Nothing to add. Is it conceived for fun or competitive play?

I know its hard to fit into 1750 but you should try to get a Ravenwing bike squad instead of scouts. Preferably in a troop pick. Mobility and being able to claim objectives from afar and teleport homers. Need I say more.

Do you find the assault cannons missing alot? I hit at 50% clip it seems.
I'm looking at running CML's. They give more HtH ability or more shooty if you arm with stormbolter, too.
I like 1 unit of bikes if possible. Pending FAQ of RW turbo boosting.

I agree with the above.
Pure infantry is good, but adding a RW Bike Squad is even better if you want a list with a lot of punch.

Why would Necrons rape? You have 2+ save. If they have heavy destroyers you might cry, but that's IF. Monolith will live forever, too
I found Rogue Trader to go to this weekend. I too, will be trying my DW @ 1850 pts.

Im confused too, the termies should wail on the crons.
there is nothing (very little) AP2 in cron army, and even the lord is only I4, so bels or a GM/Lib or IChappie will dominate him.

Wich weapons are you buying for your Termis? Are all going to have the standard Fist+Storm Bolter?
How are you thinking you will deploy? Are you gonna use the Death Wing Assault? With how many units?
The idea of the six troop choices being Termis sounds funny and fluffy, but I don't really think is a effective build for Tournament playing.
What are you gonna do against hordes? Against heavy tanks?
If you don't want to use a couple (or three) Land Raiders (wich in my opinion are really great), because is not what you had in mind designing the list, you should at least consider on including two minimal Ravenwing squads with 2 meltas just for anti-tank. It´s respectful with the Death Wing´s fluff and it would be really useful.
What do you think?

Just two things:
1. English is not my mother tongue. I´m really sorry for the misunderstandings and the kicks to the dictionary. Don´t be too hard on me, OK?
2. With the best intentions sometimes comes the worst advice. But you asked for it, didn't you? |

Oh! And I would use CML for the Termis instead of Assault Cannon. It would help against Hordes and Tanks (at least, light ones).
I don´t really like Rending weapons anymore, it tend to be only useful against MC, and for dealing with them, you have thousands of Power Fists, so you should be not afraid.
