Even with the Titans, I don't think your Mech Infantry has enough fire support ...  But I like the infantry with tranports and air support.

I have found that a Thunderhawk loaded down with a det of Assault Marines and Devastators (especially when you have a Chaplain with the Assaults and a Librarian with the Devs) to be a lethal weapon. You can easily smash almost any formation you land in front of. 8 3+ attacks, plus 2 MW 3+ attacks, plus 2 4+ from the Thawk will cause enough casualties that you can break our even out and out destroy the right unit. Great for Break Their Spirit.

And don't be so quick to dis the Hunters. I have shot down Thawks and had my Thawks shot down by Hunters. Not to mention their 60cm 4+ AT shot. They have their place, the best is with your Whirlwinds where they rarely get suppressed.

Hope that helps.

Not a fan of hunters personally. Yeah maybe with a Whirlwind formation but the fact that most of my marines are always on the move makes them a bit out of place for my army. Don't encounter to many aircaft myself but my opponents are thinking of taking some to deal with my thunderhawks. So probably change my opinion in a few months.  :p As for the hunter's AT ability, I'd rather take preds or more troops.
