I've been doing a lot of thinking about my army and while I think it's fairly solid, I wasn't entirely content with the final list I posted a couple days ago. I uploaded my army to our club forums to see what the guys thought and Farseer Frank suggested I add a Drop Pod for the Death Company Dreadnaught so it wouldn't get shot up while moving across the battlefield.
I liked the idea of the Drop Pod as I could deliver the Dreadnaught right into the thick of the action, but I wanted two of them so I had some flexibility with my deployment so I added another Assault Squad and put them in a Drop Pod.
With the loss of the Baal Predator I wanted more anti infantry and anti mech so I took a third Land Speeder Tornado. Lastly, I wanted some additional long range firepower. Another Dreadnaught with 2 twin-linked autocannons should do the trick. Below is my re-adjusted list.

I'll have to proxy quite a few models to go with this build, but the other guys in the club are okay with it. My primary concern is that I don't have enough models and I won't survive a war of attrition. I'm hoping the Sanguinary Priests and some careful maneuvering should be enough to keep me in the battle. We'll see how it goes.
If anyone has any suggestions or tactics on this list, let me know what you think. I'll try and take some pics on Sunday and possibly do a battle report or two.
Till then,
