Oh boy, it's time to unleash the wolves! The Warhammer 40K Codex Supplement: Space Wolves is here and it's a must-have for all Space Wolves fans out there. As a die-hard Warhammer fan myself, I was really excited to get my hands on this 88-page hardback codex. And let me tell you, it did not disappoint.
First off, let's talk about the lore. The history of the Space Wolves is a thrilling read, and I loved learning about how they relentlessly take the fight to the enemies of the Allfather across the Sea of Stars. The bestiary is also a great addition, with background details for every unit and character featured. And of course, the showcase of stunningly painted Citadel miniatures is a treat for the eyes.
But let's get to the meat of it - the rules. The Space Wolves have some unique rules that are not available to other Space Marines chapters. The Sagas, for example, are a unique form of Warlord Traits that make the mighty heroes of the Chapter stand out. The Tempestas psychic discipline is also a bespoke addition, and the Relics of the Fang are a great way to arm your heroes. The Crusade rules are a nice touch as well, providing new Agendas, Requisitions, Battle Traits, Honorifics, and Crusade Relics that are unique to the Space Wolves.
All in all, the Warhammer 40K Codex Supplement: Space Wolves is a great addition to any Space Wolves player's collection. It's also a good fit for Warhammer fans who are interested in learning more about this chapter and its unique rules. The only downside is that you will need a copy of Codex: Space Marines and the Warhammer 40,000 Core Book to use the rules included in this codex.
Pros:
- Thrilling lore and stunning artwork
- Unique rules for Space Wolves units
- Sagas and Relics of the Fang add depth to the game
- Bespoke Crusade rules provide new ways to play
Cons:
- Requires other books to use the rules included
In conclusion, the Warhammer 40K Codex Supplement: Space Wolves is a great addition to any Space Wolves player's collection. The lore and artwork are top-notch, and the unique rules and additions make the Space Wolves stand out among other Space Marines chapters. While it does require other books to use the rules included, it's a small price to pay for the wealth of content found within. Unleash the wolves, and let the galaxy tremble!
Bottom Line: If you're a Space Wolves player or a Warhammer fan interested in learning more about this chapter, the Warhammer 40K Codex Supplement: Space Wolves is a must-have. Rating: 9/10
