I have thought about dropping some things to make way for a 3rd drop pod to use the Drop Pod Assault to drop my entire Allied Detachment turn 1.

Tactics:

The two Close Combat Crusader squads and the Champ will be in the land raider, the two bolter squads will ride the rhinos, blitz forward to nab any objectives. The LRC will move towards juicy targets and disgorge its compliment to assault anything that can't be unstuck by fire.

The Allied detachment is more or less supposed to kill back table support. IE Riptides, Missilesides, Longstrike, Etc.

Constructive criticism welcome!
