Here it is:

Captain
Librarian (Must REMEMBER that they can use one power every turn! @self): Usually use Gate of Infinity/Vortex of Doom
Command Squad: Company Champion: Apothocary: Thunder Hammer
Rhino for Command Squad: Dozer Blade
Tac Squad 1: 10 Marines: Flamer
Tac Squad 2: 10 Marines: Missile Launcher
Tac Squad 3 :10 Marines: Plasma Rifle (x Pts)
Assault Squad 1: 10 Marines
Assault Squad 2: 5 Marines
Terminator Squad: 5 Marines
Dreadnought

Basically, that's all I have at the moment, sans one Attack Bike.

What's my focus and how can I improve it?

Whitebear lake Minnesota.

you should have a missle launcher and flamer in the first 2 tac squads and plasma gun and multimelta in the 3 tac squad and put a flamer and power fist in your assualt squad with the 10 marines and get smoke for your rhino or just ditch the rhino all together its not always good to send one sqaud in by it self.

Well, two HQs in 1500 pts is a bit much.
One Rhino and one Dread ask for getting smoked early in the game. I'd take one large Assault squad led by a Serg with power fist.

I would definately get the extra Special/ heavy weapons you are already paying for, and you may want to decide what you want your army to do, whether you want to rip your opponents Face off or shoot him to death, What weapon do you have on the Termies? and the Dread?

Hmm, I see your points.

I need more rhinos maybe 1 per squad. Maybe drop the Librarian, though I like the idea of knocking him up to Epistolary and making a hard to kill command squad.

Hmm, will probably drop the captain then which will free up enough points for the 3 Rhinos. I'll think I'll keep the Dread as a bullet magnet.

Not sure about the Termies. Deep struck them twice and twice they've been wiped the first shooting phase afterwards. So I may either drop them until I get a LR or munch them up the board near endgame?

I think I'll keep the army general purpose, which I know has its weaknesses, until I get enough materiel to focus on down.
