Hi yousef64

I like what you are doing with the list, but you have zero AA and you was wasting vulkans twin linked ability with those ML on the tacts.

The 1 sucide drop pod doesn't look to appealing and there's a lot of upgrades to your tacts that really won't get used.

I would swap the rhino and RB for 2 more drop pods, the ML for MM, lost the Attack bikes and power weapons on the tacts and replace those with 2 Stormtalons.

Your deployment would just be the Landraider on the table, imagine the other guys face. That's a very hard first blood for most people.

I'm gonna piggy back off of sam918 here. The Suicide Drop Pod is trying to do to many things all at once, drop some gear from this squad and save yourself some points. You need to decide exactly what you want this group to do, kill large infantry groups, or kill vehicles, and focus on doing just that. Power weapons on Tac Sgt. is not a good investment. Tactical squads want to loose combats so they can fail the Morale Check, auto re-group thanks to ATSKNF, and then shoot the crap out of the unit they were just involved in.
