I'm having some trouble building my 30K force. I'm making dark angels using the pride of the legion rite of war but it's becoming quite difficult writing a list. The issue is I can't really find things that support my troop choice which is the following

Veteran Tactical Squad - 150
Melta Gun, Combi Melta
w/ Tank Hunter
Rhino - 35

Veteran Tactical Squad - 150
Melta Gun, Combi Melta
w/ Tank Hunter
Rhino - 35

Veteran Tactical Squad - 150
Melta Gun, Combi Melta
w/ Tank Hunter
Rhino - 35

Veteran Tactical Squad - 165
Plasma Gun, Plasma Pistol
w/ Sniper
Rhino - 35

Veteran Tactical Squad - 165
Plasma Gun, Plasma Pistol
w/ Sniper
Rhino - 35

Veteran Tactical Squad - 150
Heavy Flamer, Combi Flamer
w/ Outflank
Rhino - 50
w/ Heavy Flamer

I need support options but I have no idea where to go from here, my original idea was a cc focused praetor on bike with a cc focused command squad with fists and shields. Anybody have suggestions?

With all the Rhinos I'd suggest dropping the PotL all together and go for the Ironwing RoW, since it gives you some pretty nice army wide rules beyond being slightly better swordsmen than other Marines. Turn some of your vets into support squads or drop them for tanks.

Put the Melee Praetor and the Command Squad in a Land Raider or Spartan.

If you insist upon the PotL I'd drop the Plasma Pistol for Combi-Plas, maybe also drop a squad or two for Support Squads with Plasma Guns.

Yup, drop PotL like the rotten apple it is ( It's not that bad, just super limiting and kinda, really meh) and take Iron wing since it already fits your list pretty well.

I'll never be able to repay CA for making GW realize that The Old World was a cash cow, left to die in a field.

I play mech-legion myself with my Iron Warriors. The biggest thing you can add to your army is more or less are more tanks and/or walkers. Luckily in that regards you are spoiled for choice. Here are two that comes to mind for me.

-Box-naught mortis dreads with lascannons will help you pack alot more anti-tank/anti-air in the list. If you run Iron-Wing, this would also give them Tank-hunters.

-Interlocking Fire could be interesting with Las-array vindicators now that they can squadron together.
