===Heavy Support=== *'''Land Raider''' - Schizophrenic AV14 box. You should take a Crusader instead, and you really don't need two more lascannons anyway, if you think you do, drop the Land Raider entirely, get another pack of Long Fangs, and/or more Razorbacks with Twin-Linked Lascannons, they'll be more spread out (which helps with their survivability) and they're much more cost-effective. *'''Land Raider Crusader''' - The golden cow of Land Raiders. Pintle-mounted Multi-Melta plus the sheer bullet rape spewed out by this thing will lay a hurt on squishy things in its way, or stupid Guard or Ork drivers who decide to pull up next to it. *'''Land Raider Redeemer''' - You're better served by a Crusader. While they burn MEQs, this variant suffers from not doing anything before it reaches the frontlines, and it needs to be in melta-range to fire. Melta = death, so take a Crusader instead. Also, it's a pain to use both their flamers simultaneously <strike>and devastatingly</strike>. *'''Long Fangs Pack''' - Take Devastators, get rid of the regular Bolter Boys and give the heavies Split Fire. Long Fangs are the most popular tank-hunting choice of the Space Wolves Heavy choices, and are easily paired up with the more mobile Dreadnoughts to bash in the METAL BOXES. Running them with Missile Launchers is recommended, with an occasional Lascannon thrown in if you have points to spare. <s>Missile launchers also have the added bonus of being able to send fliers packing.</s> Flakk Missiles have not been added for Space Wolves in the errata, so you're going to want to park a Long Fang squad behind a Quad-Gun Defense Line. *'''Predator''' - It's a Predator. Duh. Not worth it in a Space Wolf army, you'd better served with Fangs instead. If you, for some reason, want to use one, keep it cheap and arm it with HB sponsons. Sit back and pound the enemy, or provide AV13 for your bawkses. *'''Vindicator''' - It's a Vindicator. Low side armor, single hull-mounted gun, short range pie plate gun. <s>Due to the Wolves' assault-heavy gameplay (WTF?!), you've got a chance of that plate scattering on your own Wolves. Bad, bad, bad.</s> Which is why you don't shoot where you are assaulting, and the Space Wolves don't have assault heavy gameplay anyway. The vindicator is great for drawing absurd amount of fire from inexperienced players who are [[DISTRACTION_CARNIFEX|too scared of a strength 10 weapon to shoot more useful units]] like the Long Fangs, regardless of how short the range on its cannon is. *'''Whirlwind''' - In an army like the Space Wolves, your mileage may vary on how useful the Whirlwind is, it's decently cheap, and allows you to ignore cover, but has really weak armour, one Lascannon shot or better and you can kiss it goodbye. It might be a little more useful if you play Cities of Death a lot, but otherwise you'll probably be better off with Long Fangs who can usually do its job far better anyway. *'''Stormeagle Gunship''' - *'''Fire Raptor Gunship''' -
