TACTICS

Each wolfguard battle leader joins a TWC squad, and charge forward. The two GH pods with objective secure drop to capture objectives
and hit my opponent. The longfangs provide long range fire support.

Ok. I am no expert, but doesnt it make sense to give the drop-podding GH's melta weapons instead of plasma? So they can destroy vehicles when they deepstrike?

Whats the plan behind the FA drop pod? Servitors goes into them?

What is your AA-plan?

The one squad has melta and the other has plasma for more versality. Plasma has more shots and its better for heavy infantry MCs. The fast attack pod is there to make 3 pods in total and drop 2 in first turn due to drop pod assault.
I ll ignore flyers cause the purpose of the list is to be fast and capture objectives while also being durable to enemy fire. Flyers cant capture objectives and their shooting doesn scare me. Servitors are there to fill 2 compulsory elite slots in order to get the +1WS for my thunderwolves

Part of the problem that I can see is that the only Obsec units you have are stationary/footslogging. Its not really a wolfstar, and its not really an ObSec mobile army either.

If your mission requires mobility, you are going to suffer for it because your TWC do not have ObSec. Your tactics are fairly immobile due the list you have taken, its hit and hope aggression, and you are unlikely to table your opponent in that manner. You are basically saying you want to grab 2 Objectives, and hope you can pick up points by destroying units in CC and getting things like Linebreaker, killing the warlord etc.

Why not look into some wolf guard with combi weapons as one of your elite slots? An maybe use a Rune priest with the 10 man GH squad to give you some Deny the Witch ability and a little bit of your own Psychic power? Im just about to eat, so I am not thumbing through my codex now with greasy fingers, but there has to be a better way to build that doesn't rely on static units holding 2 objectives. A lot of your planning should take into account how much cover can you have to move your TWC cavalry around? If your TO wont be using a lot, then maybe use some Fenrisian Wolves as Ablative wounds to help move you across the board. Also, will they let you take 2 armour relics on one character? (Armour of Russ, Helm of Durnfast)

I would say that you don't quite have the points at 1500 to play around with 2 CAD's in this way, unless you are willing to swap things around.

What are the servitors for?

The idea is to drop the 2 objective secure units to 2 enemy base objectives. Hold one of my base objective with longfangs and try to get other objectives with the two squads of twc along with the 2 independant characters who are able to split up later in the game to cover more ground. I think 1 runepriest wont do me any good cause mastery lvl 2 is too low. Wolfguard with combies are for one turn and after that they are useless.

** the servitors are there as compulsory elite slots for the company of great wolf detachment which gives me +1ws to twc

I'm inclined to agree. 1500 is a little short to run two detachments.

If personally just run a CotGW and go TWC and WG strong.

You can accomplish the same feat but leverage the formation perks.

I'd throw in a rune priest too and run him with the long fangs for buffs.
