-Consider adding sponsons to your Russes. This will really up their firepower.
-You're rather low on anti-horde firepower (although you do have 4 multi-lasers , a bassy, and an exterminator). Consider dropping a Russ for some that kills horded (wyverns, 25 trooper autocannon grenade launcher platoon, etc).

Good luck!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/712808/9109404.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/712808/9109404.page GMT [1500] - Astra Militarum - General Advice needed

Also, you lack bodies. You will be slaughtered without an infantry platoon with at least 3 Infantry squads and a heavy weapon squad or two.
