Elysian Drop Troops Models

An Elysian Veteran Squad is a unit that contains 10 models. It can contain 1 weapons team model instead of 2 other models (Power Rating +1). It is equipped with.

As Elysian Drop Troops appears it will have no future support, I believe it's appropriate in a /tg/ factions to bring it up to the line with other factions.Input from the Discussion page would be appreciated.

My Idea is to shift Elysian to better fit a CC Deapstrikers for the guard as Stormtrooper fit the shooting roll better

Long Range ground scanner: This thing is weird. Taken in your CCS for 30 pts you get single guardsman model, which can fuck up enemy infiltrators on a 4+ Or grant one of your units rerolls to hit on non-ordinance guns once per turn, on a 4+, within '12 (or unlimited if both units carry a vox). Stick into a fully upgraded Valk/Vendetta for flying Pask. You can take 4 of these total, so if you highly invest and camp in the back of your board they can actually be of good use. Make sure to bring Vox's on all of your units so you get unlimited range to utilize them.
