I've been putting together a force for 2000 point games and I use the Raptors chapter tactics. Constructive critique and suggestions are welcome.

There are a few points left to play with so let me know what you think of this arrangement or what should be changed to make this better as a take all comers FLGS type list.

seems okay to me except the single drop pod. there going to shoot once and then get killed. if you face for instance my outflank raven guard there going to be a total waste of points.

I'm running Raptors tactics for my Revilers and althought i've had very few games, the Rending really does help take out pesky tau suits!

the list looks solid but i agree on the lonely drop pod sternguars, they'll be shot up first turn. i also always go for las plas on my razorbacks, trading TL for an extra, potentially rapid fire gun (meaning you can take 2 weapon destroyed results too) is often useful, plus with the chapter tactics you can scout them in close first turn.
