Taking another crack at Deathwatch. I'll gain the benefits of BSSF and saving some points on drop pods.

So, the initial plan had been to have the shooty Vets in pods, now I'll have them Deep striking as per the BSSF rules. The Venerable Dreads can't DS so they get to keep their pods with Locator beacons to bring in the others. Artemis is in the Rip n tear squad in the Blackstar. The Acolyte squads are for holding down objectives since that really isn't what Deathwatch does, Jokaero to upgrade their weapons and Psykers for Deny the Witch and some cheap psychic powers. I wanted the Inquisitor for the Servo Skulls and that lovely Conversion Beamer for holding down the back field. Damn I just wish Deathwatch had Techmarines.
