What you think?

At first glance I think I would drop the hunter-killer missiles and the Vindicator for a Devastator squad. I have never been a fan of the Vindicator and hunter-killer missiles are a point sink for one shot for 15 points IMO.

I do agree with what you say. I want to play some games with it to see what happens first. The pred vindi and dread can get some decent anti armor out while the assault marines with Shrike and the chappy tie up heavy units and troops while my tacs are mobilized in the rhinos to push for objectives. Than i can use them for tank shocks and cover.
