I'll be most likely going up against blood angels. Just a friendly game, but I'd appreciate any input.

Wolfguard with combi plasma in with the drop pod, others in rhinos, rune priests in rhinos. Idea is to coordinate drop pod with scouts. If not, they'll just bring the rapid fire.

Looks pretty good, but you might want to reconsider that lone drop pod, as it will be required to drop on your first turn, which has its own benefits and detriments. More likely than not, a lone drop pod is handing your opponent a couple of kill points, without them making their points cost back in turn.

Also, I believe that it is statistically better for a GH to take Mark of the Wulfen instead of a Power Weapon, but YMMV.

If you could free up some points, I'd also suggest that you add a WG to that squad of Scouts, an extra Melta shot and a Power Fist boost their combat efficacy quite a bit. You could probably get away with dropping the second Rune Priest; at this points level two of them are unnecessary.

wolf guard mostly as before, just added one to scouts, wolf priest replaces rune priest in squad with mark of the wulfen, squad on foot will camp objective or just sit back and prevent the long fangs from getting jumped. thoughts?
