Apocalypse Formations- Space Wolves

Hello All,

I just got the new Apoc book and I am really enjoying it. The book itself is gorgeous and sized like regular books and not the over sized volumes of the last edition (good job GW.) The subtle changes in apoc formations allows me to field some for once...(In the last edition I always needed to buy more stuff if I wanted to use them and since these games are rare to begin with not really worth it.)

This morning I discovered that I really can field a Space wolf (SW) great company!

Points wise The SW company blows the regular chapter company away as there are no size restrictions for the SW units other than minimum number of units. This allows Grey hunter packs to be fielded in units of 5+ rather than 10 man squads. 

Here is the bare bones break down- No Upgrades
