My usual enemies are MEQ or necrons so there's quite a bit of tailoring. I'm not sure if hordes will be a massive problem since I'll be relying on my LRBTs to be on hordes and secondary tank hunting.

All criticism is welcome!

Consider cutting the Vox, IS LCs, and Commisar.

The blobing and Commisar will not win any fights, just delay losing. While locked in combat, you cant shoot at your opponents with your LRBTs.

The LRBT are super good vs Necron and MEQ standard troops choices.

Your melta and plasma vets can probably take care of the 2+ problem choices.

Marbo might be fun. Harker also. Assuming you are plaing on 4x4 or greater, Vendettas are super. If the play area is smaller, try Scout Sentinels with HFs.

What would you recommend replacing the LCs with? I suppose I have plenty of anti-tank with the melta-vets and 2 LRBTs. Autocannons? They seem to be flavor of the month right now.
Sadly Vendettas aren't a choice, I don't have the models or the money to purchase them...yet.

I'd love to try Marbo, he seems like a laugh and an excellent distraction.

I'm not a big fan of IG IS Blobs in 6th

Maybe drop the Platoon for a third Vet squad (try Harker if you don't have a 3rd Chimera)

Marbo is fun. Zero scatter, Demo charge, Sniper pistol, Poisoned knife, great statline...

I like LasCannons in general, just not on IG ISs. Maybe Add a LasC and a MoS to your CCS

Maybe something like...

HQ: Company Command Squad + Sniper Rifle x4

Troops: Veteran Squad + Meltagun x3 + Demolitions
Gunnery Sergeant Harker

Heavy Support: Leman Russ

Heavy Support: Leman Russ

Troops: Veteran Squad + Meltagun x3 + Autocannon
Chimera (HB/HF)

Troops: Veteran Squad + Meltagun x3 + Autocannon
Chimera (HB/HF)

Elite: Guardsman Marbo

Aegis Defense Line ( fairly easy to scratch build)

Seems solid. Although I do always like to run plasma due to the MEQs. I'll switch things up based on your advice and what models I have available. Thanks.

After battle report:
It did well. I'm glad I took the plasma over more melta since I came against a DotA build. The only tank was destroyed in turn 1. The plasma did thier job and shot Mephiston to bits in overwatch (lol).

I misused Marbo on my 1st try. He made his points back by blowing up 4 terminators but my battle cannon scattered into him and vaporised him.
