Sure @mage , here you go:

Only 2 builds on there so far but got a few more I want to work on in the build pile, as well as revisiting some to tidy’em up, do some panel lining and maybe some decals 🙂 Either way hope you and your lad have fun building your kits and that these offer some inspiration. What grade are guys thinking of going in for?

I’m mainly going for theme to be fair – this list has been inspired by the first short story that introduced Ragnar and the Wolves as we now know them back in the pages of White Dwarf (and was in the back of the 2nd Ed Codex). I’ve got some other additions lined up – the Contemptor will get a drop pod once Forge World release their update of the old kit, and the Deathstorm pods are tempting as well 😉

As a rule it seems most Great Companies are about twice the size of a Battle Company in a Codex Chapter, but both Logan Grimnar and Ragnar Blackmanes are larger by some way. So by that logic the Space Wolves would seem to clock in at around 3000 raging space Vikings, even taking into account the events of Warzone: Fenris, and you’d imagine that the influx of Primaris marines would push them over this figure.

Sadly the one thing this Codex really lacks is any mention of the Wolfspear or any other potential Space Wolf Successors other than the long lamented Wolf Brothers. A shame as whilst the Wolf Lords and their Great Companies offer plenty of opportunity for variety it’s still reliant on digging powder blue/grey.

@woldenspoons I’ve been thinking about it. The question I keeps asking is do I go with a single project for my Imperial Crusade army and all it’s myriad components? Or focus in on each element as it’s own project before showing the whole lot together? Also finding time to write is a factor 😛
