Well, looks pretty solid. Only the assault cannons for the Razorbacks are questionable.

Sadly, I'm bringing them for anti-air. Ideas for 70 point replacements? Or 90pts if I change razorbacks to rhinos?

Ironclads are so much better if you can squeeze the points. Being immune to S6 fire (and krak grenades) is huge.

Your Land Speeders seem a bit confused. Generally, I would recommend taking 2 Multi Meltas or 2 Heavy Flamers, not one of each. Otherwise, you have half of the speeder wanting to pop a tank whilst the other half wants to burn some hordes.

Plus Deep Striking in and laying 2-4 flamer templates over enemy infantry is incredibly fun.

The flamer MM combo on the speeders is for versatility. I do see your point and it makes sense. The kit only comes w one MM though. My flamer is underslung and magnetized. So depending on how nice my opponent is, I could do a count as until I get some. Equal point costs too I think. I'll give that a try.
