I've been messing around with lists for my planned HH legion and need to bounce my list off a few different perspectives. This is what I have come up with so far;
HQ
Praetor
+volkite charger
+paragon blade
+iron halo
+jump pack
+digital lasers
195
Command squad
+1 extra veteran
+power fist
+2 power weapons
+lightning claw
+jump packs
230
Elites
2 Apothecaries
+augury scanners
100
Troops
Tactical squad
+additional CC weapons
+vexilla
Tactical squad
+additional CC weapons
+vexilla
Assault squad
+2 power weapons
+lightning claw or power fist
+artificer armour
295
Assault squad
+2 power weapons
+lightning claw or power fist
+artificer armour
295
Heavy support
heavy support squad
+missile launchers
+flak missiles
210
heavy support squad
+autocannons
+augury scanner
165
1850
The apothecaries join the tactical squads and hold home objectives, the command squad + praetor move up with the assault squads to kill stuff and capture other objectives and the heavy support squads provide fire support.
Any thoughts?

“Because we couldn’t be trusted. The Emperor needed a weapon that would never obey its own desires before those of the Imperium. He needed a weapon that would never bite the hand that feeds. The World Eaters were not that weapon. We’ve all drawn blades purely for the sake of shedding blood, and we’ve all felt the exultation of winning a war that never even needed to happen. We are not the tame, reliable pets that the Emperor wanted. The Wolves obey, when we would not. The Wolves can be trusted, when we never could. They have a discipline we lack, because their passions are not aflame with the Butcher’s Nails buzzing in the back of their skulls.
The Wolves will always come to heel when called. In that regard, it is a mystery why they name themselves wolves. They are tame, collared by the Emperor, obeying his every whim. But a wolf doesn’t behave that way. Only a dog does.
That is why we are the Eaters of Worlds, and the War Hounds no longer."

About the only problem is that you have little Anti Tank beyond the missiles and given how much armour can be taken you might find your self in trouble.

By the 1000 whispers of Slaanesh we call to them,
By the 12 plagues of Nurgle we fell their enemies,
And by the mighty axe of Khorne we cut open the world for them!

I see your point. Do you think it would be worth swapping the autocannons on the second heavy support squad for missile launchers?

Might be an idea but S8 on a Land Raider isn't all that good. Remember your assault squads can all be kitted out with Melta bombs so you have options there also.

Yeah I guess AV14 could be a bit of a problem. If I take the augury scanners away from my apothecaries and the second heavy support squad I can give melta bombs to my Praetor and my assault squads.
