The Armour of Russ

Codex Supplement: Space Wolves, p. 7

Cost: 15pts

This ancient suit of armour exudes an aura of hoarfrost that chills nearby enemies, slowing their movements to a glacial crawl. It is said that during the Second Great Hunt a piece of battle plate was recovered from the Temple of Horus and worked into this armour; some sagas suggest that it formed part of the panoply of none other than the Wolf King himself.
