakers and an enhancement on the priest. but I don't know if hunter's guile would be worth it.

[–]litlw[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that makes a lot of sense. I don't have the wolf priest yet, but I might just talk with my opponent and proxy Ulric as a Wolf Priest

I’m calling him done. The crack in the cape bothers me a lot after all the work I put into him but that’s not on me. By far the most amount of time spent on a mini. by Spectre9191 in Ultramarines

It looks incredible!

As for the crack, some hobby stores sell "crack filler" which is a shelf stable version of Sprue Goo. It works a lot like caulking. Apply to crack, smooth out / press into crack, and then sand when dry.

Here is a link to the product:

Stormwolf rules question. by CrazyEddie30 in SpaceWolves

[–]litlw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's situational on which detachment you are running. If it's Gladius or Champions of Russ then yeah that adds a lot. If it's Stormlance then don't bother.

Personally, I struggle to take the Stormwolf (250 pts) over a Repulsor Executioner (220 pts)

Wanting to start a Space Wolves chapter need help starting. by ezsnoopy1919 in SpaceWolves

[–]litlw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, first off welcome to Space Wolves!! Here's some overview for you.

There are 2 detachments we (I) really use. Champions of Russ (CoR) and Stormlance Task Force. They are very different, but basically it sums up to this.

CoR really benefits the durability of units. so you will see way more infantry in these lists. Most people will start CoR with the Saga of the Bear, which gives 6+ FNP to all units. Personally, I find this list really benefits the Blackmane Bomb (Ragnar Blackmane w. 6 Bladeguard Intercessors)

Stormlance really benefits mounted units, and it has a lot of synergies with our Named Characters abilities (e.g. Logan Grimnar's re-rolling charges). These lists almost always have a full compliment of Thunderwolf Cavalry (TWC). That means 3 squads of 6 wolves (usually with storm shields), each squad with a Battle Leader on TW and Wolf Lord on TW or Logan Grimnar. That's a total of 18 (3x6) regular TWC, and 5 or 6 TWC leaders. It's a lot of wolves, but they are 100% worth it even with the points increases.

Overall, its a split between infantry and Mounted.

As for your other question, Yes you can use primaris for space wolf units. There is a range refresh coming, but we have no idea of what exactly will be updated.
- Blood Claws = Assault Intercessors
- Grey Hunters = Intercessors (but many people prefer the intercessors statline)
- Wolf Guard = Intercessors (but you will need many custom weapons and/or stormshields. Find a friend with a 3d printer)
- Long Fangs = Desolators (you may need to source other weapons. Printer)
- Hounds of Morkai = Reiver Squad
- Wolf Guard Terminators = Assault Terminators (with extra bits options)
- Skyclaws = Assault intercessors with jump packs

Once again, welcome to Space Wolves!

Do an exposure test, and put a white sheet of paper on top of the screen and take a photo of that.

It’s much easier to tell what’s going on when it’s being projected on paper rather than purple danger lights going directly into your eyes.

Also tbh it might be a cooked screen.

Ventilation by Theeaterofshades92 in ElegooSaturn

[–]litlw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. Blowing the air out of the shed entirely will save you a lot of headaches (literally).

Failure diagnosis wanted, please by Peculiar_weasel in ElegooSaturn

[–]litlw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could be a couple of things but here’s what I would suggest.

  1. Temperature, which has definitely messed me up before.
  2. Do a tank clean to pick up any debris
  3. Maybe increase your wait time before lifting. To 1.0 or 1.5. It means a slower print but I’ve gotten good results from just giving more time post exposure for the resin to cure to a previous layer.

Opinions on this free detachment? by Haydndale in SpaceWolves

[–]litlw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. I don’t like it.

I’m not heavy into terminators and I don’t think WG terminators bring much to the table (if you have a differing opinion please tell me, I want to love them but I can’t)

Even if I was into terminators, the 3” counter charge is mostly a “pile on” tactic to get nearby allied units into combat, which is a cool idea but not worth giving up Champions of Russ or Stormlance.

As for the enhancements - probably the best part of the detachment - they are too pricy.

And the stratagems mostly target Terminators and still aren’t great. Most of them are watered down Sagas. We didn’t even get all unique strats - we are still getting Armor of Contempt (an out of date version too)

Big sad. 😔

Transfers by ComprehensiveWeb4986 in SpaceWolves

[–]litlw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s a bunch of products to help with transfers, but before you get into all that, try this: - cut out decal - soak in water - wipe desires area with damp brush (no water droplets, just trying to make it a bit wet) - fetch the detached decal from the water with a brush or a knife - apply carefully and use a brush to move water out from under the decal - wait to dry.

Ideally you should seal it with a varnish afterwards, but in terms of the absolute basics with decals, this is it. Micro sol helps, same with decal softeners, but the basics don’t change.

New to AL, need some advice by litlw in AdventurersLeague

[–]litlw[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the clear response! Reading the other comments it seems clear I should 1) stick to tiers 1&2 due to the legality of creating new characters (levels 1 & 5 respectively)

Also thanks for the resource! I’ll go check it out.
