The Return of the Wulfen!!

Greetings all,

Jamie #1 Here, I have been working on my Wulfen for the last 2 weeks and have almost finished them, just small details to touch up. Then it dawned on me that since it is a miracle that I have actually painted something within a couple of weeks of buying it, I should celebrate with a blog post.

First off I had some issues with getting the body on the legs, the whole assembly was odd if im honest but did allow for some customization. You are given all the weapons you can dream of so all the frost and hammers that a space wolf could want.

After finally getting everything assembled which did take a ridiculous amount of time (Most likely due to my own abilities) while following the handy instructions that were provided, I had a 5 Man squad of Wulfen ready to tear something part... Once they get painted that is but that's a small detail in my world.



I have to say these models where quite fun to paint all be it fiddly and frustrating at times, with weapons and pelts getting in the way on several occasions. I wanted to try something different with my weapons by giving them a frost effect. After a trial on some wolf claws on a terminator.



Which I was very happy with I decided that this would be the effect on all close combat weapons in the army.

The Wulfen Pack Leader in my honest opinion needed to have a change in stance as that Kung Fu Crane was just silly, I swapped one of the feet to push the model forward to make it look like he was charging rather than asking to be killed like a Cultist. This has to be my favourite model out of the unit.


The rest of the unit consists of 2 shield and thunder hammer Wulfen for much needed survivability for the unit to make it to combat, otherwise they would die before making it there which would make me a sad panda.


Followed swiftly by a Frost Axe Wulfen to cleave through units and those tasty wraith knights that we love to beat up. Normally left to the thunderwolves but now i have a new unit that will be designated for monster hunting.



Last but not least is the remaining Wulfen with a pair of frost claws which can kill most things with ap2 str 6 attacks.


Overall these models have been fun to paint and a pain to assemble and I cant wait to use them on the tabletop, until then Keep on fighting.

Confessions of a Warhammer Wife

Confessions of a Warhammer Wife Bruce’s obsession with Warhammer was only revealed to me during our second year of dating. We had been together a long time by then – had even lived together for the majority of that time while at University. And still I didn’t know about this one aspect of Bruce’s nerd-dom. When Bruce and I first began dating I was fully aware of – even besotted by - his nerdy credentials. Together we had played hours of Halo 3 and Mario Kart, swapped manga and even visited the cinema for a solo late night screening of Star Trek. Yet this did not prepare me for what would become one of his main loves in life. It all started back in 2012. We had been living separately back at our parents’ homes after University – me in Yorkshire, he in Worcester. I would often travel down to visit him and on one such occasion I was told of a new friend Bruce had made through work. Damien. They had apparently bonded when Bruce had taken on old model – a Tyranid Warrior I beli...

August Apocalypse

Hi All, Its Martin. Our very own Sam, with the help of Matt and Andy from Worcester Wargames put together an Apocalypse game that saw the mighty Imperial armies battling against every Xeno army going (I played my Eldar on the Xeno's team). To allow this to happen, all Xeno's were made allies of convenience to prevent us turning on each other! From Six Up save other than myself, we had Jamie 1 and 2, Bruce, Sam, Dae, and Matt playing in the event. The tournament was a 1 day main event with a sub mission played the night before. Each team had a 'Warlord', Dae for the Xeno's and SUS's newest member Jamie2 for the Imperium. It was their task to coordinate their respective teams towards their targets and agendas. I would say both did an awesome job at keeping their teams in order and directing troops to where they were needed. Each player had 2000 points to spend on their chosen armies but they could only have 1 LOW / Gargantuan per list and within t...

Jamie #1's Imperial knights of Fenris!

Greetings Brothers of War, Jamie here with a little project that i'm working on with Sam's help. I am in the process of constructing 5 Imperial Knights. That's right 5 of the beauts! I plan to have a mix of loadouts to both look great on the shelf and be powerhouses on the tabletop. Fortunatly I had built a Kinght before, so I already had a good idea how to put them together. I have (with assistance from Sam) managed to magnetize the knights in several places allowing for a wide variety of weapons to be used. The megnets are joining the mid section, shoulders, elbows, the thermal and battle cannon turrets for easy swapping, and the carapace weapon on top. The clips that normally hold the shoulders on have been cut away to allow a flat surface for the magnet. On the joint I placed a penny to create that flat surface for the magnet. This was fiddly as we needed to make sure that each shoulder magnet was able to attach to all the shoulders for all models. We had to ens...
