Recently at my LGS i played in a tournament and won it with 2 Major Victories and a Massacre... the only reason i didnt have 2 Massacres was i wasnt able to control 6 objectives. There is another tournament coming up but the points are dramatically lower than they where last tournament. I need help trying to come up with another OP list with fewer points.

My old list 2.5k:

HQ - Emperor's champion - Accept. 140
HQ - Marshall w/ LC, SS, Terminator armour, Adamanite Mantle 180
EL – Assault Terminators x9, SS/TH x 9 360
EL – Assault Terminators x8, SS/TH x 8 320
TR – Initiates x 7, PF, Meltagun, Rhino, Smoke, 190
TR – Initiates x 8, PF, Meltagun, Rhino, Smoke 206
TR – Initiates x 8, PF, Meltagun, Rhino, 203
FA – Landspeeder Typhoon x 2 140
FA – Landspeeder Typhoon x 2 140
FA – Landspeeder Typhoon x 2 140
HS – Vindicator, PotMS, EA 160
HS – Vindicator, PotMS, EA 160
HS – Vindicator, PotMS, EA 160

Now what i was thinking, everyone knew me after this tournament with the CC army no one even attempted to shoot down my landspeeders or vindicators until it was to late. Now i dont have the points to spend on 700pts work of terminators so i decided to go from another approach with my BT this time make a shooty list with a Pyshic hood (alot of Grey Knights, Blood angels and Nids at my LGS) So i needed a new threat to be present to push up the field so this is what i came up with.

New Tourny List 1.5k

Emperor's champion - AtWKtW 110
Dreadnought, Venerable, EA 130
Dreadnought, EA 110
Dreadnought, EA 110
Crusader Squad x 5,Lascannon 95
Crusader Squad x 5,Lascannon 95
Crusader Squad x 5,Missile Launcher 90
Land Speeder x 2 Typhoon Missile Launchers x 2 140
Land Speeder Typhoon Missile Launchers 70
Land Speeder Typhoon Missile Launchers 70
Vindicator, PotMS, EA 160
Vindicator, PotMS, EA 160
Vindicator, PotMS, EA 160

The one thing that scares me with this list is the lack of my troop mobility, but there is only one mission in the BRB that i have to go capture objectives. With that being said i use to use my rhinos to block LOS for my Vindicators for either cover saves or a turn where they cant shoot me. Now with this list i will have to statergicaly place my Dreadnoughts on the field and lets face it they dreadnoughts will probli b one of the first things to go, its like Avatars or Ctans they are big creatures that never reli do anything but soak up fire. Sunday I have a game scheduled with a buddy who is also playing in the tourny (Tau or Thunderwolf SW). Any comments or critiques would b greatly appreciated!
