Well there is an upcoming 2v2 tournament coming up around Valentines day and its 1k per player. I'm playing I.G. and my partner is playing Chaos. Hes bringing the backbone of the army and I'm mostly bringing the big stuff so here is my list let me know if you have any suggestions. (Force organization is being shared)

2x Leman Russ w/ front mounted Lascannon
Vendetta
Punisher w/ front mounted Lascannon
Marbo
Veterans w/ 3x melta and Carapace doctrine

1. Wheres this event at?
2. Do you each need to satisfy a FOC (2 troop 1HQ min) or is that between the entire composition of both armies?
3. Marbo? Not worth the points. I can't even count the number of times I've killed him with a close-combat scout squad.
4. Consider the following units instead:
Manticore!
It can kill AV14 outright getting the nasties on foot right away. Along with any of the AV13 pie-plate droppers.
If your hitting hordes...who cares. Regardless of scatter stuff will die.
Add a hull heavy flamer so after your 4 shots you can run up and torch light armor right off an objective.
Leman Russ Executioner.
5 plasma templates per shot will kill any MEQ unit out their. Against hordes; again who cares about scatter...stuff dies. S7 is also good against AV11 transports.

Like i said up top. The force organization is shared among the players. And for objectives Marbo is almost unfair. Shows up drops a str 8 ap 2 pie at BS 5. Thats nasty but yes he is easily kill-able but hes gotten his points back every time. And the executioner is only heavy 3 when i can have the punisher at heavy 20 with commander pask so i hit on 3s and wound on 3s. So on average you put from 8 to 12 wounds on a squad. So a squad of 5 terminators taking 10 armor saves? ones gonna go

Hmmm, I would test play your bulid a little more. I know for a fact that double dark eldar could be a problem for ya'lls.
