A small side project

[robomummy]

So while i was working on my ork army I recieve as a gift the Space wolves codex which means of course i am now starting a SW army. The only problem is that I dont have alot of money so i want to build an army with the fewest amount of models possible yet still be somewhat effective so here it goes.

Njal Stormcaller- terminator armour- 270pts

Bjorn the fell handed- Assault cannon- 270pts

Lone Wolf- Terminator armour, pair of wolf claws, mark of the wulfen- 80pts

Lone Wolf- Terminator armour, Thunder hammer, storm sheild- 85pts

Lone Wolf- Terminator armour, chainfist, combi-melta, melta bombs- 70pts

Grey Hunters(5)- plasma gun, power fist, wolf standard, mark of the Wulfen, drop pod- 170pts

Grey Hunters(5)- plasma gun, power fist, wolf standard, mark of the Wulfen, drop pod- 170pts

Grey Hunters(5)- plasma gun, power fist, wolf standard, mark of the Wulfen, drop pod- 170pts

Grey hunters(5)- plasma gun, power fist, wolf standard, mark of the Wulfen, drop pod- 170pts

Total Points: 1455

With this list I'll only need to buy:
-Space wolves terminators (Njal, lone wolves)- $50
-2x space wolves bloodclaws/grey hunters- $70
-drop pod- $35

I already have:
-Bjorn
-3x drop pods


Thoughts?

Having wolf claws on a model with MoTW is rather pointless as you don't get the extra attack, the reroll, nor the armor penetration of a power weapon. You also should swap atleast half of the plasmaguns for meltas as you're kind of light on AT. Always use odd numbers of drop pods, (3 isn't a bad number) and add more bodies to your GH squads. Just a few suggestions from a veteran SW player.

I agree with everything already stated. You're defiantly lacking in heavy support. Even using melta guns isn't all that reliable, especially against land raiders and monoliths. I don't know how many terminator models you have but giving Njal a body guard is almost a necessity. Otherwise he'll be picked off by lazcannons pretty quick. As for the lone wolves, I don't run them often, but when I do I usually try and keep them "hidden" amongst my grey hunters (haha dos equis). Keep 'em in cover. I prefer rhinos over drop pods 'cause they're more reliable, but once again you'd have to buy more of those. So those are my thoughts. Most of it probably involves spending more money though It looks like a good enough list to me. Just stay away from Imperial Guard.
