I'm making a series of lists that are the 'least' Ultramarines in flavor (mostly to be goofy).

Normally I wouldn't use a Telepathy Librarian, but I think a pure jetbike list has a LOT of weaknesses, and lacks the tools to crack Heavy weapons squads or big melee deathstars.

The Librarian can support the Plasma bikers, or attach to the big command squad.

The Praetor has Battle Hardened, so he is able to tank S8-9 hits for the squad to help them not get blown off the table right away.

Javelins are pretty solid tank hunters, and when paired with the Proteus can even do a half decent job of hunting Dreads.

The Apothecaries can join whichever Sky-hunters the situation calls for. The 4 squads are identical, save for 2 of them having power fists on sergeants.

In theory 2 of them stay back and score while the other two can move forward to be the bulk of my mid field push. It's never going to be a crushing victory IMO, but its a fun army to work towards. All I need is 7 more boxes of Jetbikes....

 

Alternatively... I could drop the Apothecaries and Outriders to add a Primus Medicae and upgrade the Command Squad and all the characters to Jetbikes.  Thematically an all Grav list sounds very cool, though of dubious practical value.
