Looks fairly solid to me. You may find that you struggle against heavy gun line armies, but you should be able to come pretty close to matching Eldar speed, and the drop pods will help distract Tau. Just watch out for melta.

Isn't there a formation that allows you to Assault the turn you deep strike? I don't remember what book it's in, but I'm pretty sure it's usable in 40k. It eats Tau/Eldar, especially if you get first turn.

It's called Angel's Fury Spearhead Strike Force. It's out of White Dwarf 47.

From what I remember, you have to take three Tac squads in Storm Ravens that DS turn 1. Anything that DS within 12" of them doesn't scatter and can charge.

True story. Though I'm pretty sure the Tac squads get TH for free. Don't quote me on that though.

Isn't there a special rule that let's them come in turn one automatically?

Sounds like a great game Which (IMO) makes the list a success.
