Now that everyone has the new Space Wolf codex in their hands, people are turning their attention to next week's release of the Champions of Fenris Supplement. A lucky few who got the Space Wolf special edition box set they already know what is inside the Supplement.

Thankfully, those people have been releasing the details from inside the book. So, here is a complication from various sources of what you can find inside the Champions of Fenris Supplement.

I have to say I am really digging all these formations, they are one of the best aspects taken from Apocalypse and having them in basic Warhammer 40k really makes things interesting. The only problem with all this content; is why isn't it included in the basic codex, instead everyone is feeling like they have to spend $100 bucks just to get all the rules for their army.
