Horus Heresy 2e Review: Space Wolves Armoury

Warpstone Flux Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
2.5/5 stars, rounded up to 3/5 stars. The rules are average.  

Although not quite as thin as some other legions, the Space Wolves armoury is hardly crowded either. 

Fenrisian Axe. Feels a bit like the chain bayonet upgrade, but this one gives S+1 and reaping blow. Take it for assault squads I guess if you're not taking chain bayonets? Honestly, I prefer the chain bayonets.

Frost Blades. Another reaping blow add-on, buy for your power weapons this time. The great frost blade feels nice for a power weapon upgrade, but might not be so great depending on the enemy. The rest are meh, except for one frost claw (can't fathom why you'd take 2). Very situational.

Aether-Rune Armour. This is good. Its artificer armour with a bonus wound and adamantium will rolled into one. Well worth the points cost investment for your independent characters. A no-brainer include.

Jarl. Gain counter attack and an option to take skirmish. Its cheap enough so probably worth it most of the time. 

Overall.
Loving the aether rune armour. Liking the Jarl. The rest I don't really care much for. Your mileage may vary, obviously.
