I'm a bit worried that after the DC drop I won't have too much dedicated anti-MEQ, and that I might be missing some anti-tank. I was thinking of changing the AC's on the ravens to twin-plasmas for the extra hitting power?

Criticism welcome!

Solid looking overall. I'd say drop the las on the TACs if they're gonna be in Razorbacks since they have no fire points. Then give the Razorbacks twin las if you can find the points.

I don't know how I feel about the stormravens. I know they can lay down some hurt and are a great delivery system for dreads since they lost the ability to use DPs. But it's a lot of points.

Personal preference would be drop a raven and a dread add a DC squad to ride in the raven and then a pred with las. Giving a little more anti-MEQ and anti-tank.

Cheers for feedback! I think it would make a lot of sense to focus on just one raven and maximise lemartes/priest value.

With the tacs, how should they be kitted? The plan was to hold an objective and provide some fire support, but yeah LC's probably aren't great for that. Maybe a heavy flamer for overwatch defence?

Similarly with the new foot-company, should they just be bare bones with a few plasmas thrown in, or should they be balls to the wall TH/PF/inferno pistols?

I've mocked up a new quick list. This one is MEQ/TEQ foussed, with some heavy flamers for objective holding.

New list looks solid.

For TACs I like either heavy flamer or plasma depending on points and what my armies lacking.

I think what you have with the foot company is perfect It has a good variety already. I find inferno too expensive personally

Happy hunting..

Cheers! My opponents are running quite a bit of TEQ, so I might trade the preadator in for another tac squad and a las-razor. I'll chuck plasma loadout on two of the tac squads, flame for the other two.

Out of my two most recent games I ran las-tacs for one, plasmas and flamers for the other. Heavy + combi flamers put in quite a bit of work, especially in overwatch, but the plasmas were a real highlight. I'll definitely have a play with the list, but so far it's looking pretty hot, cheers for the feedback!
