EDIT removed 2nd cannon, sucked at math
EDIT 2: Would it be better to sacrifice a land speeder squad and a dreadnought for some assault terms?
Stratagems: Tank Traps and Prelim Bombardment (if allowed)
Basically hoping to use tank traps to limit transports ad pop and bomb. Wanted good speed with deadly fire power.

I'd add more troops. You can divide into 4 scoring units, true, but they're easy to take out and if your multi-meltas are tank hunting all game, they won't get anywhere.
The thunderfire cannon requires LOS in order to fire, which in cityfight can sometimes be hard to achieve. I'd drop it and the non-DP multimelta dread in favor of a third tactical squad.

Remember though that Cities of Death uses occupying unit and not scoring units.
I think I'd take out the thunderfire, as the terrain will really screw up your shots, and maybe the stock dread and go for another marine squad in rhino.

OK, tooled it a little. Especially taking into account the one annihilation mission uses Victory Points.
***HQ***
Vulkan He'Stan.....190pts
***TROOPS***
Tactical Squad w/ MMelta & Flamer in Rhino...205pts
Tactical Squad w/ MMelta & Flamer in Rhino...205pts

***FAST ATTACK***
Speeder Squadron, 1 unit, w/ HFlamer and MMelta...70pts
Speeder Squadron, 1 unit, w/ HFlamer and MMelta...70pts
Speeder Squadron, 1 unit, w/ HFlamer and MMelta...70pts
***ELITES***
Assault Terminators, w/ Thunder Hammer & Storm Shield, Deep Strike...200pts
Dreadnought w/ MMelta & HFlamer, DP, w/ Locator Beacon...160pts

Will probably split one of the tact squads into two so I can stick Vulkan in a Rhino for transport/protection.
