Are some of your units on foot? There don't appear to be enough transports for everyone which will seriously hinder your mobility.

The Wolf Guard are a bit overpriced for what they do when they could be riding Thunderwolves, giving them extra mobility and durability.

What does Bjorn add to this list? It has almost no ranged firepower to speak of, other than the Land Raider and the Long Fangs. It doesn't need the first turn THAT badly, and he is vastly more expensive than standard Dreadnoughts.

The lone Vindicator is asking to be destroyed early. With so few total vehicles in your list, it will draw a lot of anti-tank fire, especially once the Land Raider is gone.

Why are there 10 Fenrisian Wolves in the list? As far as I can tell your Wolf Lord doesn't have a Thunderwolf Mount, and they do almost nothing to support the list other than act as ablative wounds for a Thunderwolf character.

I think you have the points wrong for your Wolf Lord. The Wargear you have listed is about 20 points less than the total you have written.

Personally I am all for flavored lists, and I like that you have named everyone and given everyone a bit of individuality, but I think you might have gone a bit too far with it. What do you intend to accomplish with this list? What is the purpose and will it be used competitively? If so, do you intend to win games or do you intend to win other prizes like sportsmanship and painting? Some additional information on what you want would really help.

Good points, all.

First off, that was my little goof when converting this from written to typed format; the wolf lord is also sporting a suit of terminator armour, which should resolve that little point discrepancy.

A few of the wolf guard split off to lead troops units, the rest form a retinue and hop into their LR with the wolf lord.

Bjorn adds rerolls, and with his BS/WS 6, he is more lethal, and with a 5+ invul, more durable than a regular dread. I also had no more force org slots

The Vindicator will just have to get lucky, or hide behind the LRs on the rush across the table.

That wolf pack will very much be bubblewrap.

To be honest, I think I was going for flexibility instead of the standard 'wolf cavalry charge' or rhino rush that I see so much of. I wanted a good grasp on anti-tank fire power, mix with small, elite units of counter-attack. And while I do like themed lists, I would also like to think that I can achieve some surprises if I use the terrain properly and....well strategy in general. Let's be honest, it all comes down to tactics, because it's not an army that achieves victory, but the player. I feel like I'm rambling. Sorry.
