Company Command Squad
- Creed
- 4 x Lasgunners
- Astropath

Lord Commissar
- Power Sword

Infantry Platoon
- Command Squad with 4 x Flamers
- 5 x Infantry Squads (no upgrades)
- Special Weapons Squad w/3 x Flamers

Hardened Veterans
- 3 x Meltas

Psyker Battle Squad
- 8 x Psykers

3 x Vendettas

2 x Manticores

Dark Angels Librarian
- Power Field Generator
- Divination
- Force Axe

Dark Angels Scouts
- 10 x Sniper Scouts w/Cloaks

Dark Angels Scouts
- 5 x Sniper Scouts w/Cloaks

Alright, thoughts behind this list:

- Blob the infantry platoon and use Creed to give them Scout. Either deploy them at the edge of the DZ or Outflank.
- Attach Lord Commissar to the blob to give them Ld 10, Stubborn and Summary Execution.
- Attach Librarian to blob squad to give the entire unit a 4+ Invuln (power field generator), as well as re-rolls to hit (Divination) and maybe some Counter-attack and full-BS Snapshots (Divination)
- Creed can give the blob squad First Rank FIRE! Second Rank FIRE! from 24" away
- Load the platoon command, special weapons squad and melta vets into the vendettas for all sorts of maneuverable chaos
- Infiltrate the sniper scouts to set up good firing angles
- Snipers to plink wounds off of MC's (Riptides, Wraithknights, etc.)
- PBS to drop leadership for Pinning units in place
- Manticores. . .because F my opponent, that's why!
- Total of seven or eight scoring units, +1 to Reserve rolls to get the Vendettas/outflanking blob on the table
- Get the Vendettas within 3" of the Librarian the turn they come on, and THEY get a 4+ invuln

if your going to ally in DA also you need to have something else you want to add to your list besides an invulnerable save.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
with looking at your list I would run something similar as ...

CCS - drop creed & the astropath ... with 6th edition reserve rolls the astropath isn't really needed imo.

PCS
Infantry Platoon - 50 man blob (power axes and flamers for melee blob, plasma guns and autocannons / lascannons for ranged)
veterans - x3 meltas, demo charge
veterans - x3 meltas, demo charge
veterans - x3 meltas, demo charge

3 vendettas

azreal - attached to the 50 man blob
tactical squad - plasma gun, missile launcher (maybe flakk)
tactical squad - plasma gun, missile launcher (maybe flakk)

ADL with Quad (mostly for a cover save for a ranged blob ... but having static AA or the quad gun firing would work well with this).

As far as the Scouts, I could always drop them to five (since they're cheaper than tac marines), drop the second unit and drop the PBS, but I was thinking snipers would be great against monstrous creatures, the scouts are higher toughness and leadership than ratlings, have the same save in cover and are a scoring unit. Plus they can combat squad in an objective mission or stay in a unit of ten for a kill points mission.

EDIT - By "I had considered that", I meant Azrael, not your entire list of suggestions.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/552433/6052730.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/552433/6052730.page GMT
