What powers do the librarian have?

You haven't made the mistake of putting a Flamer and a Missile launcher in the same squad, so props to you

What armies are you most likely to face?

Wow, exactly 1000 points xD

I would swap the Preds for a Vindicator or a Dev Squad, as I find predators a bit lacking in combat, this is from experience.
I find that a vindicator with a Hunter-Killer Missile, a Siege Shield, and/or a storm bolter make an excellent combo.

If your family is mad at you, Ogres are the way to go. No one could be mad at Ogres. But if you come out and they demand to know what you're wasting your time on and you hold up a rat, you're not going to make any friends.

If your army is going to be rolling forward, do you really need the additional weapons on the Predator? If a tank moves 6" they can only fire one weapon, which means, your most likely to make your Heavy Bolters redundant.

I dont think you can take a Missile Launcher AND Heavy Bolter in one squad.
You cant take a special weapon in a 5 man tactical squad. The codex states, If the squad numbers 10 models. Sadly, it does not.

Hope this helps

@Space Marine Collector: I haven't decided what powers the librarian is going to use yet, though I'm thinking that I will sit him in the 5 man tactical squad. As to what armies, everything but I think probably quite a few marine, dark eldar and ork armies which I guess would mean I would benefit from a vindicator quite a bit.

@Zambro: I was thinking that i would sit my predators back near my tactical squad without a transport as they would be guarding my home objective in games that have one so that why I went for the sponsoons. ANd you're right about the Heavy BOlter Missile Launcher thing so I'll drop the heavy bolter.
