My question is do you really get it's worth in that one assault. You need to have expensive target for it to be worth all the points it carries.
I also always have a strike cruiser to complete the package. Either its a dev drop pod to soften the target area followed by an air assault, or its a full scale drop and empty LC, or its a planetfalling loaded landing craft (potentially into the same area as a dev drop) to act as a forward deployment base. The dev is optional, the barrage has a similar effect.
So yes the points are a lot but its not a one trick pony. And its fearless

Oh and there is nothing like it for barging infantry out of cover!

Parking a Landing Craft on turn 3 on the opponents Blitz is a nice tactic to contest it and annoy him
As empty one? Cause that kind of reasoning is why we don't allow landing aircraft to contest conditions. The only one rules change that we in here always use.
So you have to have say a single stand survivor of a formation on board to capture teh objective? is that not a bit artificial?
