Hey guys im abit new to space marines usually usto playing with gakky little toughness 3 eldar and just wanted some advice about this list i made

Its designed to be a list that gets into combat quick and do the job of kicking ass. imo its more suitable for a shooting army such as imperial guard.
here it goes

HQ

Mordrak 200pts
5 ghost knights with 4 halberds and 1 daemon hammer 200pts


Elites

Vindicare Assassin 145pts

Troops

5 terminators 4 halberds, 1 daemon hammer and 1 Psycannnon 235 pts

5 terminators 4 halberds, 1 daemon hammer and 1 Psycannnon 235pts

Fast attack

2 storm ravens each with twin linked lascannon, twinlinked multimelta and extra armour 220pts each


Heavy support

Dreadnought with twin linked lascannon, heavy flamer, psyflame ammo, and 1 doomfist 155pts


Dreadnought with Assault Cannon, heavy flamer, psybolt ammo, and 1 doomfist 140pts

total of 1750pts


This army is not designed to go against horde armies as i only have a total of 20 models therefore wouldnt work out well, shall make a different list for that, so please dont go on about this being gak against hordes.

the plan is to get mordrak to deepstrike in first turn either beside a big shinny tank/unit to shoot down and kill, or to sit in cover near the enemy,
the Vindicare will infiltrate in and deploy him in a building therefore get 3 + cover save and just shoot down some annnoying models and maybe a tank or 3 lol

the stormraven will come in 2nd turn with the advantage of psychic communication so il make it be a 3+, they will most likely have 1 on the left flank and 1 on the right flank, they can shoot down
tanks or heavy units and then get the terminators to get into combat 3rd turn

the dreadnoughts will be in the storm ravens and shall most likely disembark 2nd turn and either blast away at enemies or else get into combat with monsterous creature or unit of troops and kill them
i.e destroy the unit sitting on the objkective and then claim the objective by making the dreadnoughts become troops by using the grand strategy rule to make the dreadnoughts troops.

so what do you think does it look like a solid list?

not 100% wether the dreadnoughts/stormravens have the right weapons as never used them before but looks like it would be affective against tanks and wont do bad against units either please let me know if they should have better weapons

Very glasscannony, be very careful with +S8 shots people have. Not sure how it will handle against too many numbers

Looks okayish but on the weapons I would swap lascannons for assault cannons and on the dread, get him psybolts

You should try get get a librarian w/ a teleporte homer and attach him to Mordak's unit to prevent scatter.

But Mordak doesnt scatter

unless its the termies we're talking about but they're using the stormraven anyways (I assume)
