The idea is to run the 2 Iron Hand chapter masters with the RW bike command and libby for a super squad. I used the DA bike command because it allows the FnP command squad without having to downgrade one of the Iron Hand hqs to a Captain and it also give access to the RW grenade launcher and cheap libby with Divination. I think this squad is pretty indestructible and can do what I always wanted to do in this edition: get there intact and get stuck in. Most armies get one shooting phase. A full Tau battleline makes only a few wound dent which can easily be healed with the “It will not die”
The rest of the IH stuff just gives durable answers to stuff like flyers or other T5 super units(of which I am sure there will be many more) as well as making use of the IH “It will not die” on all vehicles and the boosted Techmarine ability.
The army IS troop lite, but they should be able to be protected with the vehicles and reserves to make late game grabs.
