I will be going to GT's with this, and I've done very well with the list.  I'm looking for objective criticism, not "you're a cheesy bastard with 6 man Las/Plas".  If you have that comment, please include with your comment how to put a 7th man in a Razorback =)

The list looks great. The only thing you should do is try and get a Command Squad for your Master. He looks out of place with everyone in a Razorback and not him. The list isn't cheesy at all. The only way it would be if you took rhinos and only had 6 man tact. Squads in them. Maybe a Command Squad in a Razorback with heavy-bolter. Two Squad members have heavy-bolter also with tank Hunter on them. Also you could give the Squad an Apothecary. I know it would be a waste of points doing the Command Squad like that. But there would at least be some theme for your Master.

What if he just took out 1 marine from a tac squad so the commander can ride with them.  Then used the 15 points to put dozer blades on the 3 preds.

As far as the list is concerned, either the annihilator or one of those r'backs should be downgraded to heavy bolter for more horde suppression.  You seem a little anti-tank top heavy (if that is your theme, then leave as is).  The points can be used to give the commander a plasma pistol and maybe an iron halo if you make the annihilator a destructor.  Great list, as long as that commander gets in a ride you cheesy rites of battle bastard!

I would drop all the Razorbacks and pull the lascannon sponsons off and replace them with HB's - then add a wingman to each of the tornados and add 2 dreadnoughts with autocannons and missile launchers. You still have the armour density you want, but each can contest a quadrant if needed and youre doubling your vehicle-based fire power. Of course now though, youll be open to all kinds of cries of cheese.

Thanks for the comments. The list has done well so far, but I do agree that I should drop one marine to fit in the commander... I believe I'll outfit the rest of the tanks with Searchlights in order to help in the DaD or Night Fight missions.

As far as the Master goes, at one point, I had him with no weaponry... I was going to model him up waving a truce flag, but then redid it for the 1850 --> 1750 drop. Best laid plans..

As far as the Razorbacks go, I find them far too useful to drop them. Mobility, cordoning off assault troops, extra firepower, etc..

Any other comments?
