The termies and sternguard are such huge point sinks for this point limit...My suggestion is to bump off the termies, make the predator triple lascannon or AC with LC sponsons, bump the sternguard to 10-man and buy them a drop pod. I don't know how this would change points as my codex and other materials are not nearby...but at least that is my vote. Otherwise I would say you are pretty light on troops.

Looks to be a solid start for 1000 pts.

good luck painting all of these. I can only paint 1 box of stuff at a time, else it gets daunting

Remember, magnatise EVERYTHING At higher point levels, being flexible is needed
