I had the idea for this, which is better with the flyer rules. How do you think it would work? I don't have a lot of diversity in it yet, since I'm just putting out the basic version before working out what war gear and weapons everyone should use.

As a discussion grows in length, the probability of a comparison to Matt Ward or Gray Knights approaches one.

The problem here is that you are going to have to start half of your infantry units on the table because the vendetta is not a dedicated transport.
Another problem is fitting all those vendettas on the table.

Get over Vendettas. They are a great unit; but not game-winning. Take some diversity.
And jy2, correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the book states that any transport and it's contents are ignored if they mandate reserves. Contents here including the vets.
That said, this is still an impossible list because if, at the end of any game turn, your army has zero models on the table, you automatically lose. (p122 I believe).
Take something that can hold out for a turn, and then blast face with flyers. Also put a point value in the title; helps everyone here.

Even if they were a dedicated transport, the rule would still apply.

Neither of you are right, sorry. Any flyer and it's transported units are ignored for the sake of calculating the amount of forces you need to start with on the board.

You're wrong as well.
Any units that HAVE to start in reserves do not count towards models on the table.
The infantry units inside are not required to start off board and are not in a dedicated transport, therefore 50% rounded up must start on the board.

My mistake; I'm used to flyers running as dedicated transports.

You can have flyers hover for the first turn.
