I guess we all know the bolter disiplinen bomb. Have both lethal hits and sustained hits. Combine stratagems to get ap+1 and ignore cover. Do it with aggressors who get ap+1 vs closest target. They have hands guns and blast guns. Just force a million AP2 saves.
Anyway, the aggressors need a big investment with the landraider. Instead I have started doing it on a 10 man unit of heavy interscessors. That have a great range (30) are AP1 innate and are both heavy and assault. I also do not need the landraider and they are more bodies.
How competitive are they? They do not have the damage output of the aggressors. But they do have some redeeming qualities. More wounds, can shoot longer, better armour on objectives. The longer range means they are easier to keep out of trouble.
