Was thinking a lone wolf in terminator armour with storm shield and thunder hamer to make up the extra.

I am limited to models I have or can build and paint by the tournament.

The missions are alot of capturing objectives, quarters, holding an objective. there are also 2 kill point missions so i need lots of trrops that wont conceed points.

Think of something witty..........

Consider trimming away a few upgrades from somewhere and adding a second Long Fangs Pack. The sons of Russ need fire support! Runic armor for the priest maybe?

The problem is the second long fangs squad i have is 2 lascannons and 3 plasma canons, very expensive. and i dint want to trim them as this make an easy and expensive kill point.

For the most part, it looks pretty solid. I would switch the weapon loadout by putting the power fists on the guard rather than on a GH, and saving the points on the meltabombs. That buys you an extra swing with the fist. I would nix the meltabombs on the rune priest, it should never come to him alone swinging on a walker or tank. The first GH/WG squad needs a power fist. The empty Razorback seems like a waste of points, but I understand wanting more long-range AT. Don't bother putting the lone wolf in terminator armour, if he survives that is a bad thing in KP missions. I have not run them, but I would imagine that they work better in pairs. Try to think of your troop choices in terms of how far they need to get across the field. The 5 man squad in the Razorback would guard your objective, etc...

Just noticed this, so interweaving the 2 copies of this thread. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/452121.page

EDIT: Oh wait, hang on, they're slightly different lists, only very slightly though, and from the same user.

I like the main idea of this list, but I think I can save you some points. Here's a few ideas.

The wolf tooth necklace isn't worth the points. You're probably thinking of going after characters with your RP? That's not a good idea. The RP is better off staying away from CC. He's too valuable as a support unit and not an especially tough CC guy. Also, Is he in Terminator armor or runic armor? Is that why he's baseline 120 points? Leave him in power armor and attach him to a squad that will hold an objective in the backfield. Then use LL to shoot at enemies on the other side of the board.

Personally, I like my GH squads completely kitted out just like yours. But there are some really good players who have told me that the power weapons are not worth 15 points in a GH squad. Mark of the Wulfen and a Standard should be enough to win any CC. Extra Armor might not be needed either.

Give the power fist to the wolf guard. It costs him 10 points less and he has more attacks. Lose the frost blade. I used to love them until I did the math. A wolf claw is better. Or if you've already modeled it on your mini, then just call it a power weapon. Can you put one more GH in the squad to fill the rhino?

Are these guys going to get close enough to use those meltabombs? If so, then go with a meltagun and combi-melta instead of the plasma. Other wise the meltabombs are a waste. The Razorback isn't going to drive any where. It's going to hang back and shoot it's big gun. So you don't need extra armor.


Grey Hunters x10
meltagun x2, powerfist, plasma pistol, standard, WotW

Rhino

These are your up close and personal dudes? I could go either way on the plasma pistol. Also, in a game that lasts 6 turns, you're going to be lucky if you get to shoot those melta guns at vehicles on two different turns. A better load out would be a WG with power fist and combi-melta, 9 GH with meltagun, power weapon, wolf standard and MOTW. That would kill anything.


Long Fangs x6

Razorback

If these guys ever get close enough to the enemy to use those meltabombs, then you've probably already lost the game and the meltabombs aren't going to win it for you.

Last comment. I especially like that you have lots of troops. If you're limited by time and mini's I suggest shaving some points out of this list and investing in either a wolf lord or a wolf priest. Either of those characters will add a lot of killy-ness an up to 100+ points to fill out your list. Also, it's only one model to paint / purchase.
