Well I am planning what to buy for my Word Bearers Army and i need your opinion on my list. ( see below)

Looks good, drop some Bloodletters and get a second rhino instead. And always give your rhinos smoke and extra armour!!
Try to get flamers/meltaguns instead of plasma guns for your troops, these do more good than plasma guns for assault squads.
I'd also swap the plasma cannons for twin lascannons, as you're lacking in ranged tank killers.
Remember to give your Lord a bolt pistol for +1 attack .

Lol, don't give the Lord a power weapon, he already has his accursed Croziusm just give him a bolt pistol for the extra attack .

The Obliterators are expensive, but give you good firepower. They also add some resilience, and can draw enemy fire away from your important (Daemon summoning) CSM squads. Good choice .

I wouldn't take all-flamers, add some horrors so when they get shot at you can remove them instead of the more powerful (and expensive) Flamers. If you want to use 10 models a 5/5 mix is good.

Also try to free up some points for that second rhino. You save some points by swapping the Lord's power weapon for a bolt pistol, and by downgrading half the Flamers to Horrors. This won't get you enough points for a rhino tohugh, I suggest you drop the Daemonic Rune on the Lord, as he's an independant character he should never be targetable by enemy fire, and you should keep him away from S10 close combat thingies anyway (those are meant to be shot ).

Thanks again. The only reason i gave him a power weapon was because im not to fond of taking those mastery tests, but i guess its not worth the points. ok I figure i will do 6 horors and 4 flamers then. Um why do i need another rhino I have nothing else i can put in it? Do you mean i need to free up some points for upgrades for my second rhino?

Whoops my bad, somehow I managed to miss the fact that both squads had rhinos. I seem to have a problem reading AB text summaries.
