BA Libby with Stern in pod, drops in cover and shoots as much as possible.
Other Sterns drop next turn (hopefully).
SM Libby & Assault Termies Deep Strike in middle of it, alt. Gate to the front on turn 1.

Assault Marines jump forward.
Tacticals drive up with Rhinos, covering the Vindicators as they advance. Takes objectives
as it fits and Vindi tries to cause max damage.

Pretty straight forward and with 4 scoring units, solid shooty and some hammernators, what you think?

Looking forward to some C&C

Vanilla Marine Librarians can't use Divination.

This is missing anti-flyer but otherwise solid enough.

Those PF sergeants are going to get punk challenged a lot.

yeah, like already mentioned. no divination.

drop fists, your serg's will get raped by challanges. take PW&MBs if you are worried about dreads.

drop the shields, drop a vindi... i think you have way over priced them. take a ADL w quad gun in its place. or a las pred. the vindis will have a hard time getting in range.

dont mix the combi weapons on the sternguard. have a anti-armour and anti-infantry squad. same with the tac/assualt squads. take flamers, or take meltas, dont take both. simplify their roles.

your trying to assault with a libby. id take a captain or GM instead.

assualt termies ive seen fair well with a 3:2 TH to LC ratio.

What part is BA and what part is SM?

@insernamehere he specifies with each unit. Basically captain + termis + Tac. are SM, else is BA.

I dont really understand the need for allied-in-SM. You can do everything with BA, and you dont need the Captain to do it. Yes, rhinos are more expensive as are TH/SS but rhinos are also faster. TH/SS just pisses me off.
The captain is really unnecessary, with the points you get from dropping him and having all BA would let you get a priest at least...

Did not see that.

I dont see anything here that cant be done better by going pure BA :/

If your going to use SM utilize some of their strengths:
- 12 cap droppod
- Thunderfury cannon
- Lysander

Or use the BA strengths on the current list:
- Priests
