I am not sure what IG are bringing for you besides a Vendetta and a couple cheap scoring units. I agree with Dreal that Vindicators don't really fit in this list. The reason why is you have not other tanks for them to get cover from, and they are not going to help your podded troops turn 1 because of their short range. I'd drop the vindicators, pick up 1 squad of long fangs, and add an aegis + gun an IG squad to fire. If you can spare some more points make the air vets not completely worthless when they get out. 3x plasma, melta, or grenade launchers even. Gotta do something with them or don't bother yah know?

Thats true but I have to agree with the others. There not as good a choice as other things you can take in a SW/ IG list. Take more fangs. Also why the razorback for the long fangs? Seems like a waste as you wont move very much.

Imperial Guard HQ Command squad, company commander, 2x lasgun, 1x lascannon 70 pts Troops Veteran squad, veteran sergeant, 8x lasgun, 1x grenade launcher 75 pts Veteran squad, veteran sergeant, 6x lasgun, 1x grenade launcher, 1x heavy bolter 85pts Fast attack Vendetta gunship, 2 twin linked lascannons on wings, and sponson heavy bolters 140pts Your CCS seems adequate, although 1 LC in a list that can take ML spamming long-fangs seems pointless. You seem to be missing plasma in your list, so maybe 4x plasma guns, a plasma pistol (or two) and throw them in a chimera for some mobile anti- TEQ. The veterans are crap. Give them something other than literally the worst weapons available to them. Grenade launchers suck. Suck so hard. Give them melta or plasma. Similarly, heavy bolters aren't great, try out an auto-cannon. Also, where are they going? 10 guardsmen aren't in power armor, they die without a metal box or come decent cover. That is, chimera them up, throw them in fliers or get an ADL. Plasma vets would work great with a mobile CCS too, since you can get out and recieve " FOMT" from the CCS still in the transport. Remember, you only need one troop choice for allies, so instead of two crap squads, make it one good squad. One Vendetta isn't going to do a lot. It'll just make your opponents AA worth taking. You need 2 or more for the flier to be effective. The HB sponsons on them aren't great, just mixing weaponary, keep them vanilla or if you want anti-horde get a multiple rocket pod valkyrie with HB sponsons... or even Long Fangs for something much better. If you want anti-tank, then you don't need the HBs, but still; you need more than one flier for them to be worth it. It works like rhinos/razobacks/chimeras/trukks/whatever. Target saturation so the weapons designed to take them out can't deal with them. You can take 3 in a squadron, and I regularly bring 2 and a valkyrie with wolves as my allies. Works great. On a side note: Why the hell would you put sniper rifles on wolf-scouts?! That's insane. If you want snipers, put them on the crappy grenade launcher vets.

Star Trek taught me so much. Like, how you should accept people, whether they be black, white, Klingon or even female...

my idea with the IG was:
command squad: camp in corner or other nice spot with las cannon
1 vet squad(HB one) goes in the vendetta and get dropped off on objective for temporary holding, other squad moves towards where its needed, might be LF if ifantry is getting near, or to the GH, they will never be the priority target so i dont worry much about them
the vendetta is pretty much there for anti flyer, and if possible some armor popping

I like the list for the most part, but I'd suggest a couple changes. The 2 Vet squads are very immobile and vulnerable, they need some cover. Also, while Vindis are awesome, you might want another squad of Long Fangs (a single squad is good, but not "great"  ). The scouts are also a bit unnecessary. Here's a proposed revision, feel free to change it how you will (or ignore it completely):
HQ
Rune Priest (Chooser of the Slain)
Company Command Squad (L3x Flamers, 1x Heavy Flamer, Camo Cloaks)
ELITES
5x Wolf Guard (Terminator Armour, Power Weapon, Storm Bolter, Land Raider Redeemer with Multimelta)
TROOPS
10x Grey Hunters (2x Melta, Drop Pod)
10x Grey Hunters (2x Melta, Drop Pod)
10x Grey Hunters (2x Melta, Drop Pod)
10x Veterans (Lascannon)
10x Veterans (Lascannon)
FAST ATTACK
Vendetta Gunship
HEAVY SUPPORT
6x Long Fangs (5x Missile Launcher)
6x Long Fangs (5x Missile Launcher)
Vindicator (Storm Bolter)
FORTIFICATION
Aegis Defence Line (Quad Gun)
TOTAL: 2000pts
The Rune Priest should probably be with the Long Fangs and therefore should get the Divination Discipline so he can give them Prescience. Figured I'd put the Wolf Guard in a Redeemer to save 10pts. The Company Commander should be manning the Quad Gun, the squad's Camo Cloaks will give them better cover saves, and the flamers are in case they get charged. The other Veteran Squads should try to camp backfield objectives. All-in-all, it should be a hard-hitting army with some fluffy choices (the Wolf Guard and Vindicator). I'd just see if the Grey Hunters can do well enough on their own before the Wolf Guard come to lend a hand - watch they don't get destroyed on arrival.
