I´m thinking on adding devastators, explorers or more vehicles.
So, I really need opinions and ideas for the last points to spend.

Get more than 20 scoring models. A place to start.

Also, get those tactical squads combi-weapons on the sarges and some TL lascannon razorbacks!

First, welcome to Dakka.

As a rule, don't list the individual point costs of upgrades, just a total for the unit. Full rules for this section are in a sticky at the top of the page.

I'm not a big fan of the epistolary upgrade. 50 points is a lot. I also prefer chaplains to lead my assault squads, but librarians can work as well.

If you have the points, a HF on the ironclad would be nice, possibly some of his other upgrades as well.

I like full tac squads in rhinos. I'd rather not spend points on heavy weapons that are on the move though, so I'd stick with a MM/ML/HB here. My two stock tac squads are MM/M and ML/F in rhinos. Combi weapons matching the squad are nice if you have the spare points.

You could use another troop pick. 5 scouts with cloaks and a HB/ML make for a good objective camper.

Some more AA might help. ADLs with quads are nice, or a second talon.

If you are going to get a storm shield on the libby, get the vortex of doom. Assault terminators can withstand it, and so can the librarian. And another str 10 AP2 weapon is really helpful.

For your list I would recommend some bikes. They will bolster your drop podding dreadnoughts and provide some anti-tank or horde fire with the upgrades. Some scouts with teleport homers will also get the terminators into battle immediately.
The Land raider imo is too expensive and you can get other units like bikes, and some upgrades like combi weapons and some plasma. Or like nevelon said, a quad gun. Bikes are fast, which is fitting for your army so you might seriously think about them. You also need something to get the fire away from the dreadnought. They terminators should soak up enough fire for the rest of the army to get into battle. But if you really want that land raider then go ahead. They work just fine.

Thanks for your help Ork Marine, I´ve tested your idea and the vortex worked prettty well, sadly, I still need the LR, as my Termis die very quickly, but they are worth the points.
And surprisingly, the Vindicator is m most efficient model in the whole army, which surprised me due to it´s short range.

That's because a lot of people cheap out on ranged anti-tank. Eldar will smoke it pretty easy with bright lances now, though.

You have almost no infantry at this point level. You're almost asKing to be tabled...

So far I have faced Necrons, Dak Angles, Tau, Dark Eldar, Blood Angels and Elda, and only lost against the dark eldar.
