This is the list I've been running. Kinda feels flawed, but its fun and leads to fast games, one way or t'other.
HQ
Librarian + Epistolary with The Sanguine Sword and Unleash Rage
Elite
Sanguinary Priest- no upgrades
Chaplain- no upgrades.
Troops
Assault Squad x10
Flamer x2
Power sword and combat shield Sgt
--in Redeemer Land Raider
Tactical Squad x10
Flamer
Missile Launcher
Power fist Sgt
--in Land Raider
Death Company x4
Power Sword x3
Power Fist x1
---Rhino
Fast
Baal Predator -TL Assault Cannon
In game the Librarian and Priest roll with the Assault Squad.
The Chaplain rides w the DC in their rhino to control the rage a bit.
Lost my last game due to the Tactical Squad being wiped off the objective by a hive tyrant and Rippers claiming the other.

Well, Land Raiders loose an edge when they transport troops.
I'd take one LRR and mount the DC in it. Add two troops in Rhinos and take 2 Baal Predators giving fire support.

I don't think ripper swarms count as a scoring unit, so maybe you actually tied.
Nice list btw.

Ok, here are my suggestions:
1) take out the Episolary upgrade... its un-needed. Run with Rage and Fear of the Darkness. Why? FotD will normally cause low ld assault units (T-wolf calv, etc.), as well as shooty units (Tau Firewarriors, etc.) to flee off the board. Imagine casting it on a full unit of broadsides before you charge and they fail their ld 8, running off the field? Episolary I find is unneeded 90% of the time; if yoru gonna charge, you rage. If not, run something off the board.
2) your army has no reliable way to knock out landraiders itself... change the 2 flamers to 2 meltas. Also, combat shield suuuuckkks... drop it and your PW for a PF.
3) LRR disappoint me, I find Crusaders massive dakka far better.
4) Tac squads for BA SUUUUCKKK... sure, you pay 20 pts less for the unit overall. But you lose; jump packs, cheap transports, ability to specialize, 1 more attack. I suggest taking the tacs out for another AM squad with dual flamer + PF sergeant. Also, use the points you gained from droping episolary upgrade to buy another priest
5) your DC could use more bodies. I find 6 optimal for games below 1500, 10+ for 2k+. Your kit out is a bit extreme, run 1 PW and 1 PF at this points level.
Hope my suggestions help, happy gaming!
