Getting back into 40K for the first time in 6th Edition. CCS and Melta Vets for getting up close, Vendettas for long range anti tank and Griffons for any Long Fangs/Devastators/Lootas.

Plasma guns are often better than melta in this edition. I suggest you get some on 2 of the veteran units and the command squad - that's 70 points, and I think the increase in firepower is probably worth a griffon. Certainly a GL-wielding CCS isn't going to do much good.
