I’ve got a list I’ve been doing quite well with lately I wanted to share with the group. I really try to get the most out of my troop choices by taking smaller squads to fit extra power fists in and trying my best to hold back my HQ’s to maximize the amount of turns I can use their buffs (and take advantage of the 6” heroic intervention)

I also save the points on the flyer by foot slogging the Wulfen. Using cover along with the priests psychic powers and -1 to hit stratagem has kept them alive well enough. The new unit of infiltrators helps put a second troop target in my opponents face they need to dedicate firepower to turn 1 as well as the two squads of long fangs.

The WGBL and Wolf Lord buffing my charging troops (+1 to hit on the charge, reroll 1’s to hit and wound, +1 attack Wulfen stone or reroll charges (if Wulfen are nearby) and a further +1 attack of/when Saga of the Wulfkin is unlocked, and if I see my opponent has a deadly assault unit positioning my Wolf Lords fight last relic) I think has great balance. I also keep the second WGBL near the long fangs to let them reroll 1’s to hit and wound.

The wolf guard bikes also provide amazing anti chaff support as well as zooming around to plug holes/take objectives.

The infiltrators also provide great anti deep strike ability due to their 12” bubble also holds a big role in stopping those pesky deep striking bombs of your choice.

Thank you for sharing
Have you considered the formation? since you have a lot of battle leaders and blood claws that can benefit from the stratagem and their saga of the savage is like a second saga of the wulfkin for mega tons of attacks.
