Destroyer Company Rite(s) of War?

[Astartes Consul]

So there isn't (yet) a dedicated RoW for a Destroyer Company. While I'm assuming that Book 9 will at least have something like this for Dark Angels, and the wording of the Angels Tears entry on Book 8 suggests room has been left for a generic RoW that allows Destroyers as troops, I'm interested in building a small Destroyer themed force at some point.

 

So, what are people's thoughts on the RoW that might work for this? My initial thoughts would be Pride of the Legion (Veterans with lots of special weapons, painted in Destroyer colours as Troops) or maybe Orbital Assault?

You dont need much RoWs for this.

Just use Assault Squads as troops, they come close to Destroyers in equipment.

See, I always thought that Destroyers should have some sort of role you select when you choose them based on the Nuclear, Chemical and Biological (NCB) triad. So, for example, you choose Nuclear and you get Rad Grenades, Rad Missiles and depleted bolt rounds that make them something like Banestrike rounds. Chemical gives you access to Phosphex Bombs and phosphex flamers. Finally, biological will give you access to some sort of horrific Virus munitions. Virus Grenades, poisoned weapons, maybe something like the Dark Angels molecular acid rounds and the like. 

 

This could be done for the rite of war itself, in addition to making Destroyers troops, you should have to designate a destroyer unit with one of the roles listed above. In addition, other units could get access to phosphex rounds and the like. As for restrictions, I'd say it's a limit on elites. You wouldn't put your best units in with a force whose whole role is to be disposable and to salt the earth, irradiate it, burn it, etc

Mournival Rules have a Destroyer Company, but they're unofficial (not from FW) but a lot of groups use them so check that out maybe

[Charlo]

Death Guard with the Reaping gets access to massed Rad Grenades so thats probably a start.

 

The same with Blackshields Outlanders!

[Cadmus Tyro]

Blackshield marauders can dual wield bolt pistols as well.

Just run the standard detachment

Praetor
Siege Breaker consul (unlocks Phosphex for artillery

Assalut squads as troops

Destroyers 

Quad launchers with phosphex
Achillies LR (which is currently oop) Phosphex cannister shells

Legion Medusa's with Phosphex shells

Of course this amount of phosphex will label you as "that guy"...
