Seems odd to see a BA army without ASM. I'm not too sure on this list, other than the termie center it just doesn't sit well with me. BA's are good at 2 things-fast vehicles and DoA. This list only has some of the former and none of the latter.

Base on what you are being faced with, I might do a full DoA army with 2 squads of flamer/PW to deal with the hordes.

Is the tourny a wysiwyg? or are you allowed proxies? What do you own that you could make any army out of?

It's wysiwyg which is why i can't do a whole lot of things.

i only have one full squad of jump packs, and enough to make 1 other squad of ASM but without jump packs, i got tons of plasma and melta, i can have up to 4 full tactical squads, 4 rhino/razorbacks, a predator, a baal, crusader, godhammer, a vindicator, 1-2 devastators, mephiston, lemartes, dante, seth, astorath, tycho, a couple libbys and a few chaplains, 5 hamminators, 5 claws, cyclone termies, enough for 2 squads of death company, a furioso, libbyoso, stormraven, 3 priests, and a death company dread

I'd run all your LR-one for Termies, 1 for a DC squad without JP. Take Mephy with that Termie squad. Take 2 full take squads with Razorbacks (Combat squad the m if you want). The Stormraven and the Dread. Between the LR with 2 super hard CC units and the SR and dread that enough killing power with traget saturation. The combat squads in the Razorbacks can be used to take objectives and take what ever ML you have and leave them to shoot (Use the ML for the Devs to fill it out)

Do your tactical squad sergs have 'sword and 'pistol? If so they can be part of assault squad. Also the flamer model works, though I would prefer melta.
This may mean you only need 3 assault marines per squad to fit into a razorback.

It isn't so crazy to run tactical squads in stormravens. If they have a powerfist they are not so different to assault marines but with the advantage that they can shoot if needs be.

dreads and cyclone termies would make a reasonable slow wall. Especially the librarian dread can wing to keep up with raiders and the termies can go 6'' and shoot with razorbacks. Compare this to the squad of 10 assault termies who have no real method to get into assault.

2 Raiders is a major risk but when it works you'll have plenty of fun.

I'll give what i have more thought, thank you both for the input.

Will definently go with more ASM and Razorbacks
