Looking for a little feedback from others. I realize my list has little to no anit-air but the main focus is on heavy alpha strike. I want to shut people down fast and hard.

The demolishers short range wont be very helpful. Medusa's would do better for cheaper for that 36" S10 AP2. And for an extra 5 pts. That becomes AP1 and rolls 2 d6 for armor pen. The plasma guns are nice. But overpriced. And if you have a nack for rolling 1's can be costly. The manticor missile launcher is a good idea. If you can shave some points you might be able to field a vendetta for some tank popping and anti air. As for troops vets are always good. Maybe go long range infantry suppression.

This may work alittle better.

I get the idea behind using more, cheaper special weapons like snipers but I have yet to get anything good out of snipers as a whole. I can't stand them tbh.

The idea with the old list was to move everything forward and open up vehicles/armor with my demolishers and manticore, then plasma spam everything that falls out. However I think I can accomplish that with these modifications. I threw in 2 Vendettas and decided to keep my guys back a bit to wait for the air support. I can drop in my vets when everything is cleared. This list offers me a lot more ant-armor and anti-air.
