TACTIC

The army is devided in 3 parts. Wulfen and hellblasters go on the hunt, arriving as reinforcements on turn 2 (part 1). Bloodclaws enter the rhino and the stormfang and along with the HQs march forward (part 2). Longfangs deploy in the razroback to avoid first turn fire if i go second and first turn they dissembark in a ruin using keen senses to ignore modifiers to hit. Razorback caprures objectives and provide fire support.

If I played wolves, this would be more or less how I'd play them.

I might take aggressors rather than hellblasters and I might give the longfangs plasma cannons rather than lascannons, but I don't remember if longfangs reroll 1s. Overall seems like a nice list.

They do reroll 1's, but I would just have two Longfang units, one Las, one Plasma, they have longer range, and automatically reroll 1's with no need for an HQ, maybe a small unit of Grey Hunters to stop a drop behind and charge. So you just set them in the back field, and pick at anything that looks dangerous, the opponent is forced to focus the Longfangs and get rid of them, also having a cover save if you set them up high in something, or the Wulfen before they do too much damage to the back lines.

5 men Wulfen is not enough. If I take them, I would take at least 7 men in one squad and 4 of them taking TH/SS.

Extra wulfen are always good but they are expensive as hell. I agree with danielle, aggresors can be amazing when outflanked and hit pretty hard in combat too

Thnx for feedback, i own 3 aggressors the other alternative is to trade them for the helblasters and use the spare points for another wulfen with TH/SS + a hunter killer on the razorback. 1500 pts on the nose. The second longfang squad with plasmas its not that appealing because they die fast and helblasters on the hunt do the job better because you will be in rapidfire range and use the wolf lords aura for rerolls. They have double wounds, they dont get -1 to hit for moving and when in rapid fire they shoot 2 times wich is better than d3 shots for almost the same points

5 wulfen with 2 TH/SS are good, unless they are a priority target. With the stratagem that let them outflank and 2-3 units that support the army in melee they will do fine. Of course if you want them to be the core of your melee threat you need a bigger squad. In my experience the combination between 3 assault oriented units, including 5 wulfen, and 2 buffing characters works very well.

I a list like lonewolf81's one I'd take more wulfen since they're the only melee specialists. Alternatively I'd cut the rhino, hellblasters and power fists in order to add a unit of 4-5 TWC and maybe also a wolf priest to support them and wulfen.
