Cadian Castellan deploys with one of the Kasrkin Squads.

 

Scions are too expensive, but I want to deep strike.

 

I want a solid counter-charge contingent. Ogryns and Bullgryns do this. I like them both for different reasons. Bullgryns should be obvious. The Ogryns are the cost of two heavy weapons teams, but at ranges under 9" actually shoot as if they were 4 HB heavy weapons teams, and can get another -1 to AP. Then charge something to finish it or tar pit it. On paper at least, they are a remarkably effective firepower unit for relative low cost and can tank damage.
