Warhammer 40k - Review Library 356 - Space Wolves, Wulfen Dreadnought

Like the Venerable Dreadnought... but faster and more Crazy... but do not expect it to hold objectives!

Hello everyone! Zak Ludick here from Cape Town, South Africa and this is a Warhammer 40k - The Great Unit Review Wheel! post!

Now known as the Unit Review Library! Here is the current Library Link post!

What is it all about? It is not there to just give a stat. It is there to give MY review of the unit!

Space Wolves incoming!

As explained in This post about new reveals at Adepticon the Space Wolves are suddenly being launched and dropped on our heads suddenly!

Thus my time for reviewing their Datasheets is running out. I have 34 Reviews to do, I am trying to maintain a fast pace so I will give myself 17 days including today to complete all of these. That means that the last day of this personal challenge will be the 15th of April 2025!

Today is Day 16/17.
I have reviewed 32/34.

Time elapsed: 94.11%
Review Completion: 94.11%
On Par!

Beyond them looms another 85 reviews of the Coming soon section! I better get cracking!

Hobby Fund - Working myself into the clear

With my hobby posts, I generate a hobby fund. 50% of the income goes into the fund. At the moment I put all my HBD earned from Warhammer posts into my alt account @zakl.hobbyfund.

I am collecting funds in the following ways:

  • Blogging about Warhammer to earn HBD
  • Accepting donations - Can be sent directly to @zakl.hobbyfund in HBD
  • Selling some of the collection to friends.

At the current count I am paying off some hobby debts. I still have $242 to pay off!

Every bit counts!

Back to the review.

The whole project has become quite the Challenge! With so many units to review in the game the consensus in the hobby community is that I will not have enough time to review all of the Datasheets before the new edition of Warhammer 40,000 came out.

I should have started when 10th edition launched!
683 days since the start of 10th Edition.
This is Review #356, I am 327 reviews behind! (Lowest I have been is 314 behind)

Space Wolves, Wulfen Dreadnought

10th Edition Index

A Wulfen Dreadnought is simply either a Wulfen put into a Dreadnought body OR when the occupant of a Dreadnought undergoes the fall to his Curse and then becomes like a feral beast in a giant metal body! amazing!

This model is 130pts!

Let's check its stats and abilities!

Stats

Movement 8"
Toughness 9
Save 2+/4++/6+++ With (armor/invul/Feel No Pain)
Wounds 8
Ld 6+
OC 0

Weapons

Standard weapons: storm bolter; Fenrisian greataxe; great wolf claw.

Options: This model can exchange either the Fenrisian Greataxe or Great Wolf Claw with a Blizzard Shield.

The Storm Bolter can be exchanged for a Heavy Bolter.

Ranged Weapons

Heavy Flamer

12" Range, D6 Shots, Hitting on Auto, S5, AP-1 and 1 Damage each.
Torrent (Hit automatically, just roll for number of shots)
Ignores Cover (Enemies do not get benefit of Cover against this weapon)

Storm Bolter

24" Range, 2 Shots, Hitting on 3+, S4, AP0 and 1 Damage each.
Rapid Fire 2 (When firing at a target at half range of 12", add 2x attacks)

Melee Weapons

Great Wolf Claw

5 Attacks, Hitting on 3+, S12, AP-2 and 3 Damage each.

Fenrisian Great Axe - Strike option

5 Attacks, Hitting on 3+, S10, AP-2 and D6+1 Damage each.

Fenrisian Great Axe - Sweep option

10 Attacks, Hitting on 3+, S6, AP-2 and 1 Damage each.

Abilities

Bestial Rage

Each time this model is selected to fight, you can select one enemy unit within Engagement Range of it and roll one D6, adding 2 to the result if this model made a Charge move this turn: on a 4-5, that enemy unit suffers D3 mortal wounds; on a 6+, that enemy unit suffers D3+3 mortal wounds.

Thoughts

I use this model in my Ironwolves army and thus, an Ironstrom Spearhead. With that I can make him Move 9" and T9 and have Ld 5+ and OC1! Which is a sneaky thing to do because usually the Wulfen cannot claim objectives!

This Wulfen Dreadnought with its 2+ save and 4+ Invul save also gets a 6+ Feel No Pain and once my Wulfen Dread survived the combined firepower of an entire Imperial Knights army in turn 1 and survived on 1 Wound! He then proceded to survive for 3 more turns after that!

That makes 34 Space Wolves Datasheets Reviewed putting them on 100% Completed. The total Completed is 38.86% Complete! Can I review them all?!

Thank you for reading!
