Okay, so I got Veterans and Command Squads for rushing the enemy or objectives with melta etc..., with tanks providing support, and I have 2 Infantry squads to protect my Manticore and Mortars(Mortars also used as more support in CC in case I need a little to push a CC battle in my favour). Bane Wolves are for Anti Infantry, since I think I'm a bit lacking.

How is it? Good enough for tourneys? This is just a test competitive list, not really for any particular tourney.

Pretty standard competitive list, I've played very similar armies and found them to be hard as nails. I don't think you need so many dozer blades though. I realise the units that have them depend on getting into close range, I think it's a good tactical choice, but not for every such unit. Unless you play with an unholy amount of terrain, not all the targets your opponent presents can be seperated from all your hunting units by terrain, see what I mean?

So my only advice is to cut 2 dozers from the melta veterans and 1 from a banewolf. Use the 30 points to upgrade the mortar squads to autocannons. Although the mortars are cool, you already have flamers galore for light infantry, and a manticore for barrage. What you're light on is the ability to bust transports from long range (multilasers aren't great at this, and are a no-hoper against AV12).

Two alternate ways to resolve the transport issue - cut one mortar squad as well as some dozers, add another squad and a commissar to the infantry platoon, exchange flamers for autocannons, use as an objective-holding blob.
OR
Exchange a heavy support choice (this would probably be the demolisher) for a 2xHydra squadron.

Aside from that issue, this is a very strong list, I'm sure you'll wreck face.

Sound advice from above

Oi, you're just happy because when I say "I've played very similar armies and found them to be hard as nails" you know your army is one of those!

lol. You played my Guard? I thought it was just Marines when I nearly tabled you

Oh, when you coming back over here?

I think I did, but maybe I just saw you play Luke or something. Probably be back at the end of August, but dunno if it'll be Bham or London or what.

Your some kind of country slag J
