The group I'm in are fine with using Vigilus Detachments in our games, since they were banned for tournament play. We usually only do 500 pt games, and we don't do objectives in those - we only aim to kill the other players units.

I'm running the Acolytes as a 10 man unit to fit inside the Goliath Truck so that I can run one as deployed and the other one in a Cult Ambush. As I understand it, Neophytes aren't as good as Acolytes. My main plan is to run one unit of Acolytes, one truck and the Ridgerunner as deployed and the Iconward, other Acolyte squad and the other truck as Ambush, push up and deep strike in the others, then crash in.
