My thoughts on this were:

As we're moving towards multiple objectives, I wanted something cheap to hold in the back, something that can move quickly and contest and still maintain firepower. That means the crusaders stay back (very likely reserved) and rely on their invulnerability save to hold an objective, supported by the dreads. The strikesquad is for lategame contesting and the termies go forward. A few thoughts on the list right now:

Initially I really wanted a Xenos Inquisitor with a conversion beamer, purely for price. I had to switch him out for Coteaz though, to make the henchmen scoring. My only regret right now is that the Interceptors aren't kitted out better, since they might be a pretty key piece in this setup. Apart from that, I'm also considering getting warrior acolytes instead of the crusaders and purchasing fortifications for them. I'd basically place a building with them on an objective.

Feedback on it?

Seems like a decent list. Guess you are relying on those psibolt dreads for most of your Anti-vehicle?


Suggestions/Comments:

Go with just one squad of termies with cortez and your librarian attached.
The second one i'd remove and instead i'd spend on a couple small squads of deathcult assassins in a razorbacks. Gives you some more mobility, a little more long-ranged AT (maybe lascannons? though the heavy bolter +psybolts is still decent on the 'back), and a few (scoring) scary assault units.


You cannot place objectives on buildings or fortifications; so while they are nice you cannot count on them as being an objective in the missions which call for such.

Yeah, dreads would basically be anti vehicle and aircraft.

DCAs might be a really good idea. I'm also thinking beefing up the strikesquad if it's supposed to work as a late turn hammer.
