The Librarians goes with the Devastators behind the aegis casting prescience to give them rerolls on the PC. One dreadnought hangs around to tarpit cc who comes at them, the other flies in with the stormraven.

Any thoughts?

Getting the dreads into combat will be a pain without pods

I was kind of thinking the enemy would come to me, and the dreads would charge and defend the devastators?

Havent really used dreads much, so this is only how it played out in my mind. I have a drop pod though, so I could put one in.

I don't think that's likely-I would take one look at two dreads and just shoot them to pieces before trying to take the Devs in CC, rely on 'Gets Hot' and some well placed shots to wittle down the amount of plas coming my way until I was able to kill the dreadies.

Deploying with the Storm Raven (as you have presumably added to your original post later) will help, but I think you should consider drop podding in the other dread if you want both-unless you're giving your dread lascannon(s), he's 110 points that isn't doing anything until someone finally decides it's necessary to charge the devs.

Also, are you set on Ultramarines? This list would be quite good as an Iron Hands list-all mech would have IWND.

eh
libby can use Prescience?
