I call them the dead because I am modeling my drop troopers like Skeletal guards men coming out of the ground.  It's a pure drop troopers list.  Doctrines so far arerop Troopers, Vets, and SWS.  I'll probally tack on Close Order Drill, If I don't find 2 more docs that suit my list better.
Here's my list for a competitive I.G.list.

---Command Platoon--
JO w/  Storm Bolter 74
    Guards have motar, Grenade Lancher, and company standard

2x  Special Weaps squads, 80x2 = 160
    6 guards 3meltas

3 Las Sentinels  235
    3hks and 2 Imp. Comms

--3x Infantry Platoons--- Total for all Platoons 636
JO w/ Plas Pistol 90
    4 guards w/ Plas Gun

2x guard squads (one squad of the 6 has a flamer) (126)/120

---Elites----
3x Vets w/ 3 Meltas 75x3 = 225
---fast Attack---

2x 2 Hvy Flamer Sents 100 x2 = 200
     1 with imp. Comms

3 Auto Cannon Sents 220
   hks and 2 Imp Comms.

The tactic is simple nothing starts on the board.  Bring everything in possible, hopefully bottom of turn 2, and have a solid first strike.  The hope is that I can take out about 1/2 of the opponent's units before the fight begins.  I want this to end up being a competitive list if I can.  So, I come here to ask you all for help.  Please pitch in your 2 cents about this list.  The weaknesses you see and how to compensate for them would be great.  Thanks everyone for reading.
