Where are your HQs going? The drop pods don’t have space.

Overall, I like the structure of your list. But you have spent way to much on upgrades. I know you say it’s WYSWYG, but is everything?

ToT is a specialist weapon, so you don’t get the extra attack from the pistol. So you might as well save points and pick up a combi plasma instead. Both grav and plas pistols are massively overpriced. Even on characters, but doubly so on 1W models.

I’d rather see more bodies in the sternguard squad then a few tricked out ones. Not a fan of taking away the special ammo for normal metla guns. How are they getting into melta range? Do you need both the fist and the bomb?

I love the FA section, no issues here.

Scouts are fine.

You are investing a lot on 1 wound models. I’d run with combi plasma rather then grav pistols. More synergy in the squad. I’d spring for the HBs if you are keeping them at 10 man squads. Bolter drill will help when you have to snap fire, and if you stand still you get a nice chunk of dakka. If you aren’t taking the heavy, consider dropping a man from a squad to put the CM in a pod.

As a general drop pod rule of thumb, you get to choose your target, so specialize. Gear one pod for tanks, one for hordes, one for TEQ. Land the right pod next to the proper target.

MLs are generically useful. Not the best, but they work.

ADLs are cover and AA, hard to go wrong.

Good shout on the combi weapons ill swap them over and see how they go. The HQ go with the stern, they actually also have a pod I missed it whilst typing so ill add that in. The CM is literally priced as hes equipped, no idea what the previous owner used to put him together but it's damn near impossible to get his arms to budge
