And "Death From Above" applies to this list how? You've got one Deep Strike capable unit and 3 Ordnance Barrage shots. Now if you had way more DS, more Barrages and Mortars for the blob squad I'd get it, but as it stands... Not so much.:D

Otherwise I like the list, except for having the lascannons in the blob. If you go AT you are wasting 45-90 lasgun shots. Taking that much firepower out of play just to, probably, kill a single armored vehicle seems wasteful. Also, why have Heavy Bolters in the squads instead of something you can shoot on the move or from inside the Chimera? Though I'll admit that's more of a tactics question than suggesting a change question.

I see your point!
Mortars in the blob squad.

Heavy bolters with chimeras gives 2 h. bolters and 1 multilaser when standing still. On the move 1 h.bolter/Multilaser.
Pintle h.stubbers instead of h.bolters, maybe.

Changes:
Blob
50 Guards 315p (-75p)
5 mortars, vox
commissar

-2 h.bolters (chimera squads)
-20p

- plasmapistol Stormtrooper squad -10p

105p left, extra stormtrooper squad:
5 Stormtroopers
2 meltaguns
airbourne assault

Frankly Stormtroopers are guys that i just leave at home, for 16 points a guy they really are nothing that special, it would be much smarter to get some veterans with three melta guns a powerfist, all of that is merely 115pts. put that unit in a valkyrie and then it will truly be death from above.
