So im writing up this mechish list just because i like the feel and theme.
now i know its not overly strong but i've ran something like this a few times and enjoyed it in both Competitive games as well as just friendly games.
now here is the list:
HQ:
-Dante :225p
Elites:
-1x Furioso librarian Dread :175p
Troops:
-5x Sang-Gaurd w/ 1 inf-p, P fist :220p
-5x Assault marines in Rhino w/ plasma-g, pw :145p
-5x Assault marines in Razorback w/ Assault cannon :155p
-5x Assault marines in Rhino w/ plasma-g, pw :145p
Fast attack:
-3x Attack bikes w/ 3 multi-melta's :150p
-Baal Predator w/ Assault cannon, H-bolters :145p
Heavy support:
-Predator w/ Side las, Auto cannon :135p
-Storm raven w/ Multi-melta, Assault cannon, :200p

I have 155 points left to spend. the idea is that the dread lib used wings n shield to give all the tanks cover saves move up behind them then jump on n rush into assault at the last chance.
meanwhile dante n his squad will focus on dropping the big guns hiding up the back with their Deep strike. and the MM Attack bikes will be their to tank hunt as well. the Baal is to make up for the lack
of anti infantry i've felt in the last few games.

So for 155 points left what do you think i should add?

When in doubt get Mephiston out!

Perhaps a biker priest to give attack bikes FNP and FNP for your troops when they get out of the tanks?

Nonbeing, that is to say, everything.

Correct me if I'm wrong - the assback RAS squad is naked? I would add a melta/plasma if I were you.
With the remaining 145 points I would get another Baal - they work well in pairs, and I have never regretted taking one (except against immortal spamming crons...) or two for that matter.
You could add a priest, but between turbo-boost saves and the cover you will undoubtably hide them behind (including other units), or at least blocking LoS from heavy hitting units, I think you will be fine on that account. Also, if you were to get a priest I would just hide it in a rhino/razorback and keep it close to bikes. Cheaper and wider effect range (from hull, not model).

Actually, ammending, the above, drop that extra special weapon or a PW and make those rhinos razorbacks - they're not doing much good now.

Sorry I can't be of much more help, I don't play mech.

Lascannons are valuable weapons. Far more valuable, in my estimation, than assault cannons.

Is it a TL LC? Or just a LC? You could go with las/plas, they're pretty good. Also you could do some modeling work and just take of one las and add a plas turret from bits.

Also if you have any landraiders, you can take their main gun (either an Asscannon or a HB) to make another razorback.
