--------------------
Big killy! Intercessors make objectives sticky and have plenty of anti-chaff firepower.
Indomitors provide some CHUNKY killing power.
Terminators (each lead by an Ancient) help take objectives with good melee.
Infiltrators do their annoying thing to help early game.

Detachment is Firestorm Assault Force. Partially because it's good, partially because I like the thought of S8 Heavy Bolt Rifles.

I'm not horribly familiar with Firestorm. Definitely an interesting way of going about DW. I'm sure there's some bad matchups but its probably worth seeing how effectively your opponent can down 82 marines.

One thought is if you wanted you could drop Infiltrators to Incursors and take the extra 20 points from each along with 2 units of Intercessors to make them into Fortis KTs. I'm not sure that vibes with Firestorm though, just a thought.

Fortis don't get 4 shots per guy, nor Sticky Objectives.

Not arguing that. You just get Plasma and Missiles instead. Not sure if 6 units of sticky is really needed, but if it works, it works. More suggestions of what you CAN do than should, as your definitely going for a different style to lean on the Indomitors.

That's fair. This is a theory-crafted list anyway.

Sticky Objectives isn't really needed en-masse, agreed, but chaff-clearing is nice. Something the big hammer units can't do as well.
