The Space Wolves are getting their Grotmas detachment from Games Workshop. The Champions of Fenris are here to slay!
It’s been quite the ride this Grotmas season with all the detachments. Today we’re getting one for the Space Wolves! I hope you’re ready to write the saga and sing the songs of bravery for these Champions of Fenris.
“The Champions of Fenris let rip with blood‐chilling howls as they storm into battle. They are the hand‐picked warriors of Great Wolf Logan Grimnar, the exemplars of all that it means to be a Space Wolf, and every last one fights to prove themselves worthy of such accolades. Even should they do battle without their lord, still they strive as though he was watching and judging their every effort. “

Space Wolves Grotmas Detachment – Champions of Fenris
The theme of this particular detachment really does lean into the name. It wants you to bring the big boys — Terminators, Dreadnoughts, and other Astartes Infantry units. Basically, those units (Infantry and Walkers) gain a tweaked version of Heroic Intervention. You’ll be able to charge like madmen during your enemy’s Charge phase. Any of those particular units will be able to declare a charge when they are within 3″ of an enemy unit.
Additionally, Terminators will also get to add 1 to their OC characteristic due to this detachment. Overall, you can expect the Space Wolves to want to get in the opponent’s face. The Champions of Fenris are going to close that gap one way or another!
As far as the four enhancements and six stratagems, you probably know this by now: they also play into the theme. GW really wants you to bring out the Terminators for this one. Chilling Howl is a good way to force units to take a Battle-shock test at -1. Then combine that with Foe’s Fate to force their Desperate Escape tests also at -1. Turns out the Space Wolves can be kind of scary!
If you’re looking to bust out the Space Wolf Terminators and bully your opponents around then this might be a detachment worth checking out. The Champions of Fenris will make the Great Wolf proud!
Here come the Champions of Fenris!
