Hello, I am currently pounding out a competitive list for my Iron Hands. I'm having difficulty transitioning from my Dark Eldar and just can't seem to get the SM list to 'bite.' I've tried a couple variations of the Fist of Medusa and this is the latest experiment:

Stormlance-demi company

Chaplin - Jump pack

Tactical squad - x5, Grav-cannon
- Razorback - Dozer-blade, Twin-linked Lascannon

Tactical squad - x5, Grav-cannon
- Razorback - Dozer-blade, Twin-linked Lascannon

Tactical squad - x5, Grav-cannon
- Razorback - Dozer-blade, Twin-linked Lascannon

Bike Squad - x3, x2 Grav-gun

Devastator Squad - x5, x4 Lascannons
- Razorback - Dozer-blade, Twin-linked Lascannon

Skyhammer Annihilation Force

Assault Squad - x10, x2 evicerators

Assault Squad - x10, x2 evicerators

Devastator Squad - x4 Plasma cannons
-Drop pod - locator beacon

Devastator Squad - x4 Plasma cannons
-Drop pod - locator beacon

So, the Annihilation Force comes down in enemy lines and runs rampant. The Stormlance deals with vehicles at range, then with infantry when it gets within range of the grav-cannons/guns. Th chaplain will be waiting in the wings with one of the assault squads to deal out I've tried the Fist of medusa before using a battle demi-company with chaplain, rhinos and meltas, a contemptor and a strike force command with honor guard an captain. it just seemed like it floundered both times I took it. Does anybody have any tips?
