Hello all,
Was looking at my ultramarines and decided to try and figure out a drop pod list at 1,500 points using 7 pods so that 4 would come in on first turn. At first i was thinking Tigurius and Sterguard Veterans but couldnt come up with a list that would work with both of them in it. I ended up writing to different list as follows one with Tigurius and one with the sternguard. Need help figuring out which is better and and or what i could do to improve them, i have every model from the old codex so if you think somthing else would work better let me know. Any help or critisim is greatly apperciated.

Basic idea was to put the HQ charecter in with the command squad and drop pod in with it and three full ten man squads, one of the other would most likely combat out a 5 man team with a plasma cannon to go sit on a objective with a thunderfire cannon while the rest wait to come in.
