Honestly, the issue I see is too many points in HQ. The Combo is great, but you're handicapping the rest of your army to keep it. Drop either the DLord or Orikan.

Tactically, your only assault unit is fairly slow. Not a problem, but be prepared to use those Tomb Blades as assault units to protects those Troops if necessary.

I'd agree HQ is too heavy. Not sure about a Destro lord at that point level.... AND Orikan. Otherwise it looks pretty normal.

AFTER reading up on the rules regarding each HQ, I think the DLord is the better of the 2 options to keep.

While the Orikan star is nice, you're outside of a Decurion and it loses some, not all of its resiliency. You're simply outmaneuvered without a Transport, Monolith, or Veil. You picked the slowest assault combinatio we have.

With the DLord, you've still got a functional mini-star, but the DLord is more mobile to answer multiple, fast moving threats if you need to. The DLord will can also sit in the unit of Warriors granting PE for 1 or even 2 Turns before jumping him into the Guard. Yes, you can still do this if you run both, but youre still top heavy on HQ.

I played 2 games with Guard and 1 with space wolves. The guard palyers were pretty much the same with wyverns pask and blobs. SW had the thunder wolf cavalry formation allied with ravenwing. Won the day!!!
