I like the Daemon Lord instead of the Terminator Lord, because an unlucky roll gets you doubled out. But i don't know how you are transporting them, is the Land Raider your commanders personal transport? Is your Terminator Lord going to be attaching himself to a unit?
I would suggest flamers, with cover being prevalent everywhere, flamers ignore cover saves.
Also, I would look at more troop choices, 2/3 missions are about objectives, and well, only your troops can control. But then you need to decide if you are going to play contest or control objectives. So its a personal opinion according to play style.
I also like Obliterators, they are extremely versatile, they could be modeled nurglish, but not really Deathguard. Again, personal opinion.
So it looks like you are taking 2 of your troops with the multi-meltas and going to put them into the rhinos for transport, and keeping your Plasma Gun troops back to hold an objective on your side of the board, is that the plan?

yeh lol, is it realy that easy to guess the,lord and termies are meant to distract my enemy so i can get the plague marines in a place with a good cover save,the lord is reliable and the termies are meant to be anti-termie and my own reliable anti-tank.
Thanks for advice.

demon princes are better than lords
all the PM champions should have powerfists.
obliterators are better than vindicators.

If we were to play each other in a tournament, not only would I table you, I would murder you, your family, every woman you ever loved and burn down your house. I mean, what's the point in winning if you allow people that don't take the game seriously to live? |

I hope you know, that combi-weapons cannot be either plasma or melta at your whim during the game. You have to model them accordingly and play with them as one or the other.
