Is a large blob of walking Wolf Guard Terminators competitive?  I was thinking like this:

 

Njal Stormcaller

Wolf Guard character with Combi-weapon, Cyclone launcher and thunder hammer

Pack leader with lightning claws

2x wolf guard with assault cannon and chainfist

7x wolf guard with combi-weapon and power fist

 

No idea where I will get all the combi-weapons from, but this pumps out a lot of devastating wounds and firepower in general, and also is -1 to hit so has a defensive buff from Njal.

 

Vanguard detachment might work with it and you don't need Njal

 

Get stealth and cover from incoming ranged attacks outside 12"

Can pick up and reposition the terminators for 1 CP at the end of your opponents turn

 

You can add a captain and wolf guard battle leader to the terminator brick as well

 

Whether it is competitive is a completely different story

I have a gut feeling that combi weapons WG termies don't produce a large number of dev wounds

There are mathhammer webpages that can show the expected damage but I don't use them
