For my fight against the nids I was thinking that i'd drop the melta bombs, switch the Devil Dogs to Hell Hounds. Thoughts?

seems a decent list really.

You will want the hellhounds against nids, they are very good. I've never been convinced about devil dogs, they die too easily for my liking to be great anti-tank. I prefer hellhounds or bane wolves.

I think a 20 strong blob squad will be sufficient for the outflanking platoon, this will give you enough points to get al'rahem a chimera which will be very beneficial.

Not convinced about the ratlings, but I'm also not sure what else you could do with the points.

But a nice solid army. I like it.

Hope this is useful.
