Ideally it will work out as Justerians and Reavers come in first turn and possibly fire out of their drop pods thus making use of the Row rule where you can re roll hit rolls of 1 first turn with possibly BS 5 if in range due to Legion rules. The rest of the army tries to catch up to them to provide support. 2nd turn the Dreadnought drop pods in and either stays in or shoots out of the pod, the Reavers and Justerians tie in 2 squads into combat. 3rd turn Assault Squad catches up and then ties themselves into combat thus increasing chance of Merciless Killer and the Dreadnought comes out of the drop pod to hunt down vehicles and Veterans provide fire support and won't easily break during shooting if they do become a target (Maloghurst) . Hopefully that will work

Thanks for pointing that out, I was more thinking about the banner conferring fearless to the squad when I placed Maloghurst in the reavers (incase of Night Lords and other  enemy melee units joining the battle ), so anyway I moved Maloghurst to the Veterans and upped the reaver squad by 1.
