Yo. Nice to meet'cha.

Custodes set up battles and generally staff the Battle field forums here.

Arbites are moderators. The lowest staff on the food chain but still staff. We've got power over a few forums while High Lords or Primarchs have power over the entire site.

hey hairy I liked the guide on the runes made it pretty simple but like I said I'm probably going to be converting chapters but I'm not sure if I should go wolves successor chapter, templar's successor chapter or just do one with he look of either of those and using SM codex divergence rules...

And just remember, if you make a SW successor, they have to be the Wolf Brothers, who eventually fully succumbed to the curse of the Wulfen... If you're wanting to be accurate on fluff...

However, nothing is stopping you from doing the 13th Co., or one of the many, MANY 'Lost Companies'. The 13th stone in the Chapter Keep is not just for the fallen 13th Co., but all Great Companies lost. Sometimes to battle, sometimes to the Curse of the Wulfen, and sometimes just freak warp accidents, etc...

Sorry if I confused ya with my ramblings, but if you have any further questions, just ask me here or on PM!

alright so here goes, there were no other SW successor chapters other than the wolf brothers? and so there is more options as far as lost greatcompanies other than the 13th...

Yup! You got my ramblings just fine lad!

The 13th Co. is just the most wide known because they seem to CONTROL the curse somehow... Fluff tends to suggest that if all Great Companies were ever to assemble... The Space Wolves would number nearly Fifty Thousand, if not more.

This is sadly where my knowledge is spotty... I believe that at one time, each of the Lost, was one of the 12-13th companys, so they would have had one of the symbols from the 12th Great Companys... That would be something that is up to you...

PErsonal taste, I think Heraldry and such you would make up on your own. Space Wolves are large for a Chapter, but if all of those who were Lost to be Gathered, they would rival the might of a Legion. The Lost also are 9 out of 10 times cut off from the Chapter itself, and receive little to no communiques with them, and are essentially Autonomous chapters in there own right.

Welcome to the site. All has pretty well been covered (except for not feeding Stitch or letting Killer out of his cage, but he'll find those out!!) Feel free to look around the site and ask questions. Most around here are friendly, as long as we get out picture fix.

LOL munkey


ok on to wolves
upon becoming a Wolflord (head of a company)
the space wolf chooses which symbol will be his and every marine in his company bears that mark
if a wolflord were to become the Great wolf they would switch to the
"Wolf from the stars" or the heraldry of Russ himself
hope this helps

i think you should keep most of your present army
but take out a few pieces that you can use to make your new army
and then start form there

example
jumppacks
no need for them in a SW army
but bloodclaw bikersis the biggest bike squad in the game up to 8 strong and 2 points cheaper per
