Battlescribe shows this list at 2529 points for me:

 

Praetor 170

Tac Squad in Rhino 170

Tac Squad in Rhino 170

Terminator Squad 344

Spartan 390

Vet Squad in Rhino 285

Sicaran 215

Sicaran 215

Vindicator Squadron 285

 

Are you using the newest red book?

 

If you drop one Sicaran and swap the Praetor to a Terranic Greatsword then you can afford another Las Destroyer Vindi with Command Tank and Machine Spirit. If all 3 Vindicators shoot overcharged at the same target you've got 9 S9 AP1 BS5 Twin-linked Ordnance Tank/Monster Hunter Shots.

 

I'd also consider the Seekers over the Veterans. I don't have any experience with them, but on paper they look like a pretty solid use of the Exterminator rule for Ironwing - particularly if your meta has any hordes of 4+ or 6+ armor guys.

Ya I'm definetly over a few points, have to figure out what to change. 

 

I forgot vindicators can take a command tank in squadrons of three, I'll definetly make that change since that's too good to pass up on. Deredeo with the lascannons would be very good, but I feel like the three vindicators brings enough really strong anti tank firepower. 

 

I might swap out a veteran squad for some seekers, they certainly would shine with this rite. 

 

Terranic greatsword seems cool, but for a preator meant to chill with some terminators and go after +2 armor targets, it doesn't seem like a good choice. The lack of ap2 just sucks. Now on a centurion I'd take one, just not a preator. I'll swap out the sicaran though for that third laser vindicator. 

 

Thanks for the replies guys.
