Moving squadrons of 3 Vendettas while following the zooming rules for pivoting is very difficult. It's only marginally easier when hovering. Make it 3x2 instead of 2x3.

Also, what unit do you intend to have on the board turn 1? Remember that if at the end of any game turn (including turn 1), you have no models on the board, then its an auto loss.

And the fact you need 50% of your force on the table on turn one.
This might be a small criticism, but do the SG need a death mask if Dante is with them? Shouldn't he have it covered?
I'd also advocate using something other than Dante, he's not worth his points IMO now that he attacks at initiative 1 and can be challenged out of the combat by a lowly sergeant.

Yeah, assuming all the IG are in the dettas, either Dante or the SG would have to start on the table, making it very easy for your opponent to table you by the end of turn 1.

Just to add that in the last 40K FAQ it was noted that units that start in a transport "That Must start in reserve do not count towards the 50% rule.
However you do need to start with something on the board or auto loss. Automatically Appended Next Post: LinkXx wrote:Yeah, assuming all the IG are in the dettas, either Dante or the SG would have to start on the table, making it very easy for your opponent to table you by the end of turn 1.
It does say if you go a full game turn you lose not when you are tabled.

Well if he had Dante, the SG or both on the table, he wouldn't lose unless they were dead by the end of turn 1.

Hurr! Ogryn Bone 'Ead!

One thing that jumped out at me was the heavy flamers in the Guard units You have 80 points tied up into 4 H-Flamers and one vet squad that has only the single HF. I would at the minimum down grade a single HF to a regular so you could give the poor vet squad 3 regular flamers. They will do more damage total than a single HF. Or change tehm all to regular flamers drop the death masks and you might end up with enough points for one more entire unit of something
