Split the marines into squads of ten and give them rhinos. Gets them up faster and protects them

Idk, are rhino worth it now that the troops can not assault the turn they disembark? Even with the rhino not moving at all.

You are really limited on scoring units, and currently they are both kinda slow/short range.

I know it's probably heresy, but I might consider losing a hell drake for a 9 zerker rhino squad. And then split the current squad, lose a man (or however you are planning to escort your chars) and drop cultists till you can get two more rhinos.

Alternatively I could see dropping the cultists to a min squad for home-objective camping instead of losing the flyer.

The rhinos aye worth it, when you're foot slogging you're throwing models away. Rhinos will get you there faster. Rapid fire when you disembark and assault them the next turn. If they charge you, you get to rapid fire AGAIN with over watch and you get counter attack
