Hello everyone. Can you guys tell me what you think about this list at the 1500 points level.

Typhon Heavy Siege Tank [Armoured Ceramite, Dirge Casters, Lascannon Sponsons, Pintle Multi-Melta, Warpflame Gargoyles]

The Rhino's will hopefully be very low on priority so it's a good way to shift ten plague marines where they need to be; causing nuisance.
No one will expect three laspreds, could even have had four if I dropped some marines but I don't want that many of the model as it doesn't fit in regular lists.
Typhon will die fast without invisibility, but it's still under 450 with all those upgrades.
The warpflame gargoyles synergize well for only five points with super-heavies that can target different units.

Here's the list with four Laspreds instead of three, in this one the sorceror is hiding in one of the Rhino's rather than being exposed.

That many las preds really isn't needed. 2 max. I don't know chemical flames rules, but consider dropping some for plasma/melta. And for the first list, dirge caster is a waste of points on the typhon.

Why do I only need two max las preds?
Chemical Flamers have shred and gets hot, I want to keep it like this.
Dirge caster for only five points lets my plague marines assault any killy units near the Typhon that could threaten it, holding them up. The Typhon will be very aggressive making use of the bonus to thunderblitz, so the extra las preds will make up for the Typhon range being reduce to 24 for moving.

Las preds rally aren't that good. You're paying 125 points for 2 lascannon shots per turn. If you want that you could just take havocs instead. Shred in place for gets hot isn't that good imo, but whatever floats your boat. The chances of someone getting up close to your typhon is pretty slim unless it's a suicide melta bomb squad because they're gonna get blitzed on their turn. And even then, with only 2 rhinos if you have both of them
Playing guardian for your typhon you're giving up a lot of board control and you'll lose objectives because your army is practically 3 vehicles.

Thanks for your feedback. Definitely wont be pursuing this idea any further.
