So I was just kind of toying around with a few ideas here is what I had

The CML WG goes with a long fangs unit
and the WP, and RP go with the GH as well as 3 PW,MB WG
and then the last WG goes with the scouts

Hey,
first I assume those long fang squads are 5 men each?

Second, melta bombs on your wg? If you get into a situation where you can actually use them you're probably already in range with the melta gun on the squad, I'd drop the 4 melta bombs and invest in 2 power fists for your wolf guard models. Yes you loose the initiative but those will be the squads with the priests in them so you'll still have a power weapon and the fist can take out heavy models or multi wound models a lot better.

If you drop the 3rd GH squad down to 8 men then you have 15 points to spend on 2 combi meltas and melta bombs or a wolf claw for the scout's wolf guard model. Melta bombs on him isn't a bad idea since the scout's goal is to pop tanks in the back of the oppponent's formation. The reason to drop down is that if you want to leave the rune/wolf priest's squad to hold a point or if their transport gets totaled the priest can jump onto the next rhino in line and keep going.

I am not sure you need the 3 lazcannons in the long fangs, with spliting fire and having the twin linked lazer-backs you have the armour sewn up tbh. You could save the 45 points and spend it on some more wolf scouts or dare I say it take 5 points from somewhere else and give the terminator rune priest master of the runes to have him shooting every turn and casting tempest's wrath too.

You see this a lot online. There are a few pitfalls you have probably overlooked:

For one, you are consolidating all your ranged firepower into a handful of units (2-3). This means the enemy has less threats it has to deal with, you have less targets you could be shooting at, and its easier to silence your ranged firepower.

Also, for Dawn of War it means you are leaving the TDA's on their own or walking your Long Fangs onto the board (much better to have them ride in on the Razorbacks, disembark, and run into position).

I'd consider dropping the TDA Rune Priest entirely and taking a 5 man Grey Hunter pack for the CML toting Wolf Guard. You get yourself another scoring unit, and he can then fire his CML at targets other than what the Long Fangs are hitting if you need.

Honestly you'd probably be better off making the Grey Hunters 10 man. Wiffing those Meltaguns could hurt and you aren't bringing any on the Wolf Guard. I rock the Power Weapon/Meltabomb setup myself, but then I'm usually on foot and have a Lone Wolf running around.
