Thoughts?

If your DPs aren't taking Lash, you might as well take MOK to get an extra attack as the DP is already I5 or 6.

You maybe have too many meltas, 6 Melta squads with 4 or 5 in each squad is a pretty large amount.
Maybe try and fit a few Plasmas in for slightly longer range fire if need be or rapid firing AP2 goodness.

Otherwise its a pretty good Rhino rush CSM list I would say. Main weakness is no long range fire power, Rhinos are going to be stopped before reaching the enemy lines, but good positioning should help you out in most situations. No out and out CC squads also could be a bit of a negative, especially since you need to be getting close to deliver the melta and flamer shots, but since they are all I4 3+ save Marines with 2 attacks base your not going to suck in combats completely.

I guess I could ditch the havoc launcher, melta bomb, and slaanesh marks to give my havoc squads plasma guns. Though I prefer meltas for better anti tank, no overheating, and instant death capabilities. Something to consider though...
