Does anyone have any good tips or suggestions of the NL legion? Particularly how their Legion tactics combine well with any units?

Their RoW Terror Assault is one of the best legion specific RoWs in the game, even better when you add Kurze. Terror Troops either infiltrating or in drop pods is awesome. Personally I put my drop guys with volkite and infiltrate the hand to hand guys. Raptors also work well here. Having vet squads as your tank hunters in drop pods works well too. The infiltrating guys benefit greatly from the extra possible night fighting. They are a great all round legion but they do excel in close combat especially if you outnumber your opponent, when that happens you never need more the a 5+ to wound something if you can wound it. Chain glaives are wounding wraith knights on a 5+ .

While I disagree that it's one of the best in the game all of his points pretty much ring true. However, a better tank hunting squad would simply be a heavy support or melts support squad in a pod.

True, but neither are available in pods for Terror Assault, only vets, tacs, and terror squads. The only failing I see with it actually which is why I run Orbital assault about 50% of the time. It does however allow you to have non-JP foot sloggers set up on the field which OA does not.

One of the best legion specific RoWs, there are generic ones that are marginally better. I haven't closely looked at the new generics.

Eh, I may be biased but I still think DG are up there with some of the strongest Leigon RoWs in the game so far: Either 1 that slows you down, but gives you the ability to punish enemy units for charging you, AND leaves you the ability to take allies and forticifcations (not to mention the ability to spam HS squads ), or the other that gives you an army wide 5+ cover save, lets you screw with terrain, and makes frag weaponry SO much better (S: 5 is fun )

While I have not played with my new force yet, I really dig the Horror Cult ROW. Night Raptors as Troop choices really appeals to me.
