dam i knew i shouldve put the meltas on the speeders. however!
1-the landspeeders will be able to dart around the table extremely well. as skimmers ignore difficult terrain, they can get moving and pick apart the tac squads.

both armies are heavy into infantry. with the heavy cover, the vindicators arent going to be make or break units. large blast is going to hit an entire combat squad, but with 4+ cover saves its not going to be as deadly as they would in open ground.

in this sort of game i would establish firebases in the top floors of all buildings that i could capture. rocket teams on third floors would be able to see almost everything, and thus pick apart the vindies anyway. in this sort of arena, rear/side shots are going to be aplenty. even the plasma cannons could hurt side armour of 11!
the plasma cannon teams would be on the second floors, also shooting across that main thoroughfare in the middle. the terminators and chaplain squad arent going to be back up: now, theyre up close an personal, getting in there and cleaning out the buildings. omg i woud LOVE to play this on an actual table. this would be such a good game! may the best man win...
