Tactics

Ulric alpha strikes with either the 2 Squad of Objective secure GH or one GH and murderfang. Iron priest joins the thunderwolves with WGBL adding one more runic armor to the squad
one more independent character for challenges i want to avoid and also can repair murderfang in 5+ in his shooting phase. The thunderwolves are trying to get to cc as soon as possible
while longfangs provide fire support from cover.

PS i know the list doesnt have decent air defense but i plan to take a stormwolf and put it in the place of the 2 longfang squads. This also gives me 35 spare points for an extra SS and a frost blade in the T-wolves.

Thoughts???

Definitely take a Stormwolf. The long fangs dont seem to have any direction. 2 of each weapon seems to give them mixed roles. Especially now they only get split fire which means only one can pick a different target.

I fear murderfang will die fast. He is the only real armoured threat on the board. He will fall foul of every anti armour weapon the enemy has. And he isn't very survivable. He really needs to drop in with at least one if not two other dreads.

I think the SS TDA upgrades are an expensive choice. Power armour wolf guard pack leaders with SS do basically the same job and allows space for more guys in the pod maximising the special weapon potential.

Ulrik is better with an assault unit in an assault transport..... Ready to assault. But that's perhaps personal opinion....

Just some thoughts.
