Been slowly building up my airborne light infantry themed militarum tempestus and have some 1000pts games coming up. What the other players will be playing I am unsure, but I wanted to make a 'all comers' list and see how each element preforms in both matches. List as per below;

Battle Forged, +3CP

Battalion; +5CP
Regiment; militarum tempestus

HQ
tempestus prime, Command Rod, chain-sword, Deep-striking: 45
Warlord; Trait, Faithful servant or Old Grudges
tempestus prime, Bolt Pistol, chain-sword, Deep-striking: 41
Heirloom: Laurels of command

TROOP
5 man scion troop, 2 Hotshot Las-guns, 2 Hotshot Volley Guns, 1 Plasma Pistol and Chain Sword, Deep-striking: 66
5 man scion troop, 2 Hotshot Las-guns, 2 Hotshot Volley Guns, 1 Plasma Pistol and Chain Sword, Deep-striking: 66
5 man scion troop, 2 Hotshot Las-guns, 2 Hotshot Volley Guns, 1 Bolt Pistol and Chain Sword, Deep-striking: 62

ELITE
4 man scion command squad, 4 Plasma Guns, Deep-striking: 88
4 man scion command squad, 4 Plasma Guns, Deep-striking: 88

FLYER
Vulture, 2 Punisher guns and a heavy bolter, On table: 160

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Outrider detachment; +1CP
Regiment; Armageddon

HQ
Company Commander, Las Pistol (proxy using office of the fleet);30

FAST ATTACK
Tauros Venator, 2 Lascannon, On table: 86
Tauros Venator, 2 Lascannon, On table: 86
Armoured Sentinel, Lascannon, On table: 60
Armoured Sentinel, Lascannon, On table: 60

HEAVY SUPPORT
Cyclops demo tank: 60

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Total; 998Pts

Plan is I should have seven on the table and seven in reserve. can't get tabled by boots on the ground unless they destroy two sentenils, two tauros, a cyclops and company commandr which I hope should be a big ask. the reserves will come in two waves; On turns two and three, Each with a tempestus prime, 5 man scion troop & 4 man scion command squad to keep the pressure on and keep mobility. Plus a extra squad for sprinkles.

I have debated dropping the Vulture to a Dakka Valkyrie for more troop mobility,

As i'm going for an airborne light infantry theme I wish to avoid all heavy tanks like leman russ/chimera and similar frames.

Any feedback much appreciated.

Many Thanks in advance.

List under reconsideration due to 'boots on the ground', as this list could be tabled turn one by Killing the two Tauros Venators.
