If your melee and need range. Would you choose
1. 2x 5 havoks with 4 lascannon each 290 cost
2. 2x Decimator with 2x soul burners each 360
3. 3 helbrutes with multi melta 315
4. 3 obliterators 270

Depends on the rest of your list, what kind of games you’re playing, and what you expect to face.

I'd actually argue Obliterators. While you say you need range support, Obliterators get a lot more mileage out of both parts of the Word Bearers rules. You can use them as range support, but aggressively put pressure.

obliterators for me. Easier to hide and native deepstrike (free with AoO)

can deal with heavy armor (focused mailice), heavy infantry (ruinous salvo) and hordes (warp hail)

move and shoot without penalty and can shoot into combat if things try to tie them up. if enemy get close can counter charge, full use of WB legion tacts for rerolls to hit and daemon keyword to sync nicely with master of possession and other daemon buffing stuff

doesn't quite have the long range that your las havoks would have I guess but most games in my experience you are rarely going to be shooting from board edge to edge and usually end up with a big scrap in the midboard for objectives to win so range is less of an issue

"Courage and Honour. I hear you murmur these words in the mist, in their wake I hear your hearts beat harder with false conviction seeking to convince yourselves that a brave death has meaning.
There is no courage to be found here my nephews, no honour to be had. Your souls will join the trillion others in the mist shrieking uselessly to eternity, weeping for the empire you could not save.

To the unfaithful, I bring holy plagues ripe with enlightenment. To the devout, I bring the blessing of immortality through the kiss of sacred rot.
And to you, new-born sons of Gulliman, to you flesh crafted puppets of a failing Imperium I bring the holiest gift of all.... Silence."
