Hi.

So with the new Death Watch coming out, it is possible to make a really cheap army from the Betrayal box.
Would an army like this be viable. It will be very small but hard hitting.

CAD Ultra Marines
Librarian: Lvl 90.p

5x Tactical Marines: Drop Pod, Flamer 105.p

5x Tactical Marines: Drop Pod, Flamer 105.p

3x Devestator Centurions: Grav Cannons 240.p

Drop Pod 35.p

575.p

CAD Death Watch

Librarian: Lvl 2 90.p

10x Veterans: 2x Frag Cannons, Melta Gun, Melta Bombs, Drop Pod 340.p

10x Veterans: 2x Frag Cannons, Melta Gun Drop Pod 335.p

5x Assault Terminarors: Thunderhammer, Storm Shield 225.p

Corvus Blackstar: Reroll Jink upgrade 185.p

1175.p

1750.p total.

The Idea is to have 20 Deathwatch Veterans and 3 Grav Centurions with Devestator Doctrine dropping in turn 1 to kill as much as possible, hopefully surviving the retaliation. After, I have a Big Betastrike with the Corvus Blackstar and the Assault Terminators who will join it.
The librarians will join in the Centurions and the Corvus.

Any ideas?
