That's 1850 on the nose. Belial is with the squad of 5 knights deep striking with both squads of Termies. Landspeeders are a distraction. ADL is protecting the scouts and possibly devastators with the scout Sargent manning the quadgun. Possibly sending the scouts out for backfield objectives. Should I go with 2 squads of 5 Termies instead of the 2 of 10? Should I drop the speeders or fighter? Would love to hear any thoughts/comments on this list I know it's a low model count but what deathwing list isn't.

Couple things:
Perfidious relics are useless.
Whether they be DWK or DWT the squad accompanying Belial should be 10 strong.
The Nephilim is...underwhelming. If you have the model and are determined to use it, fine, but it's not efficiently equipped or costed.

Not to nitpick, but your squad of 10 termies (unless you're throwing in a vet sgt or something for some reason) is 10 pts over cost. I got 505. 10 pts is the difference of a MM, so I would be careful with your numbers. Other than that, I would say it looks like a fun list. I agree with Shrike on a couple of points. 10 points (as I said above) for a Perf relic isn't terribly fantastic. You're facing less and less Psykers that target your units as the game progresses, and Eldar Warlocks just took a hit to their Psyker powers anyhow (if they would even target your unit to begin with) with the (IIRC) Ld 8. Of all of my games, I believe I've had a unit targeted by Psykers in one game against a SM gunline when he decided to play with my DE instead of outright gunning me down when I cornered myself trying to corner him. Anyhow, I'm starting to ramble. Just consider what you could do with 200 points if you cut the Nephilim, relic and redid the math on that term squad.

With a few edits I'm at 1849 now. And I've decided to run Belial with the 10 man terminator squad. Should I keep the dreadnought? Or drop him for another speeder and a termie or two or another devastator squad. Any and all help is appreciated

I would go with more devastators in place of the dreadnought given your lack of armor saturation. I normally don't advise taking just 5 devs to a squad; you need ablative wounds. See if you can get some by dropping the MM on the land speeders and relying solely on the TML. It'll keep you alive a little longer as you hover just inside 48" range and the extra devs will pick up the anti-armor duty. Other than that, it looks solid.

Drop the nephilem, pick up a libby and roll for gate, put with termies and keep deepstriking around the scouts so no scatter and enjoy twinlinked termie fire every turn lol

I would sign this contract but I already ate the potato
