How can you use Jump Marines effectively?

I don't know, I can certainly see the usefulness of Assault Marines in that situation, as I would also run Vanguard in the same way.

 

The point of both of these options is to be the point unit, the first into enemy fire, and as the name indicates, Vanguard really excel at it.

 

In a large-scale drop pod assault, something is always going to be the enemies primary target, and if you can dictate the enemies choice of targets by presenting a clear threat, you have gained an advantage.
