After being a little lost on a quest to find an army that suits me, I've more or less settled on Mech Vanilla Marines. Here's what I've got; open to any/all feedback.

No scouts? And two troops. Yes you've got a lot of fire power but if your OBJ holding all he has too do is kill some MEQs and he's won or drawn unless you table him.

Granted. But additional Troops aren't necessary. I only need to hold one objective, and contest the rest; the Sternguard, their Rhinos, and the Land Speeders - heck, even the Predators, if need be - can do that, whilst the squads sit back in their Razorbacks on top of home objectives.

Where does the librarian go? There doesn't seem to be any room for him in a ride assuming those stern are 10 deep.

The stern are not 10 deep, they are waaaaaaaay too cheap to be 10 deep.

I would consider dropping a speeder and finding some more points to put on lascannon sponsons on at least 2 preds. That will give you superb transport killing ability.

OR simply change the razors from Las/Plas to TLLC. No points to change. You are already excellent at killing infantry with all that stern. Although the Las/Plas benefits from greater survivability, if you were looking to add more reliable anti-light-med AV, this would be the easiest way to do it.
