I'm not sure what sort of criticism you want, exactly.

If you want an evaluation of your list from a competitive standpoint, it's a complete disaster. Your list resembles a random collection of models that do not support each other in any reasonable way. It also has wargear choices that make zero sense, for example, why give the Captain two Power Weapons? It literally accomplishes nothing, and makes me think you haven't mastered the rules.

Since you're going to be in a tournament, make sure you fully understand the rules. Otherwise, I think I need to know what other models you have available to make further suggestions, as drastic changes are required and there isn't enough time to paint much.

Well... you are kind of all over the place. How many games have you played? Are you a new player?

The reason I ask is that it's apparent you haven't play tested what works and what doesn't and I don't say that in a mean way.

The gunship is out of place here I think. I guess it's carrying the Reclusiarch and the Tac marines? If so I would drop the gunship and the Tacs altogether, which then gets rid of the Reclusiarch. The techmarine unfortunately is useless altogether not just in this list.

But I have to go with MrEconomics here and say there's really no rhyme or reason to the list.

Basically this. Assault Marines are far superior to tacs, you always need to run ravens in doubles so one will get somewhere, and you need at least 1 librarian if you go to a tourney...

Hmmm those Baals are a bit fudged up. See, with Baal flamestorms you will be going forward as fast as you can. This means 18" and popping smoke. Next turn you will move up and burn (probably move 12") and next turn you're dead. This is the nature of the flamestorm Baal. I would make these cost as less as possible if you're dead set on taking them. Personally I wouldn't take them in either form.

Stormraven, you need two of these for armour and target saturation. I would take the lascannon and multi melta as they are free and the multi melta will be handy as you're up close anyway.

Assault Squads, how many dudes in each unit? Seems like wrong wargear in these units. Should be dual flamers and power weapon/claw or dual meltaguns and power fist/hammer.

No point in the Techmarine. He cannot keep up with those fast vehicles and he's not a I.C to join units inside the Stormraven.

Reclusiarch is cool, Librarian is better as does the same trick but better.

Captain is just plain rubbish. I would really drop the Captian.

Hope that helps
