I've been using:
7 Warriors with Storm Bolters
3 Warriors with Storm Bolters and Plasma Guns
2 Lasertangs
They get the job done.

"'players must agree how they are going to select their armies, and if any restrictions apply to the number and type of models they can use."
This is an actual rule in the actual rulebook. Quit whining about how you can imagine someone's army touching you in a bad place and play by the actual rules.

When people ask, "What's the point in understanding everything?" they've just disqualified themselves from using questions and should disappear in a puff of paradox. But they don't understand and just continue existing, which are also their only two strategies for life. |

Lord Commander in a Plush Chair

3 PA Warriors w/Plasma
2 jokero
4 Crusaders
All mounted in a Chimera.
The Crusaders are just there in case the Chimera gets popped.

This is my Rulebook. There are many Like it, but this one is mine. Without me, my rulebook is useless. Without my rulebook, I am useless.
Stop looking for buzz words and start reading the whole sentences.

look at my signature.

"Best" is a VERY subjective term.
BEST at killing armored infantry in combat? Cultists
BEST at killing Tanks/hordes in combat? Arcos
BEST at shooting Land Raiders? Acolytes with meltaguns
BEST at shooting light tanks at 48"? Jokaero
BEST at not taking damage? Crusaders
questions like this a just so vague that they are kinda pointless. This is even more true when it comes to a unit like henchmen that can be build in a TON of different ways.
====
As a side note, Why Jokaero and Plasma? The plasma guns do not gain much from either the extra range or rending. The armor helps some I guess for gets hot and the INV save buff is okay I guess.
My Jokaero unit is
2 Jokaero
3 Melta guns
5 Storm Bolters
I would much rather have a Jokaaro and Meltaguns. Move 12", Disembark 2", 12" Melta range gives you a 26" Melta Threat range. Rending is good for the Heavy Flamers and Storm Bolters. armor and 5++ upgrade is decent but not my favorite. You can shoot at range, shoot close up and can target vehicles and infantry depending on the upgrades you get.
