Ordo Xenos Inquisitor (34pts) [Bolt Pistol, Carapace Armour, Chainsword, 3x Servo Skulls]
For this list, I am using the inquisitor just for the servo skulls for the drop pods and assault squads to jump in close enough to charge/shoot whatever they need to while giving the pods and easier chance at hitting the objectives. The battle company, I have 8 rhinos/razors that I can use but went with 7 and 1 pod for the tactical squads (giving me 3 pods turn 1 if I go first or 1 pod if I want to null deploy and reserve for turn 2 if I really have to).
Only had enough points to have 3 of the 5 razorbacks upgraded for assault cannons, and I picked this instead of TLLC or Las/Plas as this can give me more shots and has rending as well.
I also chose the landspeeder with 1 heavy flamer for one of my assault choices instead of an attack bike as this would only let the bike go with bolters instead of 1 shot with a multi-melta.
