Hey guys, I couldn't seem to unload my wolves so I'm going to give them another whirl and just play the hell out of them. This is the list that I came up with because I already have the models for it. It seems pretty solid to me and I can see target priority being a huge issue for my opponent.

HQ:
Rune Priest:
-Living Lightning
-JoTWW

Wolf Lord:
-Thunder Wolf
-Storm Shield/Thunder Hammer
-Saga of the Bear
-Wolf tooth necklace

Wolf Lord:
-Thunder Wolf
-Storm Shield/Thunder Hammer
-Saga of the Majesty

Troops:
6x Grey Hunters (Rune Priest)
-Melta Gun
*Rhino

5x Grey Hunters
-Melta Gun
*Razorback
-TL Lascannon

5x Grey Hunters
-Melta Gun
*Razorback
-TL Lascannon

Fast Attack:
3x ThunderWolf Calvary
-SS/TH
-SS/Melta Bomb
-SS

3x ThunderWolf Calvary
-SS/TH
-SS/Melta Bomb
-SS

Heavy:
6x Long Fangs
-5x Missile Launchers

6x Long Fangs
-5x Missile Launchers

6x Long Fangs
-5x Missile Launchers

The biggest weakness I find in this list is the lack of troops. I could drop the Plasma Bomb and put in another set of Grey Hunters and maybe give them each a Wolf Guard w/PF. This would really help me in objective game, but on the other hand, the Plasma Bomb is a huge ace in the hole for me. It does wonders is all of my games. Let me know what you guys think. Thank you!

At 2,000 points, I'd say you need at least 4 troops choices. Two laserbacks with minimal squads is most certainly not enough. Definitely drop the plasma bomb, it's maybe a one-hit wonder. Possibly good for friendly games, not really a good option for tournaments. On your 2nd wolf lord, why the frost axe. A thunderhammer isn't much more expensive and when combined with a thunderwolf, it's a whopping S10! My opinion - thunderhammer all the way.

I agree with you about the troops. As for the Wolf Lords, I didn't think they could have the same weapons load out.

You can have the same weapon just not the exact same loadout. Just equip them exactly the same with TH and SS then give one of them a talisman. Its pretty good on its own so isnt a waste of points either.

Drop the plasma bomb and get more GHs. I'm also reluctant in going so heavy on TWC when you really lack troops.

Taking your guys advice. Hope the new list looks a bit better.

I'd drop the 3rd TWC in both units. Thats 160 points. 7 GHs with melta and standard in a rhino is 155. 2 TWC with an attached lord in each unit gives all the punch and survivability you'll need and 4 gh units is minimum at this level imo.
