Put the 5-men squads up front to ensure when charged they crumble (and why they have no meltas). with some in reserve on the paratroop side, LOS shouldn't be an issue. Space em out so only one squad is assaulted and when it crumbles in their turn, you can blast em on your turn (since no consolodating into units). I'm a little concerned with vehicles so it may need some tweeking with krak grenades or more melta. The range problem could be solved with the drop troops. May even look at a demo charge unit popping in but that's 35 pts (i think) that could be 6 flashlights.

Anyone worried about painting could just buy 2 cans of green spray paint and play the old "green army man" army. (unless you played the tan side)

Glad to see some folks actually took this recommendation seriously, as it was intended, and I didn't get flamed for the name of the army concept. Thanks
