Whattup fellow Imperial Fist brother!

Lysander is an awesome HQ, but in order for him to be super-awesome, you should be taking advantage of all his abilities. Including Bolter Drill. Which, btw, is really good with Sternguard Vets, if you can configure them into your list.

I love TH/SS Termies in Land Raider Crusaders, but the squad is SUPER expensive in anything under 1750. You could put Lysander w/ Sternguard in a Pod for far less points, and free up options for the rest of the army. At least 100+ points.

I would consider combi-weapons for your Tac Squads, if you can model them. They're solid upgrades and focus the group a little more on what they're good at killing.

Hunter-Killer missiles are a nice way to spend 10 extra points if you have them lying around, but usually the points can be better spent elsewhere on other upgrades.

Scouts are a cool way to take advantage of Bolster Defenses, but make sure you give them Cloaks so they can steal a 2++ save from a regular piece of cover.

The Land Speeder really needs some upgrades to be worthwhile. I don't think you're gonna need a Storm to transport the Scouts around (they're better off Cloaked in Bolstered terrain, IMO ...especially since they all have heavy weapons). I'd turn it into a Land Speeder w/ MM & HF to cause some early disruption and be able to target whatever weakness you wanna exploit.

Or you can decide to Pod your army for early disruption and use Darnath w/ Sternguard supported by Podded Dreads (another tactic I like)

Here's a Pod list that's fun and pretty solid that takes full advantage all Lysander has to offer:

Darnath Lysander 200

Sternguard Veterans x5 (Combi-Meltas) in Drop Pod (185)
Ironclad Dreadnaught w/ HF in Drop Pod (180)
Dreadnaught w/ MM & HF in Drop Pod (150)

Tactical Squad (Flamer, Combi-Flamer, ML in Rhino) 215
Tactical Squad (Melta, Combi-Melta, MM in Rhino) 220
Scout Squad x5 (Snipers, ML, Cloaks) 100

=1250 exact.

Hope that helps man, cheers.
