5 man scout squad w/ 4 snipers and a missile launcher, whole squad has camo cloaks : 100

Elites;
5 Man sterngaurd squad w/ 5 combi meltas : 195
(Sterngaurd are taking a razorback w/ TL heavy bolters)

Fast attack;

2x Stormtalon w/ TL lascannons. : 290

You probably need more troop choices in your list, for holding objectives,

I'm not that clued on Space Marines, but it would probably be better if you could fit another Tactical squad in there?

Please tell me how that Tac squad is 170 points? I seem to remember that Tac squad of 10 are minimum of 180 points, looking at my dex that would cost you 180 points. Sorry :(

Whirlwind: Could do better with a pred with upgrades like AC/HB

Repent! For tomorrow you die!

I thought that Tactical squads cost 90 for the sergeant and 4 marines, and an extra 16 points for the other 5

16 x 5 = 80
plus the 90 = 170

I don't have my codex with me so I don't know

Tac squads like that are 170.

I'm not so sure about sicarius in there. Costs a bit, and I can't really see who you'd be running him with, sternguard? I'd probably just drop him and take a librarian to go with the sternguard.

For heavy support I think you could definitely go with something better than that devastator squad. From the look of its points, its just five models right? With the plasma cannons and lascannons mixed together, it wont often be that successful. Either shooting at a tank which the PC isn't fabulous at or infantry which the lascannon isn't fabulous at. I dont know what you have handy, but an easy switch would be to take a sternguard vet squad instead of the devastators. Then with 2 lascannons they're only 155pts.

With sicarius and the devs gone, 155pts spare. Then for your troops;
10 man Tactical Squad w/ flamer & heavy bolter in rhino : 205
10 man Tactical Squad w/ flamer & heavy bolter in TL-HB razor: 205

Total-1235

I prefer HB over ML, you've got some lascannons and melta for tanks and the ML wont contribute much. At least the HB is good at doing what its meant to do - infantry and not do infantry and vehicles by halves. The razor for the other squad is so you can combat squad it and leave the HB at the home objective, I'd presumed that's what the scouts were doing so these were to take over.
Atm I just dont like the look of foot slogging marines and a lone razorback with some whirlwind that will be way back in the wops.

If your attack is going too well, you have walked into an ambush

The easy way is always mined
