Could a command squad with 4 meltas work well if put in a razorback?

If you're talking about the Imperial Guard Company Command Squad, that's not a legal option. Razorbacks are not an Imperial Guard transport, and the Imperial Guard cannot embark upon the transport vehicles of allied contingents.

I suppose it would work, but do remember that Razorbacks lack firing points.

They need to disembark to fire but yes I believe it could work well. If you want to go crazy with the squad you can make it cost a ton of points and give them anti-tank melee power too with power fists, thunderhammers or melta-bombs.

A rhino would prob work better, for the firepoints. Also it might be worth leaving 1/2 models without meltas in order to eat the first bullets, espeicaly as they cant all fire out of the top hatch.

Not really worthit, your basically making a suicide unit that aren't as good or as versatile sternguard. Go with plasma for the range and double tap ability.

Not to mention the FNP given to them by the apothecary. It gives extra protection for those plasmagun get's hot rolls.

He wants AT. Unless he is up against orks, in which case those plasma's will work great against squadrons, then you should take meltas. Rhino rushing (or in your case razorback rushing) is great with meltas. There is no point in a rhino due to the meltas range. IMHO melta gun's are the best AT weapon in the game for SM infantry. And that razor should have a HB or something. You already have all those meltas for AT, it might as well give covering fire while there merrily blasting away at a tank.
