Not sure about the last grey hunter squad. Maybe more scouts? Another Rune Priest without master of runes? I have toyed with putting the wolf lord on a thunderwolf but think he would get shot to pieces shortly. Maybe with the drop pods they will be so busy they can't concentrate on him? Let me know.

ok dont have a SW codex here, but I thought the long fangs were limited to 4 heavy weapons.?

Nope, they can be up to six models with 5 heavies.

Ahhhh ok. I havnt seen the new codex and i wasnt sure if it had changed or not.

No other thoughts?

Despite their special rule for splitting fire, I don't necessarily think it means you should vary the weapons too much. That's like saying because I have the points for two havoc squads, one should be heavy bolters and one should be missle launchers. Mix them between missle launchers and lascannons, and split fire accordingly. If you need anti-infantry, frag missles do fine. But focus them all on either anti-tank ish weaponry or anti-infantry-ish weaponry. Fortunately, missle launchers are both and SW pay ridiculously little for them.

I think you have some wasted points in your army. you could free up points by dropping some unnecessary war gear and streamlining your units a bit more. (for example) 2 plasma pistols in the scout squad.

Also I would bring another rune priest instead of the Wolf Lord. Cheaper on points the wolf lord really isn't needed.

I agree with splitting up the lascannons and heavy bolters. I would put all lscannons in one squad and heavy bolters in another. If you drop a few things from your squads and commander you can easily afford another drop pod for that last squad or maybe even a razor back.

I guess I split the neavy weapons between the two squads so that you can't just concentrate on one squad to get rid of the ones that are causing you the problems. I was lloking at the heavy bolters for the horde armies. Lascannons for the mech (3 kill points apiece in the last scenario). I like the Wolf Lord for the major death. I do agree with the wargear and will look at that again. Am still looking at another rune priest. Just wondering how to counter the demon/nids monster lists. Maybe the thunder wold mounted wolf lord isn't such a bad idea?

First off let me help you trim an obscene amount of fat: Drop Lucas. For his abilities and what he offers, you can do so much better for the points. Additionally, his Stasis Bombs ability looks cool, but if you take him in a horde of Blood Claws, he could end up taking half of the unit with him.

For your Long Fangs, if you are torn, I would take nothing but Missile Launchers. They give you the AT you always need and 5 Frag Missiles puts out a lot more hurt then a few Heavy Bolter Shots. From there, you can sprinkle in some Lascannons to help out with heavier armor and also for creatures with 2+ saves.

For monster lists, remember that most bigger bugs and Daemons have a 3+ armor save so missiles will go straight through them. After that, they usually have an Invulnerable save somewhere around 4+/5+ so you can just use torrent of fire to bring them down.

Plasma pistols on Wolf Guard are going to eat up points quicker than no tomorrow, I would drop them. Not to mention, you chance losing almost 50 points in a single model.

I would drop a squad of Grey Hunters to generate some Transport ability to your other squad of Grey Hunters. As expensive as our troops are, you need them to be as flexible as possible. Footslogging 7 Grey Hunters is significantly less effective than giving a ride to 10 Grey Hunters.

Thunderwolf Lords are amazing if they have cover. In this case, you do not. I would not make him a giant target so keep him on foot.

Hope that helps, good hunting.
