Best Blood Angels VS Space Wolves Posts

Now the hysteria over the new Blood Angels Codex has quietened down, I thought we'd take a look at the best Blood Angels VS Space Wolves posts from the past few months.

It's a fun progression of opinions about the Blood Angels and Space Wolves, especially where Alex is concerned. At first he become a true emo vampire fanboi, to the point where he threw down the gauntlet to Brad over Live Messenger that Mephiston could kick Logan Grimnar's teeth in. As bystander to the conversation, it was up to me to be the referee.

After a couple of rounds there was no clear winner. In fact, the victor seemed to always rely on how many invulnerable saves Logan Grimnar could make. If he passed just enough to remain on 1 wound, he always splattered Mephiston with his mighty Axe Morkai. If he didn't make it (and it was always close!), then Mephiston cut him down before he could strike back.

Check out Logan Grimnar VS Mephiston. It's well worth a read.

But it wasn't long until Alex had turned his back on the Blood Angels and returned to the ale guzzling embrace of the Space Wolves, decreeing that Blood Angels are rubbish. Actually, he didn't say that, he compared various units points for points and concluded that the Space Wolves were most cost effective, but also far more forgiving. Whereas, if Blood Angels don't get the charge, then they're in trouble. Meanwhile Space Wolves stand there and shout "Come on them if you think you're 'ard enough!"

Check out his Space Wolves or Blood Angels comparison for yourself and see if you agree.

Personally, I couldn't play a Blood Angels army -which is just as well really when I've written this blog. But that's because I'm more of a defensive player by nature rather than an attacker. But if I were to field a Blood Angels army, it would have to be a Blood Angels jump pack army. Themed, fun and very competitive against the right armies. In fact, stay tuned for this Friday when I rip James's Space Marines apart with just a handful of Blood Angels!

Check out the awesome Blood Angels Jump Pack Army submitted by Kris. If I had some money to spare, I'd play this as a fun throwdown army.

Finally, I'd like to present the Space Wolves escalation army list that I won 3rd place at Battle Of The Chumps with. While las/plas Razorbacks with small Grey Hunter squads seem to be doing the rounds at the moment, I've always found that the core choices are the real back bone of the Space Wolves army. Besides, nothing seems to shift a sizeable Grey Hunters pack with a Wolf Guard, Wulfen, Wolf Standard and Melta Guns. I'm also rather partial to the Rhino melta gun drive-by.

Check out my Space Wolves Botch Army Lists which have been built around the core Space Wolf units. In fact, you can look forward to a round up of my favourite Space Wolves units very soon.

See you tomorrow for Brad's Space Wolves VS Blood Angels battle report!
