Space Wolf Faction?

[Maximum Broly!]

Any chance of getting these guys? They're not just a Space Marine Repaint. They do have unique units such as the Rune Priest, Wolf Priest, and Thunderwolf Cav.

I don't think Space wolf are unique enough to be a faction though.
Tau for example, they are clearly distinct from everyother factions already in the game. Unique tech tree, buildings, units and even play style. It will be nice for them to be a new faction

Space wolves get loads of love in Sanctus Reach buddy. They're too similar to what is in this game already. We need races that are under exposed in games currently like the Tau, Eldar and Dark Eldar especially.

There's an upcoming game about the Mechanicus called Warhammer 40000: Mechanicus. There's also some gameplay footage on Youtube

Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2 is going to have Adeptus Mechanicus. It's not the land based stuff but it's something.

Gladius could technically implement inter-faction diversity by having diferent SM chapters, different Ork clans, etc. IG also has different sub groups like the Catachan, Death Korps and so on. They'd have the same basic gameplay of their "parent faction" but with some different bonuses/penalties, a few unique units. Could be good.

They could possibly implement some sort of system where depending on what chapter/sub faction you pick, it gives you access to a few different units without changing the fundamental game play for that faction. Kind of like Halo Wars 2 gives you a few different units/upgrades depending on the commander you pick.

I don't know what level of effort this would require though and I personally would MUCH rather see (especially early in the game's life) new races like Tau, Dark Eldar and Tyranid (the most under used races in 40k PC gaming) than just getting sub factions for races that have been in just about every other 40k game.

Wouldn't this make the whole space marine narrative bit a bit...difficult?
