This list is more for fun than anything else as it would most likely struggle quite a bit against certain mech lists, horde lists and anything that is better than it at CC like Genestealers, but it could be a lot of fun to play as it is so mobile and it would certainly look cool.

Well, you do have one thing going for this list; Mobility. You could reliably deep strike everything right into enemy lines, melt their vehicles and then light the occupants on fire with your flamers. If you deploy correctly you could get cover saves from the wreckage and other units, couple that with your FNP and you should be in decent shape. Against hordes, you'll have to team up with the flamers and a heavy assault following that and you should be able to handle just about anything coming at you. The nasty assault units like genestealers and stuff you should just avoid if at all possible.

Yeah, that is true. With descent of Angels it is pretty dang safe to deep strike and you could pop some vehicles.

I think it would just be a really fun army to play, and it would look sweet. Pretty cheap army too (money wise), compared to a mech army.

I think a good player could have success with this, but I don't see it being a consistent tournament winner by any means. You could flame and shoot Stealers but it would take some good positioning.

your math is a little off, I'm assuming you mean infernus pistol instead of combi melta as nobody can take combi weapons in assault squads which means your melta squads are 250 instead of 145, no biggy thought you should know though
