So i made a list using the things i (kinda) have, and hopefully it isnt a total disaster. The Command squad issue i have ( as seen in This link ) still needs to be tested out and played around with, as does my extra squad of bikes.

Warlord: Khan on Moondraken-150pts
Command: Biker command squad (x4 grav guns/ plasma rifles, Apothecary, bikes)-210pts

Allied Space wolf 1: Rune priest (seeker, Bike, JoTWW and LL)-145pts
Allied Space Wolf 2: Rune Priest (Bike, Prescience and Assail)-135pts

Troop 1: Biker squad (x6 marines, x2 flamers, MM attack bike)-191pts
Troop 2: Biker squad (x6 marines, x2 melta guns, MM attack bike)-201pts
Troop 3: Biker squad (x6 marines, x2 grav guns, MM attack bike)-211pts

Allied Troop: Grey Hunters (x10 hunters, x2 plasma guns, Wolf banner)-170pts

F/A 1: Storm Talon (skyhammer missiles)-125pts

H/S 1: Thunder fire cannon-100pts
H/S 2: Thunderfire cannon-100pts

Now instead of one rune priest I can take another artificer captain to tank for the command squad, but i Want some psychic powers. Also, choice between grav guns and plasma rifles.

Very similar to a list I run and I've been enjoying it. Your list isn't bad but it could use some tweaks, and ultimately I feel like it will perform best at the 1850 pt level.

A few things:

-Lose one of the RPs in favor of a tanky-beat-stick CM. I saw in the other thread that you found his usefulness questionable. I too used to feel this way, but I finally ran him in a game and after watching him hungrily devour loads of Eldar shooting with nigh a scratch, I am convinced of his worth. The OB is nice too. Go big or go home with this guy. Give him artificer armor, a TH and SS (possibly Shield Eternal). If you need to you can split him off late game to wreck somebody's face.

-Give the GHs flamers and put them in a pod. They'll be pretty useless slogging in your back field. With flamers instead of plasma, they can handle your horde control, and putting them in your enemy's face forces them to be dealt with rather than ignored. (They have decent assault capability with the Wolf Standard, even more so if you find points for MotW)

-Take the flamers off the bikes and get more melta or grav. Drop the atk bike on the grav squad. Maybe it's just me, but I really hate mixing special weapons in a squad, unless their symmetry is great, which is questionable for grav and melta.

-Add combi-grav to grav squads for saturation.

-Definitely go grav over plasma on the command squad. While plasma is more cut and dry, the volume of fire from grav will win out in the end.

Dropped the attack bike and gave troop 3 a combi-grav. The "high Champion" has a power axe, auspex and arti-armor to tank things, and the wolves have a drop pod! Also, traded the storm talon out for a rifleman dread that will be shooting from the get go (tired of waiting for storm talon.)
