I know they’re not the most competitive option but they’re such a cool unit I’m going to attempt to make them work. Goal would be to cast the psychic power to give them cover and then pop the stratagem that makes them -1 to hit. Supported by the wolf priest to reroll all failed hits in combat plus heal D3 wounds per turn and +1 attack. Blood claws in a Rhino to support them and wolf guard on bikes to clear screens. I took a grey hunter unit to put on the hunt with a melta gun to cause some issues or take an objective I can’t get to otherwise.

I also love TWC and they are actually really versatile with the wolf attacks.

I would drop the second Rune Priest for a battle leader with TH/SS for that reroll 1s to wound. Missing out on a wound roll with a thunder hammer is bad.

I would try to find points to upgrade the fists on the TWC to hammers. The consistent damage is worth it.

The Long Fangs would benefit from a missile launcher and heavy bolters to use the mortal wound stratagems.

Overall I like it. Hopefully those bikers can clear enough screens for your cavalry to get through in turn 2!
