Wolfs run down high armor targets, dakka preds take out transports and infantry, Lone Wolf is my lone cruise missile to take out monstrous critters and other high armored targets.

I'd have given the Lone Wolf two Fen.Wolves for extra two wounds. Also, Thunderhammer is a bad choice for Wolf Lords, since it negates his I 5, for which You have paid with points. No Saga of Warrior Born on the second Wolf Lord?

There is literally nothing scary about this list. Anything with PW's make short work of your Thunderwolves, low model count and one storm shield. Complete lack of long range minus some str 7 auto cannons. Not really that scary, I don't even think they are twin linked. Grey hunters suck vs any melee oriented unit, you have one meltagun I guess that helps within 6'.
Your HQ and Elites and pretty much I1 even with TA,SS they will get the gak kicked out of them with raw amount of attacks.

TH on wolf loards are a wast of time. The wolf claw/SS is the best combo.

The shooty preds are a wast of time vs transports as most are armor 11 or 12.

Drop one for a 5 man squad of scouts with a melta gun for the same price. Having these guys comming in the rear of your enemy really screws them up. There not just good vs armor there also good a bogging down long range units in assult.

Your TW are going to take a LOT of fire. I would run them as a 5 man squad wih a TH and 2 SS. My biggest tank killer in my army is my TW with a TH 5 S5 attacks on the charge rips open armor.

Predators are very very underwhelming for their points cost.

Long Fangs are a much better choice and are pretty much the bread and butter of most wolves lists.

The list can work with changes:

1) Don't bother with the second pack of Thunderwolves, you're going to need the other 2 Fast Attack Slots

2) Use saved points for 2 Typhoon Speeders, upgrading the Sponsons on the Predators to Lascannons.

3) A single Lone Wolf is a Lonely dog...replace him with either Wolf Scouts or something else. All alone with no partner in crime will result in a wandering model of sadness.

Don't worry about going without Long Fangs, it won't kill you to let the old men drink. If you go with Auto/Las on your Predators and 2 Typhoons, you'll have ample AT to suppress enough of your opponent to get your heavy hitters in their lines.

While unholy martyr is right about predators being good, I don't like them. The only predators I like are Baal preds.

I am not sure you need to get rid of the 2nd squad of thunderwolves completely. If you take 1 tooled out squad of 3 twc and a 2nd squad with 1 wolf with a ss and claw. That would allow you to stick both Hq's on the small squad for a deathstar. With those points minus a few wolf tails and necklaces for the hq you can grab your lazcannons specially if you drop the lone wolf.

I am not sold on landspeeders and I think 6 lazcannons will do the job.

Typhoon Speeders work very well for me. I run with 2 of them in my army. There mobile and having 2 shots there great for killing transports huging cover.
