Let me know what you guys think

So your plan is to go with 15 scoring Marines with 10 of them going straigth at the enemy's face?
Get more marines. 2x10 ASM in Drop Pods, the Scouts and fourth scoring unit might be good enough.

You can get the points by dropping the third Vindicator or Fragioso.

And remember that Corbulo works well with Drop Pod lists to keep your marines alive for the turn of enemy shooting.

Corbulo is the man. And I didn't think you could take Blood Talons with a frag cannon? Or am I misreading your post?

The assault marines won't be going near combat the idea is drop 3 dreads first turn. The scoring units drop on objectives, while tanks and dreads have a go at everything else

Blood claw one arm and frag cannon on the other

Blood claw is the power fist. Other than maybe giving the assault marines more melta, this looks like a decent AV 13 wall. It relies greatly upon the meta not dealing with AV 13 well, which is not an entirely crazy idea. This is one of the better concepts BA still have left.

And, yes, Corbulo is the man.

That was my thoughts around this list lots of difficult armour to kill. Im testing this list on Tuesday against my mates seer bike council of doom just hoping he fails some saves

Unfortunately, seer councils are something that BA really don't have answers to. Fragnoughts are great, but not against meched up Eldar.
