I see a distinct lack of anti-amor ranged weapons. You have a couple, but they just don't cut it, usually.

If your sergeant had actually had the powerfist, you would've had a much better chance against the defiler. 2 attacks, hitting on 3's, damaging on 4's, instead of 1 that's 6 by 6.

I figure the Vet. Assault Squad would be my anti-tank force. I could drop one of the attach bikes and give them all melta bombs and one of the assault squad Vet. Sgts a fist instead of the power sword. I can't really throw in more ranged weapons unless I drop something and add a devistator squad or a tank. I'd love to try a land speeder squadron, but I don't have the cash for more minis.

found the templates to make my own landspeeders. I figure I can get away with having some "cardboard cutouts" to experiment with. With a squadron of 3 landspeeders: 2 with multimelta and assault cannon and one with the typhoon launcher, and maybe a bike squadron, I can get up to 2000 points and have some nice firepower and maintain the speedy aspect of my army.

Landspeeder Squadron 275
- 3 landspeeders w/ multimeltas
- 2 assault cannons
- 1 typhoon missile launcher

Bike Squadron 195
- Vet. Sgt. w/ plasma pistol, power fist
- 3 bikers
- meltagun
- flamer

That leaves me with 30 pts. to spare. probably throw in another Vet. Assault Marine
