I have yet to lose a game with this list. You have 4 squads of intercessors for obj secured needs. You have LF with missile launchers to take out either high toughness or hordes. In a pinch they can also be used to take out tough 5 3 wound grav primaris troops or Death Guard troops. The TWC with the Chapter Master on TWC running with them is the distraction carnifex supreme. 

 

Your opponent will have to worry about the them being in his front lines quickly in the game. Your Dreads follow behind mowing things down as opportunity presents itself. You keep the terminators in deep strike to deploy at a spot where you need them. The Librarian is there to help shut down enemy psykers (hence the relic) as well give you some support. Ragnar is, well, RAGNAR so that's a literal beat stick in the army.

 

Essentially this list provides so much target saturation that your 4 squads of Intercessors can quietly squat on objectives while your opponent has to deal with all this threat right in their face and also with the shooting. I have gone first and second and won with this list. Hope it helps others. For Russ and the All Father!

I like your list.  I could be wrong, but doesn't the Armor of Russ give you a 4++ like a storm shield already.  Also do you think that replacing the missiles for lascannons would work? Seems from here the frags from the missiles wouldn't be needed because of the ridiculous amount of dakka from the dreads. Thanks for posting the list!

Thank you for the kind words. You take the Armor of Russ on the TWC Wolf Lord Chapter Master to make sure he and/or the TWC fights first. If nothing else the tough beat stick on the other side fighting them will always fight LAST which is huge when you consider how crazy some of the things out there are now (see: Nightbringer from Necrons and Mortarion from DG). 

 

You can replace the missiles for LAS if you want but the points might not be the same. Personally I like the missiles because I can get either 4 heavy hitting shots off a big target OR use them to really pound some horde or tough to remove marines where you just need even more dakka to put them down.

Armour of Russ + Storm Shield is still worth doing as it means that character still has a 2+ save vs Ap-1 attacks. Considering that buckets of chainsword attacks are growing in popularity, there is definitely value in doubling down on defence against high volume / low damage attacks.
