Hey Zeb. cool avatar btw
okay first thinsg first, im agreeing with hairy here. PICS DAMN YOU! or tho shalt be beaten with a very large imperial primer when i see you next! or possibly a very large sword. whatever i happen to have at hand. ^_^

Right threats and pics demands aside, you look as if youve read the fluff on huron and seen the truely awesome model, and decided "thats the army for me" so all in all. good choice.
as for the models you currently have, it looks as you've used the models in the £50 ste well, tho, i would have assembled those 5 marines with CCW as with bolters, as at the end of the day, CSM do have a bolt pistol and CCW on top of thier bolter. dirty i know, but it does pay to maticulusly read your dex in 40K trust me on that.
as for your expansions.
Termies: All your eggs in one basket kinda thing there, but then again it might work for you. but at the end of the day, the aim of the game in 40K is for your units to make up thier points cost and keep going. so, if you buy 200pts of termies, will they kill 200pts of enemy models?
Obliterators: i see no problems there unless your plannign a fluffy army.
as for the lack of vehicles you were talking about. if your thinking of going for a Red corsairs hit and run style army, maybe you need to re think that idea, and the bikes. good idea, maybe some raptors would help you out as well. but at the end of the day the choice is yours.

now, if you are planning to do a fluffy Red Corsairs army, it might be worth your while to go here and read this: [link]http://redelf.h1.ru/w40k/ia/w40k_ia_badabwar.html[/link] its an article on the Badab war, the full story as it happens, involveing all the history of the corsairs and the other chapters that rebelled, and the chapters that fought them off.

well theres my opninion, hope it helps you out
oh BTW zeb, i want to see your huron model saturday...infact...
would you be up for a quick game of 400-500pts combat patrol on saturday at GW?
