I like the typhoons and Ezekial
Also foot slogging can work for DA, see a good number of deathwing lists.

Dev. squads are expensive and tac. squads are a little pricy for their capabilites. I would choose 2 of the same weapon for the bikes to do a job well, also probably going for plasma guns to keep them out of cc.

I guess you are looking to use Ezekial and tactical squads.
You need transports for the tactical squads. I would use laserbacks or drop pods.

You look for a razorbackspam sort of list taking to account laserbacks and the cool stuff DA can and cannot take.
Ezekial
Squads with laserback, 5 men with melta and maybe a powerweapon or meltabombs.
Annoyingly deathwing fit this approach.
3 typhoons as they are cheap.
3 preds to provide the extra covering fire.

Else the drop pod list. This relies on entering everything second turn onwards - this is probably the safest way to drop pod. Given the ranged capalities inside the DA codex you can keep them guessing.
Ezekial
10 man tactical squads in drop pods
Then some other units in drop pods
Annoyingly deathwing fit this approach. I read the deathwing assault is decided on the first turn, so you can always put them into reserve to come on after turn 2 but then change your mind.
3 typhoons as they are cheap.

Thanks I was considering bringing termies in bigger games but I think i'll have to do deathwing like well everyone else, (was wanting to do company 3) I just don't like cookies cutter lists.
