Hello everyone, now that I have my copy of the Militarium Tempestus Codex I now have the means to build the second part of my 4000pts. of Elysian Drop Troops. That being said I am planning on running this style of army from an "Airborne Standpoint" and less from an "Air Cavalry" standpoint as I already have an Air Cavalry army with my Elysian Drop troops which I think can be run better then with this Codex. So please don't mention the Air Cavalry Formation from the book as I can already run that with my FW Elysian list if I wanted to. I will be utilizing the following conversion for my Imperial Knights as this will make them look much more capable of being "Air Dropped" into a warzone to fit the fluff, just with the appropriate weapons: http://www.spikeybitsblog.com/2012/06/how-to-stormtalon-assault-walker.html. I have tried to make this list as competitive and as close to the fluff as possible and this is my first attempt at this list so please, any and all thoughts, comments and Ideas are more then welcome and Encouraged, thanks for posting guys!

Assuming everything arrives on turn 2, that would wreck face. Then that tank you failed to kill would wreck your face!

Seems like a splash and done kind of thing but would be incredibly fun to play.
