3K Logos melee heavy

[Cruor Vault]

I'm torn on my Heavy Support choices.  I have been using 4 predators split into 2 squads and LOVING them, but with this list I am looking to cover all my bases.  The Scorpius gives me psychological threat + indirect capabilities.  I LOVE the assault squads, but I've been unimpressed with the Locutarus (hence including them, so I can get better with them).

 

I can't figure out a better place to put the MoS than a HSS squad as they lose the least when paired with him.  If I throw him into the Recons then I would lose the Skirmish bonus.

Hola

List looks good! - I'd do these tweaks if it we're me, but there's nothing wrong with how it is 

 

I'd swap out the Tartaros Delegatus for a Praetor with thunder hammer and a vanilla boarding shield... +1 attack +1 ld, retains heavy for rerolled saves vs blast. +20 pts

Stick a thunder hammer on the Locutarus leader. +15 pts
Artificer armour for the HSS sgt. +10 pts
Dozer blades on the Rhino's. + 10 pts

 

Total + 55 pts... make one assault squad 10 strong?
 

Also, I'd be keen to give those assault squad sgt's artificer armour!
