I would keep the Melta guns. Basic Bikers will maul IG and Tanks are the main threat (though Plasma is bad too.)

The Crozius is a single handed weapon. Think of it as a power weapon with a differen't name.

3 Squads of Assault Marines, using cover should go through a Guard army with few, if any problems.

3 Squads of Bikers can turbo turn 1 and blast 3 Russes turn 2. Good choices.

So thats most of the IG stuff dealt with. The LST's can deal with more annoying aspects such as Stormtroopers, maybe veterans if they're well deployed to avoid combat etc.

Overall a nice list to beat IG with. You can deal with 4 Squads of Guardsman on the Charge (Assault Marnes+Chaplain.) Bikers with melta's are death to tanks of the IG variety. LST's are great all around. Well concieved and executed.

I am surprised to here you call yourself a newbie, this is a great first time list.
