The battle plan is the following:
Troopss with Lieutenant on the back (With the dread if needed be, otherwise dread on raven).Bikes to reinforce/grab objectives out of sight. Chaplain with assault squad on the front, vets behind. Termis with captain. Everything that can deep strike does so on turn 1.Idea is fluffy list that can play. C&C Welcome.

Hi,
Not sure having 10 man tactical squads with a H.bolter and a plasma is the best use of units. better two have two 5 mans here possibly for extra screening/ movement. Also from a casualty point of view better to lose 5 models than 10 if you get hit with a Reaper/ Kastellen etc.

I think a 10 man assault squad is a risk as well. They arent great as a unit and for a few points more you could use them as vanguards which for a slight point increase have more attacks, weapon options and leadership.

You mention your Lieutenant is going to be sitting back. if that is the case, it might be worth saving those points on the powerfist and just using a powersword/ chainsword.
You might even be able to split one of your 10 man tactical squads and make a 5 man tactical and a 5 man dev squad with an extra heavy weapon wiht some of the points.

Hey,

First,, thanks for the response, for the tactical squads I was thinking on deploy them as 10 to secure first deployment (And Auspex Scan if they try to deep strike me) And then use Tactical flexibility depending on the enemy (I have a decent amount of CP). As for the heavy bolter i was thinking on using the Hellfire rounds as much as posible for mortal wounds, originally both squads had missile launchers.

Assault squads to vets, it´s a fantastic idea, I just ran the numbers and it fits quite well.

The power fists i think i will leave it there for now to have some cqc on the back.

Also i was thinking if an ironclad or a conptemptor will fit better than the venerable since they cost pretty much the same.
