The Wolf Guard are the hand-picked battle-brothers that fight alongside each Great Company’s Wolf Lord, and each has earned his place by some exceptional feat of arms. Each Wolf Lord favours his chosen brethren with the best weapons he has at his disposal – antique weapons of immense potency and ornate artefacts of ancient origin. Every Space Wolves warriors dreams of a place in the Wolf Guard and will battle even harder when a Wolf Lord is nearby in the hope that he may earn the right to join his legendary brotherhood.

Wolf Guard can be used as a full squad of devastating potential, or they can be assigned to individual squads within your army. This is a very useful ability as it enables you to upgrade your units with a very hard-hitting warrior that has access to a vast array of weaponry. You can then tailor your squads to maximum effect against your opponents. This model would also make an excellent Lone Wolf or even a Wolf Guard Battle Leader with the Mark of the Wulfen.
