Alamo Bound - Work begins



It has begun. I've received the first of the items I need to begin building my army for Alamo. While I have a good number of space wolf models and have been play-testing lists already, I want to make some new toy soldiers for this tournament and I want them to stand out.
To that end, I'm shamelessly borrowing from the fellas at the Space Wolves blog and using their idea for pre-heresy grey hunters as shown here.

Alamo Bound... A Work in Progress

I've weighed my options, and thought a good bit about what I want to run.
I've thrown a few lists together and spent a good amount of time coming up with ideas for modeling options and units additions.
But at the end of it all, my wolves won out. I can't wait to see my Thunderwolf cav led across the table by the 2 Lords on Bears. I'll be testing my list out and tweaking it, but this is how it stands currently, without any modifications before we start:

Wolf Lord - 275 pts - Runic Armour; Thunderwolf Mount; Frost Weapon x1; Storm Shield x1; Saga of the Warrior Born
      2 Fenrisian Wolves
Thunderwolf Cavalry x2 - 190 pts - Storm Shield x2; Thunder Hammer x1

Wolf Lord  - 260 pts - Runic Armour; Thunderwolf Mount; Storm Shield x1; Thunder Hammer x1; Saga of the Wolfkin
      2 Fenrisian Wolves
Thunderwolf Cavalry x2 - 185 pts - Storm Shield x2; Frost Weapon x1

Fenrisian Wolves x9 - 80 pts - Cyberwolf x1

Rune Priest - 160 pts - Chooser of the Slain; Master of Runes; Living Lightning; Storm Caller
Long Fangs x6 - 140 pts - Missile Launcher x5

Rune Priest - 110 pts - Chooser of the Slain; Fury of the Wolf Spirits; Storm Caller

Grey Hunters x9 - 190 pts - Meltagun x1; Mark of the Wulfen; Rhino 
Grey Hunters x10 - 205 pts - Meltagun x2; Mark of the Wulfen; Rhino
