So I've built my Iron Warriors with a mix of mk3 and Primaris armour, so running them as Loyalists is feasible. The thing is, although I have the Dex, I never really look at it so I don't really know where to go from what I have. Here's what I've got ATM.

Terminator Captain - (combimelta, chainfist)
Terminator Librarian - (power sword, storm bolter)

Tactical Squad - (power axe, combimelta, meltagun)
Tactical Squad - (power axe, combimelta, meltagun)
Tactical Squad - (power axe, combimelta, meltagun)

Aggressor Squad - (flamestorm gauntlets)
Aggressor Squad - (flamestorm gauntlets)
Aggressor Squad - (flamestorm gauntlets)

Biker Squad - (combimelta, twin boltgun, meltagun x2)
Biker Squad - (combimelta, twin boltgun, meltagun x2)
Biker Squad - (combimelta, twin boltgun, meltagun x2)

That's what I have built ATM. I have a bunch of stuff NoS still...

Marines (various weapons, vanilla, devs, stern)
Ironclad Dread x2
Rhino x6
Drop pod x3
JP marines (various weapons)
HQs (I can kitbash whatever)
Scouts (camo and rifles)
Terminators (my agressors, so combiflamer/powerfists)
Cataphractii Terminators
Inceptors

Some things I'd like to build/purchase...

Contemptor Dreads
More Marines, Inceptors, JP squads, Cata Terms, Vindicators

I think that about covers it. What do you guys think I could run with for an 1850 or 2k list and be semi-competitive? Hopefully including what I have built, or could build out of the stuff I have. Thanks in advance.

how about this?

Salamanders Battalion - 1848

(1) Cataphractii Captain (warlord, chainfist, combimelta, the salamander's mantle, iron resolve)
(1) Terminator Librarian (force sword, storm bolter)
(3) Tactical Squad (9 bodies, combimelta, axe, melta)
(3) Aggressor Squad
(3) Ironclad Dreadnought (hammer, flamer x2)
(3) Rhino (missles, storm bolter x2)

Is this competitive at all?

Hi there,
I wouldnt build the ironclads with the hammers, the chainfist is nasty enough and doesnt have a -1 to hit either.

i would consider using plasma over melta for the tactical squad too - just greater flex in what you can attack.

Maybe drop an aggressor squad and use a bike squad instead? Gives you a lot more speed/ ability to cover the board - 3 squads feels like excessive dakka!
