Ran this list last night and was surprised on how effective it was, kinda threw it together in rush, played against on our more competitive players and honestly stomped him. Any C&C is welcome

Ran the whole thing in a pack. I used the Rhinos and Razorback to screen for the Land Raider from early Melta weapons. Then would concentrate bolter fire on a unit then mop up with the Terminators. Pedro stayed in the Land Raider giving me an extra attack to anyone that got assaulted or was assaulting. List definitely needs some revision but I like the basic theory.

Your list looks entertaining, I'm sure how competitive it is, but thats ok. As far as competitive advice goes, 1 land raider is not a huge threat, but at 1500 points its hard to fit in 2, and it would drastically change the list, also I'm not sure 5 man sternguard are that powerful, but I've never played with them.

On to the real critiques I have. I would take all hammers and storm shields in the termie squad. Your list lacks a anti infantry and focuses too much on anti tank. Unless you play against a lot of full mech lists, I would think about adding in some anti infantry. I would suggest cutting the melta guns off of the tac squads for flamers and add the 3rd combi melta to the sternguard, I love having mirrored units. Also, I would change your land raider into a land raider crusader or redeemer with a multi melta, its a lot more shooty and I dont think you need the antitank. Finally, I would swap the twin-linked lascannons on your razors for las/plas, your lascannons are a little less effective, but you gain an additional weapon in case of a weapon destroyed and to shoot with.

Hope some of my ranting helped give you some ideas, good luck.

Yeah that would be nice to get some las/plasma but I don't feel like making them hoping they are in the march models released
