Ok, so this is my first serious attempt at an army list. most of the people that play around me use Marines. so this list is kinda heavy on Anti-MEQ (Why I have Bloodletters. I was at first thinking Daemonettes)

I have the plague marines for Obj holding, keeping my warlord in one of them. The sorcerer rolls once on Nurgle, twice on Biomancy, stays in reserves with the terminators. I switch the Heralds lesser reward with an aether blade, and hope I get good rolls on the greater reward. The Khorne marines are my anti-assualt unit. to hopefully keep my plague marines from being tied up in H2H and keep them away from objectives. Obliterators do the usual heavy shooting at armor. The heldrake will hopefully just eliminate any of the MEQ guys running around (Thank you AP3 flamer with torrent. lol)

Now for questions
Would it be better to instead of mixing my termies up (Since they're kinda shooty, kinda assault) making them purely one or the other?
Would it be better to deepstrike the oblits, or start them on the field? (BT guy rolls his Warlord and termies all with TH/SS into fight in a land raider)
Been thinking of dropping sorcerer for either more troops or tweak some things to get another heldrake
Daemonettes are cheaper and have rending, but I keep the bloodletters for their AP3 swords. would it be safe to stay this way against MEQ's?

Tear it apart people. please. lol

The best Deamon Ally for CSM is Tzench Herald lv 3 Psy and take 1 Divn power to get presc for TL a single CSM unit. THrow him in with some horros and camp on a objective.
