I dont like the blood claws much. Maybe use their points to get some fenrisian wolves or something

I don't really care for the blood claws either. I simply replaced them with another grey hunter unit. I made the change to the original list because it was such a small one.

Ok, a couple of things that could help you out...

First off, you have an empty Land Raider which is a waste of an awesome assault vehicle. So, drop one of your Rhinos and stick Ragnar in with one of the Grey Hunter units.

Second: as cool as Canis Wolfborn is, he has a very huge flaw: He is only leadership 8 and isn't Fearless. You're almost better off building out a Wolf Guard Battle Leader on a Thunderwolf and giving him a Storm Shield.

Third: I would show a bit more love to your Grey Hunters and bring a Wolf Standard with them. For 10 points, it will more than pay for itself as you will get to re-roll saves, hits, and wounds for an assault.

Also, while having 5 Thunderwolves is very cool. I would take a bit smaller unit and arm them differently to allocate wounds as you see fit. Rather than take 5 of them, you may be better off with 3 and giving them Storm Sheilds for a bit more staying power.

You should also max out your Long Fangs with 5 Missile Launchers.

Last, if your intention is to build an "Assault" style Space Wolf army, then you should think about adding Wolf Guard. A Grey Hunter with a power sword is 30 points at leadership 8 with 3 attacks on the charge/counter charge. A Wolf Guard with a power sword is 28 points with 4 attacks on the charge and gives your unit a leadership of 9. Granted to use that Rhino, you will lose that "Free" special weapon. However, if you're paying more for your wargear than if you brought the Wolf Guard, then it isn't really "Free" is it?

good luck!

Agreed with Patrick. Although it's a toss up between WG or GH with PS if they are going in the rhino.

Also, i disagree with the thread title... this is not what i'd call "friendly"
