I am going up against the Space Wolves for my first league game this Wednesday, and hoping to get some list / tactics advice here. I don't think he checks this forum. At least I hope not ;)

This is what I was thinking of taking -

DEATH COMPANY [300]
Chaplain, 4 Assault Death Company Units

ASSAULT DETACHMENT [300]
6 Assault Units, Captain

ASSAULT DETACHMENT [300]
6 Assault Units, Chaplain

PREDATORS [300]
4 Baal Predator

DEVASTATOR DETACHMENT [350]
4 Devastators, Blood Angels Hunter, Blood Angels TL Lascannon Razorback

DEVASTATOR DETACHMENT [350]
4 Devastators, Blood Angels Hunter, Blood Angels TL Lascannon Razorback

LAND SPEEDERS [200]
5 Land Speeder

SCOUT DETACHMENT [150]
4 Scouts, Rhinos

TACTICAL DETACHMENT [450]
6 Tacticals, Rhinos, Supreme Commander, Land Raider

TACTICAL DETACHMENT [300]
6 Tacticals, Rhinos, Blood Angels TL Heavy Bolter Razorback

I don't want to disclose too much of my strategy going in to this match, as I don't want to give away too much in case he is watching :) but astute players will probably be able to figure out what I am going for with this list. Any general advice on battling Space Wolves with Blood Angels? List critiques / comments are also appreciated.

It will be decided entirely by what he takes as his SW list :) Thinking about what I take normally, this is a reasonably matched list. Only two hunters to deal with any Air Assault may hamper your efforts though, unless you push the Devs forward to make an AA umbrella.

Yes, the idea is to push the devs forward to create an AA umbrella, however, I failed to mention that I don't think he owns any Thunderhawks. Even if he does, however, I am not too terribly concerned about an air assault on my backfield. I think BA have the mobility to at least contest anywhere on the board.

It's an obvious suggestion, but make use of your greater vehicle movement where you want to assault. You can happily move to between 30 and 35cm away, in range to assault yourself next turn but not to be assaulted back.
