I am trying starting a new space wolf army but I am having a hard time changing my mind set from eldar army building. I have new done a marine army either but here is what I was thinking.


Logan Grimnar 270

Grey hunter x5 melta, power fist, - wolf guard combi melta in razorback with TL Lascannon 198
Grey hunter x9 flamer, power weapon, MotW - Wolf Guard combi flamer, power weapon in rhino 233

Dreadnought heavy flamer, multimelta in Drop Pod
Wolf Guard x 5 in Terminator Armor, Storm shield in Land Raider Crusader 490 (counts as Troops with Logan)

Long Fang x5 2 Lascannon, 3 Heavy bolters and a Squad Leader


It has good anti tank and anti infantry but I don't know if Logan is the right way to go.
This is what I am thinking C&C welcome. It has

I'm not an expert on building armies but I can part some information that I have picked up from people who are lol. One thing is that dreadnoughts are not very good by with just one and it's better to not try and separate it from the rest of your army by having it as the only DPA unit. Also, it's the general consensus that 5 missile launchers is the best way to go for long fangs since the pack leader always dies first. It's best to max at Grey Hunter packs so they can get the double melta. I'd personally switch Logan for a Rune Priest since they're pretty awesome, put them in the Land Raider with the WG, and drop the dread and cheapen the weapons on the Long Fangs using the extra points to max out your GH squads and get another squad completely to make up for the loss of a troop choice. I'd also drop the wolf guard in the extra pack, or at least give him a combi-melta instead. Also investing the points for a multi melta upgrade on the land raider is a great choice since you can still move 12 inches, fire the hurricane bolters since they're defensive weapons, and use the machine spirit to fire the multi melta at a different target. You'll probably still have more points left over so give the 3rd squad of GH a transport.

Again, I'm no expert but just how I see it.
