Re: new space wolves codex True (always take with a pinch of salt), but if you read the rumours on Warseer, those are the ones you'll hear staffers quoting two weeks later.
I'd suggest those over tooled wolf armies were against poor quality gamers.
Space wolves cost a lot of points as basic, when you over tool you take points from other elements of the army... making a highly un-balanced list. Also the list is already set up like that. Standard troops take from their own wargear (power fist / power weapon) choices and characters from the armoury.
The current dex is probably one of the most balanced out there and it's from back when 3rd ed was relatively new. And that's why it just needs FAQing to bring it in line with other 'rine forces (ie, making the iron priest useful as opposed to a redundant unit, A rune priest with different powers, characters with different levels of skill and points)
But this me only talking from experience in using the wolf dex.
