imo, drop the sorcerer and take a lash prince for only 30 points more
drop the terminators
take 2 squads of 3 obliterators
drop the icons
this should put you at 1798 if our math isn't jacked up. thats 202 points to put into something better than terminators.
your troop choices are really solid, but consider taking meltas on your plague marines. they are meant to tie up assaults for a long time, or camp on objectives, and there's no point in taking expensive plasma for that, plus you can still pop tanks with the meltas if you need to

2 Princes 9 oblids less troops.

Problem you've got is Plague Marines cannot charge after firing plasma guns so why take a power fist?

Dropping that Champion, fist and some Terminators gets you another Obliterator squad, which need as you seriously lack long range fire power.

I'm thinking of replacing the plasma with melta guns, and removing one of the termicide squads
Thanks for the suggestions so far people

I like having more troops over more oblits, so I like that about the basic list.

Lash Sorc is less subject to being shot than a Lash prince, so can be a viable option.

As said, melta is much better than plasma in the PMs. In a list with 5-6 Troops you can afford to have a couple be purely shooty and do this, but you need the ability to shoot & assault, and coule do with the additional melta.

Keep the icons. Being able to perfectly place the DS-ing terminators off the rhinos is great. Same with the Oblits if the situation calls for DSing them.

Overall pretty darn solid. I usually prefer a fist in the berserkers for greater flexibility, but PWs can be nasty too.

Yeah exactly I was thinking of a fist with the berserkers.
If walkers come along, my berserkers would be screwed
I'm thinking of playtesting the power weapon, if I get too screwed by walkers then I'll replace it with a fist.

Maybe one of each. Striking at S5, I5, with 5 attacks against infantry on the charge can be awesome against pretty much anything that's not a walker or a vehicle.

Yeah that's a good idea, 1 fist one power weapon
I'll just deploy my power weapon squad on the opposite side of a walker if they have any

Keep the power weapon as Berzerkers batter infantry. If a walker is coming your way blast it to pieces. Remember, you do have krak grenades but you need 6+ to hit a walker with grenades in combat nad 6+ to glance so it's a tall order. With a fist you only get 2 attacks which is 4+ to hit and 4+ to glance which is 50/50. It's better but not massively better.

I guess that Khorne ACs get 3 attacks with power fists, on the charge even 4.

Yup 3 attacks base 4 on the charge. That would be 5 power weapon attacks at S5 I5

If your keen on using lash I suggest looking into running a Vindicator. Lash them all together and drop the pie plate on them.
