Strat: Ok so basically the infiltrating enhanced squads come from the back and the Land Raiders with posessed come in from the front. Chances are the enhanced marines will be getting +1 S and +1 I (83% chance) . Even if I roll a 1 they'll be at +1 S. So they'll be pretty good in cc. The posessed should make it into cc especially if I use the smoke launchers. They'll be throwing out 26 rending S5 attacks on the charge. Going before most guys with the MoS. They should be able to take alot of punishment as well as dish it out with the 5+ invuln. An added bonus is when the LR's get their the enhanced squads will be made fearless with the dirge casters. My only thought is putting some plasma into the enhanced squads.

Thoughts from you guys?

Well, it is weird.... Two lascannon targets and lots of walking guys.

Infiltrating meltaguns is fun. But I would probably rather have Infiltrating Lord with/Chosen all sporting D Speed than Bile, since I can just buy Furious Charge and always get +1 I/S. And at that point you might as well go Alpha Legion so the Infiltrate is cheaper doesn't preclude other vet skills.
