(please don't suggest to remove sanguinor cause he's too epic)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/358677/2640131.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/358677/2640131.page GMT
If you want to use the Sanguinor, you should really try to use the +1 Attack bubble he creates. Given how durable he is, why not try a Descent of Angels based list? You would not take any vehicles, and take 10 man Assault Squads and Vanguard Veteran Squads and plan to deep strike everything.

Here is an example list at 1850:

HQ: Sanguinor 275
HQ: Librarian with Jump Pack, Shield and Unleash Rage 125
EL: 2 Sanguinary Priests with Jump Packs 150
TR: 10 Assault Marines, 2 Meltaguns, Power Fist 235
TR: 10 Assault Marines, 2 Meltaguns, Power Fist 235
TR: 10 Assault Marines, 2 Flamers 200
TR: 10 Assault Marines, 2 Flamers 200
FA: 5 Vanguard Veterans, Jump Packs, Power Fist Sarge 175
FA: 5 Vanguard Veterans, Jump Packs, Power Fist Sarge 175

Total: 1770
This leaves 80 points for wargear. I'd suggest some Storm Shields and Power Weapons for the VV squads, maybe Power Weapons for the flamer squads or exchanging Flamers for Plasmaguns. I'm going off memory for points so I may have made some mistakes.

If you want to work off the current list, I'd suggest dropping 5 of the Death Company, the Scouts and the Devastators to take a bunch of 5 man Assault Squads in Razorbacks, as well as 3 Predators with Heavy Bolter Sponsons. This way you can at least make use of all your opponent's fire going into the Stormraven. 5 DC Marines with a Reclusiarch will still do plenty of killing.

Local meta... WAAC v fun... etc, etc, etc...

1) I suggest taking a second and possible third scoring unit. You current list relies on five scouts to capture objectives. Most opponents will find it easy to shoot or assault move you off of objectives. I can see you have the homer to be able to call in help to the scouts, but i just think it is enough.
2) I think you will find it more efficient to drop two the two plasma cannons or the two las cannons from your devastators. You can only fire at one target and with BS4 and S7 / S9, you should be able to do some damage without spending the extra points.
3) A Baal predator or two could add some nice fire support to your assault heavy army.

Play around with the different units and try something new each time. You will find some things just work better than others when on the table as opposed to on paper. Good luck!
