Hello all, just been making some detachments up for Space Wolves, and
was wondering how you thought these would fare in battle, as I have not
yet used Marines in a battle(only played one game- with Orks)

It is made up using the rules for Space Wolves detachments from White
Dwarf 210, so for those of you who have not seen them, they are
summarised as follows:
Space Wolves: This special rule gives all infantry and bike detachments
+1 assault value
Blood Claws have Rampage as well as Assault and upgrade to Jump Packs
Wolf Guard may be given a Heavy Weapons upgrade

Commander: Wolf Lord Grudgskar(Rhino) 59pts

I would like to get some Vindicators to add to the Assault Squadron, as
well as some more Blood Claws. Then use the leftovers from the extra
Space Marine Sprues I intend to egt as a ThunderHawk force when I get a
couple of Thunderhawks. I would deploy these at the back of the enemy if
possible.
