Hi

transport 1 rhino hunter killer missile smoke launchers 68
Total Total 1848
Sorry its not very coherent as I've never done a list on dakka and my computer is playing up

If you're going to give your first squad of terminators tank hunter, you'd be better off going with 2 CML. Other than that your list looks solid. I love the fact that you took the holy orb, I love that weapon!

Thanks The Dark Saga
Also what would you reccomend gettin to up the points value (im already getting a LRC for Christmas)

It is probably even good though for me is still a long away from great though maybe that is a good thing

Assault termies need way to get into cc, i.e. a landraider.
Either double assault cannon or double CML would be more valuable to you, this concentrates the role of the squad, though double CML would make better use of tank hunter.
Having two assault troops and two shooty troops probably will not work so well, for example running two rhinos forward isn't much of a threat compared to trying to stop 4.
Shooting troops would be better as small units, like 5 power armour then extra cannon fodder, it is just a little expensive for one heavy weapon otherwise, foot slogging it is only the heavy after all, also the lascannon is good value for the squads.
Landspeeders work much better in pairs. Also I think the typhoons work slightly better, see the FAQ for their new rules?
One single pred. isn't so reliable. Give him a partner or buy a load of typhoons for the covering fire role.

My post is less coherent than yours
