[[File:GSMinis.jpg|300px|right|thumb|Yeah, these were the guys who were caught carrying a [[derp|wooden shield]] in the Burning of Prospero novel cover.]] ''Not to be confused with the [[Grey Hunter]].'' Grey Slayers were warriors of the Space Wolves during the [[Great Crusade]] and [[Horus Heresy]] that were noted for their more independent approach from command and control, as well as their close-combat prowess. ==Overview== Unlike the Tactical Squads of the other Legions the Grey Slayers were compact individual warbands of Space Marines, all but autonomous in their own right. They were largely reliant, did not depend on direct commands from above, and were experienced enough to deal with many challenges independently. Like most of the Space Wolves at this time, they specialized in seek-and-destroy missions. Squads were led by '''Huscarls'''. All of these guys wore [[Mark III: Iron Armour]] and wielded a [[Bolt Pistol]], [[Power Weapon#Frost Axe|Frost Axe]], [[Power Axe|Fenrisian Power Axe]] and a Combat Shield. However, they can swap their standard weapons with a [[Chain_Weapon#Heavy Chainblade/Chainsword|Heavy Chainsword]], a [[Lightning Claws|Lightning Claw]], [[Power Fist]], [[Hand Flamer]] or a [[Plasma Pistol]]. Meanwhile, the Huscarl can swap his weapons for a [[Thunder Hammer]], two sets of [[Lightning Claws]], a [[Melta Bomb]], a [[Volkite Serpenta]] or a [[Chain_Weapon#Frost Blade|Great Frost Blade]]. ==Crunch== On the tabletop, these are 145pts for 10 and 12pts per model for 10 more. These are the Space Wolves' more expensive, versatile and melee-focused Tactical Marines; they have the ''Skirmish'' sub-type, which gives them a slightly longer coherency range and +1 to their cover saves with terrain. Armed with a Bolt Pistol, Fenrisian Axe and Combat Shield which they can swap for Bolter for free, and add bayonets for almost nothing. They don't have ''Fury of the Legion'', though, but they do have ''Counter-attack (1)''. They also can buy a Vexilla and Nuncio-Vox. The fact that they're more of a Tactical/Assault Squad hybrid gives them the ''Line'' sub-type for scoring and ''Heart of the Legion'' for better survival, along with an absolutely staggering list of options, letting you craft them into absolutely any style possible. {{Space Wolves}}
