I can probably move the land raider to the heavy slot for
the additional scoring heavy unit in that one mission scenario
But other than that what do you guys think of this list?

Does the twin linker melta's from vulkan pass the the damned? i know traits don't but not sure on his rule

Nvm i just read the rule and it just states "melta's in this detachment so i guess so" that's a nice combi then.

Any opinion on how this list looks balanced/weakness etc.?

I like it overall. Your LotD aren't going to be able to take advantage of chapter tactics, but of course will benefit from Vulkan.

I think alot of Salamander termies will not take advantage of lightning claws or other melee weapons because of the previous iteration of Vulkan's power. However striking at initiative could help termies.

Why LCs on your tac squads? It's a good weapon at all, but doesn't pass the dakka test in my opinion. Why not MMs? Free twin linking snapshots is better than just snap shooting with a single die throw right? Is it just the range or strength or what?

Vulkan travels with the termies? Is that the only reason for the redeemer? Why not teleport them in and add two Thunderfire Cannons instead. Passes the Dakka test and gets the termies into combat too... They can babysit the home objectives in BGNT too.

strong anti-air. Not Tau level... but strong

Sorry forgot to mention my marines are combat squading to hold back field objectives and have a lascannon for the range

With interceptor on ap 2 guns now I don't trust teleportation plus the redeemer has two flamers and a multi melta so it's all benefitting from the salamanders

And you'd suggest lightning claws over thunder hammer storm shield??

Its not a bad thing to mix LC TH/SS termies. the TH/SS ones stand out front to soak wounds during shooting and once you are in combat your LC ones will thin out the enemy striking at initiative before they attack. I have used this to great effect this addition. Just make sure you have good model placement.
