2x Leman Russ- 300

The PCS and the 2 vendettas carrying vets will push a flank. The Platton with sit back on an objective and lay down lots of shoots. Leman Russ's will each take a corner of the deployment zone and let the battlecannon's do thier thing. The other group of vets in the chimera will push the opossite flank of the Vendettas and hopefully draw some fire and if not they can do some major damage.

Overall it looks reasonable, quite balanced.

Don't split you pushes up. An elite army will take one on and overwhelm it before worrying about the other.

The PCS could do with some assault weapons to take on anti-deepstriker duty. If you have a blob unit a comissar will make it better. As would an ADL to take on flyers should they arrive before yours, or after yours and take yours out.

The vendettas are possibly wasting points on the heavy bolters. These are primarily anti-tank / anti-terminator flyers, leave taking out infantry to the humble guardsman and russes.

I could be tempted to sink an autocannon or two into the guard blob. Some people don't like HWS, you do need to keep them out of range and incover to make the ost of them so jst bear it in mind when deploying.

Could i put those vets in the chimera back with the platton to provide the plasmas and demos to take on the deep strike units ?

If you dropped the flimsy HWSs and turned those russes into exterminators with plasma cannons you'd have better firepower and 70 extra points to spend.

Only one Vendetta?? I'd take two or three if I were you, because the chance that one Vendetta will come in is very low, and you'll have little to no flyer support if it gets taken down by Interceptor or Skyfire .-.

few changes with out adding any models
first the ccs the reason these guys have your melta guns now is because they can fly in on the bird get out and twin link themselves against something in your opponents back field . yes I know you will give away slay the warlord but that is only 1 vp and most objectives are 3 so better that then a troop choice.

the other is creating drive by plasma vets . these guys have the range , protection, firepower and manouverabilty to get where they are needed and get the job done.

personally though I would drop demo of all the vets and give the pcs flamers and possibly get a melta squad to go in the other vendetta

if you like what I've suggested and have more models or are willing to buy more then write up a new list and pm me for more advice

so far so good though buddy keep up the good work

Looks like you are trying for a diffuse Gunline / Mechanized hybrid build. I like it, looks like a fun list to play, with many strategic and tactical options. As they say, better stat lines favor the inexperienced, better options favor the shrewd.

6x autocannons without an ADL or favorable terrain, these will get chewed up rather quickly. If you tend to play with a lot of ruins or area terrain, fine. If not, remember that T3 suffers ID from S6 :(

Vets-185 consider Harker on this squad instead of the Chimera, or both if you have the points, but I always feel a little twitchy throwing a 6" range Demo charge out of the firing hatch.

2x Leman Russ- 300 These have been going out of fashion recently, but I still love them. S8 gets around most FNP units and AP3 gets through most armor. Take the HF over the HB

I would drop the footsloging IP and add some more toys that fit the theme better. Consider...
More Chi-Vets
ADL + Quad-Gun
Marbo
3rd Vendetta
Manticore

If you absolutely want to do IP, consider Alrahem and add some SWS with 2xflamers,1xDemo

If you enjoy this style of play, consider IG with GK allies, specifically Coteaz and 2 units of Henchmen. They are very flexible killers

Good luck
