Ok this has been sat here for a day now, im 40 points short and id like some constructive feedback. can this list work in a take all comers tornament. the tornaments tomorrow!!

I'd drop the Heavy bolter and get a base cultist squad for back objective holding. That way you can use your better troops to give your other units some support mid-field.

You got transports.
You made champs naked, but I suggest meltabombs.

Cultist! Can never have enough from my experience. 10 of them is 50 points, cheap scoring unit to sit in cover or on an objective. Or failing that a rhino with dirge caster to stop them overwatching when you charge

I would be concerned by power armoured gun lines; the boring ones which hide behind an ADL. Just because they'll be able to take out the rhino transports quickly leaving only the serkers to hit home and they will threaten the heldrakes on arrival.

The current shooty CSM list I use has a couple of helbrutes so I wouldn't be too worried about the zerkers getting to me as they will be power fisted to death.

If you are playing objectives you only have two troop choices. Do you go and park your rhinos on them for the victory points or do you have to table your opponent?

I think the list will do a lot of damage to any army it plays. I don't think it is a take on all comers list because a shooty list will neutralise the bulk of your troops and you are not certain to table an opponent just with your airforce.

The list is very suited to the purge the alien mission, providing you keep your rhinos out of sight and your not facing a ADL gun or other nasty with skyfire or interceptor rules. It'll do well with the mission with two objectives and the relic (get it in the landraider and throw the troops at anything with melta).

Tornament went well, swapped my autocannon drake for another baleflamer drake (got cold feet) and included the 10 man cultist squad. by camping rhinos behind cover i was able to last until turn 2 where my drakes came in an killed people who used the ADL trick. regretted the swap as my first opponenet came out with many vendettas.
But from then on, it went ok, with the cultists being massacred game after game.
