pretty good looking list there!

a few things i've spoted though, if you don't mind some critiquing;

your scouts: drop the plasma gun for a meltagun. reason being that the plasma gun is a rapid fire weapon so if you shoot with it, you can't assault that turn... and the pistols + ccw's sorta screams 'assault unit!'

your infantry squads: make sure all your squads are even numbered. ie: keep each squad to 6/8/10 etc... models as this is very important for scoring unit purposes! even numbered units maintain their "scoring unit" status longer than odd numbered units.
for example: your unit of 7 grey hunters loses scoring unit status once they suffer 4 casulties. but if they were 8-strong, it would take 5 casulties, or else drop them down to 6-strong... still takes only 4 dead, but now you don't give up as many victory pts as the 7-strong unit does

other than that, it's a fairly solid list... sure the crusader is a bit of a pts sink in 1500pts games, but it's got a tone of firepower!
the only unit i see not being overly effective is your blood claw assault squad simply because it lacks numbers...

cheers!

Hm good idea with the melta gun, you have to remember that the blood claws have 4 attacks on the charge, so with the wolf guard leader thats 8 powerfist attacks on the charge and 4 power weapon attacks, plus the 12 normal, and cause its blood claws with jump packs i can only add 1 more man to the squad. This is an older variant of my army list though. in the new one i have a wolf guard leader with plasma pistol and thunder hammer attached to the scouts and the squads are maxed out.

Fast attack

5 Blood Claws with jump packs, bolt pistols+close c. weapons,power weapon, power fist, frag+krak grenades.

Heavy Support

>> Good list bro, but us Wolves get few enough men as it is, but thats not to say your army is bad, just needs tweaked a little.
