what do you think ????

Suggestion: Drop the dreadnought, which is shunned by most serious players because of its' 1/3 chance to disobey your commands every turn. Likewise, the defiler could be replaced by a possessed vindicator for fewer points: The vindicator is arguably more survivable as long as you protect its flanks - a vindicator can shelter behind/beside a land raider or terrain in a way the defiler can't, because it's so damn big! and a lot of people don't really rate the defiler's combat power that high - too few attacks.

You could use the dreadnought's points to squeeze in some terminators - these could go in the LR with the sorcerer, but then you'd have to buy another rhino, and might want some termi armour for the sorc. Or you could just get deep striking terminators with combi-weapons. Either of these are good, punchy squads. If you go the 'in-a-landraider' route, which goes nicely with the sorcerer's flame weapon, the needed points could come from the oblits. 2 oblits are still a versatile shooting unit, so cutting one to buy men elsewhere seems a good idea.

Hope that helps!
