Well, some rules that will be stupid are the ones in the blood angels. In the new dex, players can deep strike tanks in, which is totally ridiculous.

You fire 2 melta guns and 8 bolters at some terminators, both meltas hit, but since you also have bolter hits, 2 melta hits are stacked on the same guy instead of different ones, potentially giving you less casualties than if you just fired the meltas alone due to armor saves.

How I would fix this:
Each ap value of weapon has its own allocation, so you would have to allocate the ap 1 hits to your unit, then allocate the ap5 hits to your unit in the above case.

It makes sense though. If you were in the army, you would want to kill the person first before you move to the next so they don't do more damage.

I have no idea how you're picturing how this works, but you're doing it wrong. Unless you think orks always ride in a neat line abreast,most of a unit is going to be obscured in the cloud behind the lead bikes.

Your forgeting that orks arent going in a straight line. Heck, they probally go backwards half the time for the fun of it.
