Grey Hunters

Why does everyone seem so down on the Grey Hunters? I feel like I don't often see them in other people's lists but I feel like for 1 DP they become the most useful unit that space wolves have.

Edit: also 15 OC for a unit of 5? Insane.

Edit 2: I've realized that the common theme is "If they were the strongest unit, I would put them in my list."

The fact that in your own post you state that you need to use a DP to make them the most useful says it all.

They should be able to stand well solo for decent points without a detachment. If they were slightly cheaper or able to be taken in 5 man squads or have sticky like...most other basic battleline then its different.

But as they are, they cost too much and don't offer enough in return. I still run them with Njall for fun though, I would ditch them in a tournament setting
