After much meandering and pondering, I determined for next tax season, I will start some Imperial fists (I know its pretty far out, but I'm an indecisive person and I have to plan purchases out like this to afford the hobby). Actually, I will be making Crimson fists because 1) Pedro is a total baller and 2) straight yellow dudesman is an eye- sore. Anyway, Sternguard are a must, I know that much but with sentinels of terra, Centurion devastators can be taken as elites. My next question is whether or not the heavy support slot is so crowded for SM that having elite centurion Devs is advantageous at all? A broader question is whether or not Sentinels of Terra is a good purchase to begin with?

As far as lists go, I was loosely thinking something like this at 1850:

Pedro

Tactical w/ Plasma + Heavy Bolter
Scouts w/ snipers

Sternguard w/ 5 combi-meltas, Drop-pod
Centurion Devs
Venreble dreadnought

Storm Raven

Tanks of some kind?????--- I really need help finding something with synergy
