Continuing on from the previous list, here's a rather fun group I threw together to face a Tyranid friend of mine. I know, everyone knows that you should slug it out with the bugs from range before tying it up, but I wanted to see how they could handle 11 Thunderwolves on the Charge!

H.Q.

Canis Wolfborn
2x Fenrisian Wolves -205

Wolf Lord
Thunderwolf Mount, Storm Shield, Frost Blade, Wolf Tooth Necklace, Saga of the Warrior Born, 2x Fenrisian Wolves -250

Troops

Grey Hunters x6
Flamer, Mark of the Wulfen, Razorback -145

Grey Hunters x6
Flamer, Mark of the Wulfen, Razorback -145

Fenrisian Wolves x8 -64

Fenrisian Wolves x8 -64

Fast Attack

Thunderwolf Cavalry x3
Storm Shield, Thunder Hammer -210

Thunderwolf Cavalry x3
Storm Shield, Thunder Hammer -210

Thunderwolf Cavalry x3
Storm Shield, Frost Blade -205

Total: 1498

I don't really have to describe what would happen other than the Grey Hunters would be Objective Grabbers/ Campers and that everyone else would have a party with the bugs. Thoughts, comments, criticisms?

Calvary was the hill Jesus was crucified on - you'd be looking for cavalry. :p

Anyway, the one thing I'd worry about would be the lack of troops - while Canis has got his Lord of Wolves stuff going on, I suspect you might be better server with another mech Hunters mob. Remember that if not cavalry, infantry in APCs can at least be dragoons!

To be honest, Objective Grabbing is kinda secondary with this list. I really Designed it to just be monstrously killy. I would consider dropping the Thunder Hammers down to Wolf Claws and exchanging a Fenrisian Wolf Pack for some more Grey Hunters in a Razorback. We'll see how this goes.
