Space Wolf Codex First Reactions


Reactions are coming in from hobbyists that have seen the codex, and their first reactions to the new Space Wolf codex are great. Of course I have not seen it yet, and wont until release day (the first hours of its release), but the more positive responses I get to the codex, the more excited for it I am.


Please remember that any info here must still be considered to be rumor, as the release is not out yet.

So first off the wolf guard set is stunning! 
Most named ch got cheaper. Rangar for instance has dropped and gotten slightly better if you ask me as he has gained rending and can reroll a single saving throw in the assault phase. 

Logan is a pure beast!!!!
Rune priests now start at mastery 1 and can be mastery 2
Thunderwolf Cav came down in cost!!! but have to take a minimum of 3. 
Swiftclaw bikers and skyclaws came down in price and can add wolf guard. Thank god!!! 
Space wolf TDA deep strikes so ppl need to get over it. 

From a glance the army is all about the centre field again. 
Shoot the crap out of things in the 18-24 inch range then counter assault hard! 

Long fangs gain flakk but ML go up in points. The death of long fang missile spam??
