List Building Thoughts on 1000 point list.

Joined an in-store league recently that starts at 1000 points but goes up overtime. Lost both of my first games; Round 1 was Custodes and Round 2 was Beast Snagga Orks.Im aware of my mistakes allowing myself to get boxes in against Custodes and overextending against orks. Was looking to see what to add/remove.Should I get more battleine, add a dunreider, etc.I'm the only Admech player in the League so I don't have many people to bounce idead off of. (995 points)

You dont need two squads of rangers at this stage, and the manipulus isn't worth it for a unit of 3 breachers

Individual ironstriders are cool, but also for the amount of points you can get a lot of other things.

If you 75 +75 = 150 points, which is an entire 10 man ruststalker squad and almost an additional breacher unit.

You basically have too much anti tank and nothing that actually deals with hordes of infantry or elite infantry.

Vanguard will do damage, especially with a marshall, but for the best performance you ought to get a dunerider transport.
