Rather new to 40K, with half a dozen games under my belt. Of all the games, I manage to win or hold on to armies that are mostly melee focued or half/half. However, when I played an IG or other shooter based, I got torn to shreds. Here is the break down of what I got,

HQ Rune Priest RA, Living LIghtining, JoW, CoS
Grey Hunters X9 MoW, Wolf Standard, PG

RP and GH X 9ride in Rhino

Grey HuntersX10 MoW, Wolf Standard, Plasma Gun X2 , Rhino

Long Fangs X6 with MLX5

Long Fangs X6 with LS X2, HB and MM

Now here is where I'm switching out, once had a group of Wolf Guard but I'm making the switch to Thunderwolf Calvary

Wolfguard X5 with TH, Wolf Claw, Storm Bolter and Powerfist

now

Thunderwolf Calvary X3 with Thunderhammer, MoW and Storm Shield

Now that's taken care of, what should I ad on to it. I know I need a drop pod or two.

I second dropping the WG for TWC, but you can toss the Thunder hammer and MOTW from the TWC. Wulfen is pointless as they already have a high number of rending attacks. The hammer is not bad, but I would rather have the free rending at I4. Use the points to get a second shield.

The second long fang squad is a bit mixed up, better to have all the same weapon or 2 max, but I figure you built them that way.

Wolves are better in CC than most other armies, but die to shooting like regular marines. The rest of your list is solid, and drop pods can help but are not required to win.
