Just looking for thoughts of how you think this would work out or ways to improve on it I am new to guard but it seems like a good amount of fire power and the troops are protected in the flyer to jump out to claim objectives late game.

Welcome to guard. Looking at your list I have to say it will perform rather poorly. Vendettas are arguably the best flyer and tank killer in the game. You don't need 3 hydras as they cannot really effectively kill other units. At 1000pts you won't see many flyers and that is all hydras are good for.

CCS and Vets are BS4, so why not take advantage of this by giving them special weapons? Try 3 plasma or melta. Vendettas aren't great for transporting as you need to slow down to drop off troops. In doing so you don't open your vendettas to being killed easily.

I would look at some other lists in the forum and go over the codex a bit more and you will see what I'm talking about.

Hope that helps

Get rid of stubbers. They are bleh. Vet squads power is in taking 3 special weapons; use that. And only take Melta or Plasma; anything else is wasted on them.

As Skycapt said, vendettas are not for transporting. Get chimeras for those vets, and maybe just run 1 or two Dettas as a tank hunter. Also, get a leman russ variant for HS, your vendetta will have no problem picking things out of the sky.
