I'd say you should get another troop unit in there mate, your army is solid but in an objective game if I take 16 t3 wounds off you the best you can do is draw

Need more scoring to be competitive. Two Riptides is enough to be competitive.

If I dropped a Riptide. Would 3x 10 man Kroot maybe with hound sound good?

Turn some of those xv88s and a riptide into a firebase cadre. You're already taking the models and getting free tank hunters and PE space marines is awesome.
