Tactica : So the idea is to make use of the dirge caster to nulligy the threat of overwatch. However, this means I must place my Metal Bawskes in a specific way : they most cover my main infantry from attacks and the enemy LoS, but without hindering their 2d6 movement at the beginning.

What do you think about it ?

I think you get very little out of the vindicators and preds considering your chapter tactics only affect non-vehicle models (and walkers). Not only that, your trying to rush your footsloggers and 'Raider termies into CC and that generally doesn't go well with dropping str10 ap2 pie plates all around the place.

What you really want is something to overload the enemies shooting capacity so they have to accept that they are going to let something get through unmolested even if they go first. Give them a bunch of bad choices you know?

Your juggerlord escort of 3 bikes is not large enough and will fall to shooting or overwatch, leaving him by himself. Boost it to 5 or stick him with 3 spawn for less points and more wounds. You also gave him AoBF AND Melta Bombs for some reason. The guy is S7 on the charge, he doesn't need Melta Bombs.

I hope you aren't thinking of sticking those CSM in those Rhinos. The boxes aren't going to keep up with your units, so the Dirge Casters are useless. The Melta Bomb on the champ is also pretty useless as your big baddies are going to take on their big baddies most of the time. Objective Secured empty rhinos sitting on Objectives is the way to use Rhinos in World Eaters, never start in them because they only slow you down.

You took a Land Raider by accident. IDK why battlescribe occasionally does this with some people's lists but it sticks a LR in there randomly. Go ahead and remove it. For less points you can stick a Termie Lord with Talisman with the Terminators and have them move 9 inches and charge +3 inches, making turn one charges possible with them after a decent 2D6 free move.

Do you want to play Iron Warriors? They take the pew pew and the bawkses and like it. World Eaters don't like bawkses, they want to run at the enemy full bar. The fluff fits the rules: masses of soldiers dying by fire and overwatch and still coming on. You will get shot to hell, you just need to accept that and drop the defensive bawkses for more Lords / bodies.
