The sanguinary priests in the spearhead detachments are to keep the devs alive and acts as a cheap hq to fill the detachment.
The battalion detachment is just going to act as one advancing blob
The predators are for supporting fire.
The terminators are to deepstike in. I may replace one squad with some death company.
I am considering a rejig to get a techmarine in there and replace the sanguinary priest with 5 devs for disposable bodies

Any thoughts or changes?
