It's for a local tourney. I want the nastiest 3k points that I can field. How would this do?

I am thinking something along the lines of:

Master, toys, 4 x terminators, tank hunter with 2 x a cannons

Librarian, toys, 4 x terminators, tank hunter with 2 x a cannons

5 x termies, auspex, chainfist, 2 x a cannon

5 x termies, auspex, chainfist, 2 x a cannon

5 x termies, auspex, chainfist, 2 x a cannon

8 x marines, 2 x plasma gun, vet searg w/ power fist

8 x marines, 2 x plasma gun, vet searg w/ power fist

8 x marines, 2 x plasma gun, vet searg w/ power fist

8 x marines, 2 x plasma gun, vet searg w/ power fist

8 x marines, 2 x plasma gun, vet searg w/ power fist

8 x marines, 2 x plasma gun, vet searg w/ power fist

Loads of a cannons and plasma, there may even be enough points left over to give the seargeants plasma pistols as well.

Would this be the nastiest way to drop marines at this point level? Would you use dreads for some more anti tank or will the tank hunting termies be enough?

It just doesnt seem like 3k. At that point level it would seem very easy for any horde army to just overwhelm you with numbers.

Yeah, numbers are what worry me as well. Perhaps drop a squad of termies for more marine bodies?
