Inner Circle list I've had some success with. C&C welcome.

There's something incredibly satisfying about dropping 10 terminators and a captain in your enemy's deployment zone on round 1 and absolutely shredding whatever is sitting on their home objective. Deathwing Assault, relic teleportarium and this unit is the whole point of Inner Circle Task Force, IMO. If you're not doing it, you probably would be better off using a different detachment. If you have to use relic teleportarium to get there, fine. But it's better if you can drop in and charge, as the captain will give you multiple chances at making that roll.

The Deathwing Knights and attached chaplain go in the Land Raider and force the issue in the middle. The Hellblasters with Azrael and the lieutenant are on foot, and I set them up to threaten both the middle and a flank, usually working in concert with the Redemptor. The Ballistus hunkers down in the deployment zone somewhere with cover and good firing lanes. The assault Intercessors and the Inceptors deep strike in to do objective work in round 2 or later.

I have a game Monday against a much more experienced player who will be running Veterans of the Long War. No idea what his list looks like so far, but he has no idea what I'll be running either.

I know I have 20 points and could upgrade to a Redeemer over the basic Land Raider, but I think I need the anti-tank more than the overwatch threat, TBH. But I will hear arguments to the contrary.

What do you think?
