A SW Grimnar missle army could do some serious damage.
logan
10 WG 2 cyclones
5 WG cyclone
5 WG cyclone
5 WG cyclone
6 LF, 5 ML
6 LF, 5 ML
6 LF, 5 ML
3 WG combi meltas, Drop Pod
Or drop one WG squad for a cheap Rune priest if you need anti psychic.
All terms have Chain fists if points allow(Im going from memory here) and fist or PW on the last one or two if it doesnt allow. At larger points I also throw in some combi plasma on grimnars large squad to be anti MC and terminator defense since he can make them relentless and still charge, or tank hunters if a transport really must die.
Thats 25 missiles per turn. If the assult marines start on the board they are losig at least a squad per turn depending on cover saves, and only one will make it to the finish line. If they Deep Strike, all of one squad is toast and part of another the turn they come down. The only save they ever get against the ML is cover if they have it, plus they'll be eating storm bolters and bolt pistols on the final stretch or if DSing. Logan + his feat and charge is pretty nasty. Drop pod stalls or wrecks LR turn one, hopefully in deployment zone if wolves went first to keep the terms at bay, but mid field if going second. The term unit is the only really viable threat to the wolf gunline.
The list is pretty good against most other armies as well, with a few bad matchups (I shudder at the grin a DE player that won the roll to go first would be wearing).
Most lists will struggle agianst that many FNP assualt marines backed up by THSS terms. I didnt build the list above specificaly for this one, but I admit I did have BA in mind in general when building the list.
