So I've got a local tournament coming up and we're allowed to use Strongholds and the datasheets. Having heard that, the first thing that came to mind is I can use my giant space cannon! No allies, no Forgeworld, and the Knights haven't been out long enough according to our local rules. So here's what I've got. Criticism welcome, obviously.

Chapter Tactics: Imperial Fist
HQ:
Chapter Master
Equipment: Artificer Armor, PW, Shield of the Eternal

Troops:
1.10 man Tactical Squad w/ Vet.
Equipment: Grav-gun, Multi-Melta, Rhino

2.10 man Tactical Squad w/ Vet.
Equipment: Grav-gun, Multi-Melta, Rhino

Fast Attack:
1. Storm Talon with Skyhammer Missiles
2. Storm Talon with Skyhammer Missiles

Heavy Support:
4 Centurions with grav-amps

Fortification:
Macro-Cannon Aquila Strongpoint

The tac squads should be hiding for most of the game or finishing off lighter units. The HQ will stick with the centurions who are hanging out on the battlements of the Aquila and the storm talons should make general nuisances of themselves. Frankly, I'm hoping for the D cannon to do most of the real work.
