I am playing in my very first tournament since 3rd edition at my FLGS tomorrow. I planned this list because I assumed I'd go second and be alpha struck. (Devs would deploy in the razor, dread in the raven and the razors would screen Bobby and the libbie).

However, it turns out we'll be using the ITC mission/rules. I could easily go first. So I'm wondering should I

(a) Play this list and opt to go second, unless I can blast my opponent with at least 2 dev squads
(b) Redo this list for more anti-troop/horde stuff

I know at least one guy runs Bobby + devs and conscripts to screen.

For instance, I could run:

Put the tac with the captain in the AC razor and move it forward... the rest is basically the same as above. The Melta dread gets dropped midfield to make shooting a choice between those tasty lascannon and him.
