Hi All,

this is my thought to a fluffy Iron Hands List, I think it should work ok, but I'm not 100% sure

HQ Captain in Arti Armour with Storm Bolter and Lightening Claw, with Command Squad including Company Banner, Apothecary, Champ, two Vets with Storm Bolters and Power Swords - in Drop Pod

3 x Troops 10 Tac with Vet Serg having Lightening Claw and Storm Bolter, squad have a plasmagun and are in drop pods

2 x Ironclad Dreads with Ironclad Assault Launchers in Drop Pods

Dreadnought with twinlinked las and missile launcher

Dev Squad (%man) with 4 x Missile Launchers inc Flakk missiles

Whirlwind

comes out at 1740pts

please suggest anything that would be more fluffy, thinking of making them an aggressive drop company, utilising cover for the 1st turn and assaulting quickly with most of what I can

You'll want Combi-Weapons over Storm Bolters and will find the Lightning Claws to be mostly rubbish on a model with 1 wound and Initiative 4. I just wouldn't bother so that scarier units can get fed more points (like your Captain).

Flakk missiles are too expensive. 25 points a piece? Spend that 100 points on an ADL with Quad-Gun. It will more reliably strip Hull Points off of things than your Devastators.
