Obviously this is mostly very similar to predecessor Razor Spam lists. I just like the speed of the entire armor column as well as the counter attack possibility with the Terminator Unit in the Stormraven.
I think the stormraven will be staying in reserve most games, as I usually prefer to go second.
Anyone with some tips or criticism?

I'd add a Furioso Dread to the Stormraven.
Otherwise, its capacity will be wasted.

Without a Dread being transported I don't really see the value in the Storm Raven over just taking a Land Raider?
Otherwise looks pretty solid.
Is my humour = to my age or shoe size given that I always laugh when I see the abbreviaton AssCan...

List looks ok but the Terminators are odd with a single Raven also. I would take Ravens in pairs, or better just drop them and get another Predator and get another Baal too. Be more firece then

I really question the whole Assult Squads with jump packs removed to get cheaper transport line of thinking that has popped up recently. It seems silly to take a unit that has amazing mobility and suvivability and tie them to a peice of armor, or make them run across the board.

If youre gonna spam armor then the only sensible way is to do it with assault squads, as they can get transports cheapest. As a plus you can get them a melta and infernus for 25pts, the infernus isnt quite equal to a meltagun but it's almost there, and getting 5 marines with double melta and an armor 11/11/10 box with TL heavy flamer for 145ts is a bargain IMO.
