Been trying to play that style since for a while, but it never worked.
With IH codex I think it's now playable.
But will need some tweaking.

Iron father will be jogging behind one group of tanks, the librarian will be surrounded by the 2nd group of tanks, moving as needed.

The intercessors will be securing objectives in deployment zone tac squad is there because I ran out of points. With luck they can finish some vehicles.

Hqs will have to take care of all melees, so list will be keeping distance as much as possible.
So while preserving the concept, how to make it better?

Ironstone has to be taken by a techmarine.

If we fail to anticipate the unforeseen or expect the unexpected in a universe of infinite possibilities, we may find ourselves at the mercy of anyone or anything that cannot be programmed, categorized or easily referenced.

The ironstone can be used by any character.

Although target protocols can only be given to one character not two. Warlord traits cant be replicated.

Nice list though. Try some land speeders with assault cannons to clear chaff or hordes.

I'm seeing a couple issues here. Mostly, that Predators and Vindicators are struggling units and you can only buff them so much.

Predators have good DPS, but are extremely fragile. Your durability buffs will bring their survivability up to par with other units, but you're ultimately spending a lot of points and effort

I hit 'Submit' by mistake, so I'll append this onto my last post:
Vindicators are more durable and also have decent DPS, but are incredibly random and have a short range, meaning you'l have to roll them out of the range of your buff units and spread out your screens in order to cover them.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
To add on to what I said earlier about Predators: There are objectively better choices, eapecially for Iron Hands.
Compare a quad-Lascannon Predator to a quad-Lascanno Contemptor Mortis and Relic Contemptor.
The Mortis is 7pts cheaper, has 1 fewer wound, and has 2+ BS. It benefits from several stratagems that Predators can't use, and can fight in melee. (And you can throw on a Cyclone Missile Launcher if you have points to spare.) It has a 5+ invuln, though Feirros makes that redundant.
The Relic is 15pts more and has all the advantages of the Mortis, plus 12w and a 2+ armor save.
