Infiltrating Broodlord

You TW Lord don't need the TH. Not saying it's a bad choice but a WC will work better math-wisely. Even vs T6.
Your Rune Priest don't need the Runic Armor, just give him a Chooser of the Slain that works well with LL.
You're very low in armor, just 3 with 2 of them very fragile.
Due to your HQ pricy choices obviously you don't have enough pts to give your model some safe hull.
Does Logan + the 5x WG unit is so necessary? To really profit of the Logan investment you would be better investing on a full WG list. In this setup he is just sucking precious pts imho.

Every molecule will be useful
6000+ pts NIDS
( ) 2000 pts growing to 4000... |

Logan making your single unit into troops may not be worth the points invested in doing so. You have 2 HQ slots filled with 275 point models. Making Grimnar really work for you constitutes taking Wolf Guard as troops and they are more expensive than Grey Hunters. Although the additional attack is nice, when running Logan Wing, I prefer pure TDA (this is only my opinion, and the over all community has already declared that it is a bad one at that!!) for style if nothing else.
At 2K you should be looking towards at least four troop choices, and you have three. That's the thing with higher points models like TDAWG, you end up low on the points needed for other packs.
You have a better chance of hitting things with two Las Cannons in your LF's says mathhammer.
If you want your 'star' to really 'shine', I suggest putting a couple more models into it and giving them SS as well. The more bodies here, the better.
And the TDAWG in the LR need Wolf Clasws and a Wolf Priest to go with them for a lot more killy.
You can also move Grimmy over to a LF pack and use his relentless ability to move and shoot all those missiles. This is one of my favorite things to use Grimnar for.
End of Line

Can you hear the call of the North Star?
Feel its longing in your heart
This bond is eternal sworn through blood
At the end we will stand as one!
Even if the daylight dies
Our horde marches on and on
If we should fall down to the ground
We'll rise again and never give up!

Logan with the LFs+ a wolf guard with cyclone ML and a drop pod that sounds cool. do you think logan would ever get into combat? Surley relentless isnt worth the 275 and the troop choice.
Been thinking about cutting a squad of long fangs to get a wolf priest + drop pod for the remaining logan/fang squad.
Thanks for the thoughts so far

Get rid of logan, use those points to get some decent troops choices. The way I see that list, you have loads of sup par units and an overly expensive HQ choice.
You've put all these points into a redeemer and some terminators which is grand but you've got to make use of them which means putting them into close combat, the models you have aren't maxed out for cc and seem to be tooled out for a good round of shooting. All that is fine but there are better squads for shooting and better for cc, you should probably think carefully about what you want them to do.
If you want to run twc you need to have more then one squad otherwise they'll get shot to bits. At 1750 I'd be running 2 squads of 3 and 3 mounted troops choices.
At that point range you're looking at a hell of a lot of firepower on the board and 2 weak tanks won't be enough to keep the enemy from focusing on the landraider. Those babies are tough but they are not unstoppable and need to be supported by a reasonable number of tanks.

Had a good bit of success with this list. I still expect it to get bashed for the use of 2 very expensive units but the LR gives me potential getting up in the enemys face fast delivering thats scoring + logan, the twc's threat range lets me respond to any outflank or deep strike while moving up as well, while the rune and wolf preists with their grey hunters have been really usefull supporting or baiting or whatevers.
