Email in: 2k SW Thunderwolf Hybrid

"Hey Kirby, i emailed a list in awhile ago with a picture of my terminator rune priest, Melek. I figured you may be interested to see how he and the army have come along since then. The list is attached as an html.

So I rolled this list up intending it to be a highly mobile, TWC - centric strike force. To the end of modility i have exchanged two of the de - facto LF ML squads for Preds, and could free up 20 points to change the third squad as well. My concern with the list right now is 1) weather i am overspending on Wolf Gaurd, as they have no transport the terminators are going to be somewhat out of step with the overall list, and I don't see them as being a pivotal unit to the overall army and 2) Do you think it would be worth including a Wolf Lord on a TW? an alternate version of the list featured two with Rune Armor, Storm Shields, Saga of the Warrior Born and a Thunder Hammer and a Frost Blade respectively, however I thought this was investing waaaaaaay too many points into them. Wonderin what you thought


Oh, also, before i forget like i did last time, the power armor rune priest goes in one of the Grey Hunter squads, and any two of the power armor Wolf gaurd split off to lead the other two

Thanks man, pink 4 life

Not enough Troops I'm afraid :p and the ACLC Preds are really static. I'd look to replace them back to ML Long Fangs (three squads of four missiles + leader works). Drop one of the Rune Priests and then with the extra points grab another GreyHunter squad.

I prefer to run the Grey Hunter squads with Rhinos so they can use their meltaguns from the top hatch and extra transports with the Long Fongs for more fire support. Not much points though to make that happen here though with the TWC (which are fine) so consider dropping the extra fire support (LasPlas) for Rhinos and spending more points on more Troops. You do have the Wolf Guard to shore up the lack of fire support though and have a better aggressive presence with the same squad and the TWC so up to you. Regardless, 15 Grey Hunters isn't enough so that needs to improve.

Two TWC Lords is also nota  good idea - you could replace one of the TWC squads with a TWC Lord and that works fine but you need the squad to go with the Lord as well which makes two of them not really viable.
