It looks fine to me , just drop those power fists , there not on sergants so only have 2 attacks on the charge drop them and get power swords there cheap and you get a decient amount of attacks. With those points you save maybe try to get your dread a Missilke laucher. If you can, dont have codex on me. Just my input.

I would not agree that that game is geared toward long range shooting and you beat your opponent from there. GW is obviously working toward something different.

Grey Knight codex MAJORITY of their shooting is 24''
Necron codex MAJORITY of their shooting is 24''-36''
I start to see a pattern of shorter ranged weapons. Use that to your advantage as a BT player.

With the most recent changes to the BT codex, yes you can get a LOT of good shooting at 48'' range for a decent cost. So just use that as anther advantage to your CC list you want to build.

85 - Typhoon
85 - Typhoon
85 - Typhoon
125 - Predator Destructor (Maybe add POTMS, but then I would go with Annilators to have 3 lascannons)
125 - Predator Destructor

505 Total - lots of shooting.

x6 8str missiles
x3 multi meltas
x2 auto cannons
x4 lascannons

Don't waste your time on terminators with cyclone missile launchers. If you are going to use BT terminators, take Accept Any Challenge No Matter the Odds and throw 5-6(3 LC and 2 TH/SS) of them in a LRC with Blessed Hull. Re-roll to hit, re-roll to wound on the LC 's and Str 5 wipes almost anything off the table in CC. Have done it more times than I could count.

Where are your Typhoons?
I like the 5 termies with 2CMLs or 2ACs :( Though I know the preds are more shooty and the assault termies in a raider are great if you can them across the table.

5 troops is excessive and you are missing out on some awesome units.

For BT happiness is a warm gun or in fact several large, long range guns as has been mentioned above without misquoting Beatles playing around with timings. You have too many cheap and effective shooting units. Ignore the cc rules as that way is just the fluff, take for example being fearless in cc seems like you love cc but the rules now mean fearless, especially only in cc, will get you killed.

Reason for 5 troops is I need alot for objective based games
