Elites
5x DW Knights w/LRC w/DW Vehicle, MM, Extra Armour, Dozer

Troops
5x DW Terminators w/AC & CF

5x DW Terminators w/CML
5x Ravenwing Attack Squad w/PA, Melta Bombs, MG, PG; Attack Bike w/MM

FA
3x Ravenwing Black Knights w/Melta Bombs & Ravenwing Grenade Launcher

This is what I have on hand for my DA army for a WYSIWYG and my immediate future plans is to have at least one of the Terminators squads to replace their AC and CF for a CML. What I'm planning on doing with what I have is to have the LRC, filled with the DW Knights joined by Azrael and Ezekiel, rush towards a key target followed closely by the Black Knights. I'll be trying to get the Attack Squad to get close to an objective if there is one so that the Terminators with the AC can DS onto the objective, otherwise the Attack Squad will support the other squads in trouble. The CML Terminator squad will stay back to camp objectives/support the ones up front.

I'm pretty sure this isn't the greatest list and most likely this isn't even a decent list since I really have no real way to deal with fliers and heavily armored vehicles. Any and all tips are most welcomed.

EDIT: Forgot to add in the other DW squad.

The problem I found with using heavy DW is the super low modelcount.
Any Termie you loose, and you will, will hurt you bad.

The LR will most likely pop first turn, since you have nothing else to direct the Anti Vehicle fire to direct to.

Anyone will want to get into close combat with the termies, since I1 and expensive special weapons that don't do anything will mostly always give him the edge.
Considering that, such a big investment into the Knights which are kind of a one trick pony is something I would reconsider in lists like this.

Knights in a landraider work fine. They are not uber competitive, but as a combination they work well together.

As above though, a single unsupported landraider does have much hope. Especially at 2k points. Consider another landraider, and/or a techmarine/librarian on a bike with a PFG to give them a 4++ save.

I don't like ezekiel, he doesn't unlock ravenwing command squads, or have a PFG. Also, his +1 WS isn't needed very much on knights, as they are hitting almost all other units on 3+ anyway.

You should do TH/SS instead of CF. Gives those termies a little more resilience. Though I agree they are def still not very durable. Though I do love termies though.

A good soldier obeys without question. A good officer commands without doubt.
