The "Plan" as it were, is to ram the LRC and dreads and vindicators as fast as I can down the middle, damn the rest of the consequences! Any thoughts?

Is there any reason why you would take the DC Dreads over Furiosos? You have open Elites slots, and the Furioso is pretty obviously superior to the DC Dread due to AV13 and the ability to control what it does.

Either way, I'd probably not Pod the Furioso, since it will come down unsupported. The 35 points could be better used on EA for the LRC and Dozer Blades for the Vindicators.

I normally play Khorne Zilla, so I'm used to alot of Crazy Dreads running around. The DC Dreads have the following pro's that I like:

- WS5, so they still hit on 3's the majority of the time.
- +1 attack over Furioso's, which works well for ensuring extra hits with Blood Talons
- Ignore Crew Shaken/Crew Stunned, this is pretty big.
- Fleet, so they can cover quite a bit of ground and get the assaults faster. (This is super awesome).

The reason I want to pod the furioso is because Drop Pods are super safe, and careful placement will allow the furioso to get a decent melta shot on something as it comes in on the first turn. Vanilla marines have been doing this with Multimelta dreads and Ironclads with meltaguns for a while now, and I think it's just neat.
