5 grey hunters
melta gun
razorback with TL lascannon

Heavy

5 long fangs
4 missile launchers
1 melta gun
razorback with TL lascannons


im not sure how effective the list is but if people could give me any tips that would be great because im looking to be buying it within the next 7 days . thanks

its not perfect, but its also not that bad

i was thinking of dropping logan grimnar for a basic hq and having another set of long fangs. whatwould you recommend changing?

im not quite sure

is 23 troops enough though? im use to playing orks so its very different.

Yes!

grimnars sweet but rune priests are just so much better...axe the great wolf and maybe two of those termies...wolf guard are far more effective leading ur grey hunters and giving them 9 Ld for those counter attacks. unless you want wolf guard really bad as termies, tho sadly our termies are not up to par with the THSS termies of dex marines. if you do, make sure they take combi weapons for maximum wound allocation with maybe a wolf claw or two. long fangs are a must...i'd have at least 2 squads. if ur using the long fangs correctly they'll never get in that 6 inch range for making the melta worth it so i'd axe it. consider balancing ur grey hunters evenly (if you want the razorbacks, probably spam em)...i'd consider 7 man squads led by a pack leader if you want...still gonna be a nice 23-24 atks give or take a few. also put a wolf standard on ur squads...for ten points it is great at ensuring ur guys win that critical fight.

saxing grimnar and replacing w a rune priest w/ CotS and WTTalisman ur saving like 150 points, axing the LR saves you another 250, axing the termie armor saves you like 150 points. thats 550 points to be better spend on another grey hunter/long fang squad or two, and even more if you want to split them up in razorbacks.

Good luck
