And we get a cool Stratagem that goes with it. Awesome!
This makes for a very fluffy Kamikaze Troopers detachment! So I was thinking that I could build an Ordo Xenos strike force with my Kamikaze Troopers and Deathwatch, and they will look something like this:
Deathwatch Company
Watch Master
Primaris Watch Captain
Veterans with storm bolters (Sergeant with stormshield)
Veterans with 4 Deathwatch frag cannons (Sergeant with xenophase blade and stormshield)
10 Intercessors with bolt rifles and 2 auxiliary grenade launchers (Sergeant with power sword)
Corvus Blackstar with twin lascannon, hurricane bolter, Blackstar rocket launchers and auspex array
Relic Leviathan Dreadnought with 2 grav-flux bombards
Contemptor Mortis Dreadnought with 2 twin lascannons
Kamikaze Tempestus Drop Force
Tempestor Prime with Tempestus Command Rod
Tempestor Prime with Tempestus Command Rod
Tempestus command squad with 4 plasma guns
Tempestus command squad with 4 plasma guns
Tempestus squad of 5 with 2 plasma guns
Tempestus squad of 5 with 2 plasma guns
Tempestus squad of 5 with 2 plasma guns
Valkyrie with lascannon, multiple rocket pods and heavy bolters
That looks awesome! YAY! I'll go with this then! This makes for a very fluffy Ordo Xenos list! My only wish is to include an Inquisitor, but I guess it's fine. I can pretend that one of the Tempestors Prime is an Inquisitor, which makes sense, since Inquisitors have a retinue of Stormtrooper bodyguards and there's no reason why an Inquisitor wouldn't be able to order his Stormtrooper bodyguards about. Then I can use the Cypra Mundi Null-Emitter as an exotic item that the Inquisitor carries, to make him more Inquisitor-y! YAY!
I can't wait to try this out!
According to 1d4chan, we get a second Stratagem called Aerial Fire Support, where a Militarum Temepstus Drop Force Valkyrie fires overwatch for any Tempestus Drop Force infantry unit within 6" of it that gets charged. And your Valkyrie hits on 4+ on overwatch regardless of modifiers! Awesome!
