HI All

I want to build a competitive list for a tourney happening this weekend.
1850
This is what I am thinking of running.

SM

Iron Hands

HQ
Chapter Master
Burning Blade
Storm Shield
Artificer Armour

Troop
10 SM Rhino Missile Launcher
10 SM Rhino
10 SM

Elite
5 terms
3 SS 2 LC

Heavy
2 Storm Ravens
Hurricane Bolters
Assault Cannons
Multi Melta

IG

CCS
3x Plasma

Troops
Vet Squad
3x Plasma

Fast
2x Vendetta in a Squadron,

IG all start off the board in Vendettas

Terms plus Chapter master go in one Raven
10 SM go in another Raven.

What are you thoughts on this list?

The other list I add in a Land raider with the 4 flyers and terms go in it and I lose both rhinos and a troop choice.
Another variant is I drop the terms in favor of a 8 man honor guard in a drop pod

I know some one will be running a triple rip tide list at the tourney.

Thanks

You only have 20 tac marines and 2 rhinos to weather potentially 2 turns of shooting which means you could run the risk of being tabled before anything else shows up. Especially if you run into an alpha strike list. I would also swap burning blade and storm shield for pf and shield eternal. Otherwise the chap master may go bye bye against st8 or higher. Also means he can take mcs reliably.

I ran him with a relic blade and Shield eternal before it worked okay but walkers and mc are pain to wound with my dice rolling

Give special weapons to your Tac Squads. Also, TH/ SoE is great on a Chapter Master.

I would still get shield eternal! ×2 st th is reliable on mcs. But even a 3++ against smash attacks is risky without ew.

Sorry my mistake he does have shield eternal. I have now fixed the list.

That actually looks very good.
