Comander Dante 225
libby 125 (shield lance) 125

2x Honor Guard 3 meltas 195

2x 10 man assault squads 235
2 melta

1 priest 75

vv squad pw,2pf 215

Trying to be competitive.

Well, looks quite good.
However, you don't need Dante.
I'd take a 2nd Libby and trim the Vanguard Vets (just one 1 pf).
This gives you 100+40 pts to add 2 Speeders w/ hf, mm.

Dante works best when taking SG as troops. You can field an entire assault squad w/ 2 meltas and a PW for dante's points.

good point pdawg i just thought the precision strike with a honor guard would be nice

Do you guys think the vv squad will be effective

The Vanguard squad is fine, although shaving a bit of the wargear off wouldn't be the worst idea.

The biggest issue is lack of Troops, which others have mentioned. You don't need 2 HQs at 1500, and you could take another Assault Squad and another VV squad if you cut Dante and his Honor Guard.

You should probably swap Blood Lance for Unleash Rage as well. Re-rolling misses with a 10 man Assault Squad is nasty.

Should i run the speeders together are seperate.

You should never squadron unless you have to. If you squadron, both Speeders have to shoot at the same target. Being able to treat Stunned as Shaken is not worth it, plus Immobilized becomes Wrecked.

In my opinion, you shouldn't take Speeders at all, if they're the only vehicles you have. It's bad in general to have only a few vehicles. I will admit that this isn't as bad as normal, as HF/MM Speeders aren't going to live long no matter what.

So what you guys think. An thank you for being helpful so far.

1500 points on the dot

Pretty good. My one tweak would be dropping the Power Weapon in the Honor Guard to take a fourth Meltagun. You can use the extra points to trade the Meltabombs and Power Weapon in the last Assault Squad for a Fist.

I think i will try that sounds good. Thanks alot.
