I feel like this list is lacking because I dont know what to do with the priest since I cannot attach him to the SG, and putting him with the DC seems redundant. I have another Priest I can use too, but I don't know how to create an effective formation that would utilize the Death Company and the Sanguinary Guard. I need more elite slots...
I appreciate all C&C, as I am a former Chaos player and know almost nothing about all your high speed Loyalist Decurions and Detachments.

If you have that many troops, I'd use a CAD. The HQ problem is, well, a problem. I feel like maybe a generic assault squad would be good if you are going BSF.

So I tinkered with some various formations and think I came up with a good fit.

Well, the upgrades I have are the:
-Powerfists on the Sanguinary Guard (10 points instead of 25 per)
-Powerfists on the Death Company Squads,
-Melta Guns in the Tac squads,
-Combi-Meltas in the Tac squads
-Melta Bombs on the Priests
-Jump Packs on the Priests and Death Company
Maybe if I dropped the Bombs on the Priests and one of the fists on a Death Company squad? I suppose the DC Squad that's going to house Dante could do without an additional melee threat. I'm hesitant to take away the bombs from the priests bcause I want them to have a legitimate melee threat. But I suppose that's outweighed by getting the Dread as close as possible to his targets.

Is there a reason you're not using the Golden Host formation? You have the units already. If it is just the priests, why not have them join after deepstrike?
