Just like Cadian Kasrkins, we now have Draconian Kamikaze Troopers! YAY! They are back, and they are in black! Or something like that. They will serve as special weapon teams, dropping in on the enemy backlines to capture objectives and eliminate key enemy units and infrastructure. At least that's the plan. For now. There are ways to adjust the lists, such as adding a boltgun for the Tempestor Prime. For the plasma list, I can just swap a Primaris Psyker for a Cadian Company Commander with plasma pistol, add 2 boltguns to both Tempestors Prime and a storm bolter to the Taurox Prime with Taurox gatling cannon.
I'm thinking of getting a Valkyrie for the first list too, but I have no idea what to remove. But if all goes well, then my list with a Valkyrie will probably look like this:

It's doable, I guess, and I already have all the models including the Valkyrie assault carrier. That guy is going to carry my Company Commander and plasma command squads around, drop them on objectives or right within rapid-fire range of the enemy, and then unload everything they have. I might even use Armageddon for these guys for the sweet 18" rapid fire range, but honestly, the Vostroyan Stratagem seems to benefit me more. I wanted to use Elysian, but I was thinking it wouldn't make much sense since their Deep Strike rule renders the Valkyries useless. Until Forge World releases new rules for Elysians, I hardly think I will be using them.
On the other hand, I can use the Valkyrie to drop my heavy flamer and flamers command squads right on top of the enemy, and then charge them (Strength 4 Draconians, woo!)

So this list also works. It is extremely light on infantry - hell, the only infantry are those stuck inside the Valkyrie (with the exception of the Primaris Psykers), but it's designed to allow my Catachan-styled Draconians to fly around in a Valkyrie, drop right in front of an enemy, move (the grav-chute rule allows passengers to move normally after they disembark even though the Valkyrie has moved), use the Burn them out! order, charge with them while the Lord Commissar, Company Commanders and Ministorum Priests all follow behind closely. YAY! There is also the option where I simply ditch the Valkyrie altogether and build a proper Battalion Detachment with lots of infantry, all of whom carry power swords to get the AP -3 (the Sergeants for the infantry squads, at least), gain the buff from the Ministorum Priest for 1 more attack, and have Strength 4. This other list will want to put my infantry into combat as much as possible.
We could turn it into an all-Catachan list with Sergeant Harker providing re-rolls of ones. That means I need to buy a Basilisk. I should be able to convert one of my Cadians into Harker by giving him a heavy bolter instead of a lasgun. It'll work somehow.

Well, we'll see. I have no idea what the future holds.
