I am trying to come up with a fun list for SW. Fun for me to play with, but more importantly fun for my opponent. My last two games where not fun. And I have a lot of models to take from.

I was planing for 2 razorback with greyhunters, and a rhino with blood claws. Escorted by characters on wolves. Long fangs in the back. (A classic 5th edition list.)

However, I need to hold home objectives. I was wondering what do SM use to hold home objectives? In theory I imagine most people will just plant 2 units of intersessors for home objective babysitting. What do you use?

SW also has the option of wolves and cyber wolves. Cheap infantry who can do actions. I am uncertain on how to build SM and SW lists.

I always have 3 razorbacks with 2x5 grey hunters (or a squad of wolf guard) and a unit of long fangs, plus a babysitting character like bjorn or a TWC lord that won't sit on objectives. Those are the units that stay in my deployment zone typically.

Cyberwolves could be an interesting option, they've been interesting since 8th actually but I never had the models to try them. Regular wolves seem too fragile for their cost to have some real value.

Primaris infantries like intercessors or heavy intercessors are also good for that job, probably hellblasters too.

It depends a lot. I personally love taking 2 cyberwolves in my lists because I can use them to screen out my deployment zone for cheap or hold back field ones. As for actually holding my objective this depends on the list but I typically take a whirlwind in my lists (2 actually) for shenanigans (fight last can not be underestimated) and protection (imperial guard basilisks will melt to whirlwind firepower, so will heavy weapons teams).

Land speeder storms and attack bikes with HB would be my choice supported by some sanguinary guard to counter charge
