I've played two games with this now, with varying degrees of success. One game went very well but I had rather...meh luck which cost the game, and the other was a tie but it was largely uneffective.
I'll post it, but what do you guys think? It works pretty well, but I'd like opinions, I've had bad luck with full-on dropping and this has worked as a sort of compromise.

HQ
Librarian (Shield of Sanguinius, Fear of the Darkness, Jump Pack) 125 points

ELITES
2 Sanguinary Priests – Jump Packs
2 Furiosos, Talons, Heavy Flamer, locator beacons on drop pods

4 Assault squads (10xmodels), 1 squad with Plasma Pistol on sgt, all with sgts PF, 2x meltaguns, 3 squads with JP, 1 with Drop Pod (so that I can DS 2 pods in the first turn)

3 Auto Predators, lascannons, searchlights

You may want to consider taking speeders or a baal pred or 2 those give amazing fire support without risk of hitting your own units like a vindicator.

Over all I would worry about the furiosos just being caught out in the open and getting shot to pieces.

Yeah, that's usually a problem, I usually find a decent place to drop them to avoid said fire, and recently I've been doing better.

And thanks about the Baals, I've been more and more considering getting one of those puppies to throw in there.

So I've had some pretty decent games with them recently, batrep for one coming up later today.
