Like only Wulfen Murderpacks? Probably not.

Not enough ranged anti-tank or board presence. But I very well may be wrong.

**Martel732**

Anti-tank is running over and murdering them.

Depends on if your opponent can field a flying Transport or not.
Wulfen can't attack the sky and even if they weren't templates Frag can't hurt anything above AV10.

Fly around blasting the Wulfen off the field for three turns, clearing anything close to deployment zones, then drop your passengers on an objective that qualifies them for linebreaker and hopefully more then go hunt for their warlord or some more points.

Against the faster tank lists they might struggle to reach combat, notice how I said ranged anti tank.

Also, as stated, flyers would give them a hard time.

Would be pretty funny to see it against a DE venomspam army.

**Damikeis**

It is, but only if you howl before every charge.

Yep that would be fun

or anything with a couple of S8 AP3 blasts...

So, the answer would be that you'd probably do half decent against a number of armies, but there would be a fair few hard counters out there that would mean you'd get wiped out pretty easily...

biggest problem I see is that you're giving up the wulfen curse thing and you'll take a serious beating against a shooting focused army. Regardless of run+charge, wulfen still only move 6+D6 a turn.

You could do it. It'd probably be better than most only-one-thing armies.
