I'm fairly new to 40k but I've taken quite a liking to tinkering with army lists. If anyone has some feedback for my mechanized Raven Guard TSF I'd be happy to hear it!

Raven Guard TSF

Pinion Demi-Company - 1195

Captain

Assault Squad (10) 2 x Flamer

Devastators (5) 4x Lascannon, Cherub
Scout Squad (5) 5x Sniper Rifles, Cloaks

Tactical Squad (5) Plasma Gun, Combi-Plasma, Razorback (Las + TL Plasma)
Scout Squad (5) Bolters, Cloaks

Tactical Squad (5) Grav-Gun, Combi-Grav, Razorback (Las + TL Plasma)
Scout Squad (5) Bolters, Cloaks

Tactical Squad (5) Melta-Gun, Combi-Melta, Razorback (Las + TL Plasma)
Scout Squad (5) Bolters, Cloaks

Raptorwing - 305
Land Speeder (1) HB
Storm Talon (2) TLAC, Typhoon

The idea is to use the tactical flexibility afforded by potential outflanking with the scouts and by giving 4 units / turn ignore cover. I think it gives the option to do a limited turn 1 deployment if you are concerned about alpha strike, or have a decent board presence. The assault squad is mostly there to be a screen/rapid response force. My captain is probably going to derp around like an idiot.

I've not played very many games, so I'm just curious to know your thoughts!

So what's cool about the list is that it can utilize the mobility in outflanking the dev squad, then shoot at full BS having the captain in it. Tons of shooting from Ignores Cover + Command Squad.
All in a 1500pt list... it's fairly strong; lots of strong weapons, lots of ignores cover, and many ways to play the list thanks to very mobile scout squads.
