Overall, I like the list. I'd personally drop the broadsides though. I'd grab another hammerhead, this time with a railcannon. With that done, i'd use any remaining points to get another cheapo 50pt crisis suit.
With that done, your army hits a lot harder, has another bloody skimmer, and overall looks neater.

Eh, I could go either way on the Broadsides; them and the Railhead both have their merits. Which one "hits harder" really depends on what kind of target you're shooting at. Should you come up against a horde army, the submunition will really save you, but if you find yourself facing someone with three Predators, you'll be thankful for the more reliable S10 shots. The Railhead would also save you enough to maybe pick up some Vectored Thrusters for your Commander, and you could always swap his CIB for Fusion if you're really worried about having enough anti-tank. I'll leave it up to you. One thing I'd suggest, though, is swapping the Target Lock on the Ionhead for Decoy Launchers.

Not going to drop the broadsides as its the only tank hunting i have really and if i drop them and put in another HH knowing my luck 1st turn ill lose it and the enemy will have a russ still on the field and i cant let that happen. The target lock was to soak 5pts i had spair and will work good with the ion cannon shooting at stronger targets while the burst cannons killing lighter targets. Lastly i wanted vectro thrusters on my lord but i gave him an Ion Blaster and with its 5 shots thou at st3 with targetting array he is at BS5 and hits with 4/5 most times and then just have to hope for rolls of 6's to wound ^_^. I just really like the broadsides i love the model and what it does and it does alot of dmg but can take alot of dmg aswell with the shield drones and soaks alot of shots, while tanks get downed with a lucky shot -_- Thanks But, So is anyone else going too Brisbane conflict this year? also i dont wanna buy another tank b4 conflict

I'm thinking about going with my Daemonhunters, but I might end up going to BIG March if I can get enough figures painted in time... which is not likely. So I'll probably be at Conflict :p

To get my DHs to 750 I have 14 more figures to paint which are 30-50% completed at the moment. To get 1750 for BIGMarch, I'd need to do an additional 35 Cadians, 3 GK Terminators, 6 Rough Riders, a Callidus Assassin, Chimera, Rhino and Dreadnought... so yeah, probably not going to BIGMarch, haha. Conflict should be awesome, let me knwo if you wanna catch up at GW City store for a practice match one arvo!

This list seems a little too low on models at 750 pts. The lower the pts value of a game, the worse off you are if one stroke of bad luck can cripple huge points investments (like Broadsides). I would take a Railhead instead to get the submunitions option if you need some adaptability, and use the extra points for a couple more crisis suits, or maybe some pathfinders. Crisis suits with fusion guns can do a good tankhunting number to replace the Broadside, but are more adaptable and mobile.
Two teams of two crisis suits could probably serve you better than one team of crisis + commander.
