So my club is shutting down next saturday and we are holding a last day 750 point tournament for the last day.

I just picked up deathwatch and want to run them and get some practice and a feel of how they work.

what i own:

Watch captain with sword, not put a gun on his right hand yet.
Chaplain
Librarian
15 veterans (5 built, 1 shotgun, 3 bolters, 1 frag cannon
5 Vanguard (3 unbuilt,1 with SS, PS, 1 with heavy hammer)
Terminators (4 unbuilt, 1 with AC)
2 rhinos and 1 razor
corvus blackstar.

My only real worry is someone will probably bring a riptide and crisis bomb, and someone else a bloodthirster, considering how few models I have.

my list is:

Watch Captain
artificer armour, bolt pistol and power sword

Vet Squad 1
3 shotguns, 2 infernus heavy bolters
Rhino

Vet Squad 2
2 combi-meltas, 2 frag cannons
Rhino

Vet Squad 3
5 combi-plasma
razorback

any tips or advice for dealing with riptides and thirsters? or just to tweak the list
