Alright thanks guy well i'd have to gave some background 1st like many of us the 2008 crash really got us hard in the wallet so I have been unable to do any trips to any of the games day as sence GW won't be having games day here in Vegas we have had to cut back and improv. I can up with the idea after looking at Warhammer skrimmsh and wondering why 40k never got a book like this so this is more or less a series of senarios with a set of new rules that anyone who plays 40k can do so I call it 40k on a buget but with still plenty of fun :)

Anyway here's what vanguard is it's not kill teams but a unit that goes ahead of the rest of the army to knock ot any early warning units ex. the u.s. Marines on D-day climing that cliff to take out german guns hours befor the main landing.

How Vanguard works there are 3 types of units HQ,TROOP,and SUPPORT

HQ maybe any type of hq choice in the 40k range or any model in the 40k range you want to use as your HQ you may only have one model as your HQ.

TROOP is any infantry model in the 40k model range on 25/28mm bases you may have up two squads of 10 models in your troop choice but one squad of 10 is best.

SUPPORT note support is NOT heavy support choices but any small or light armor such as walkers,skimmers,or APCs.

Note on rules the game still uses all the normal 5th or 4th edition 40k rules except all HQ get a +3 armor save all TROOP get a +2 armor save.

example army lists we use
Eldar 1X farseer,10x dare advengers 1x warwalker

IG 1x captain,20x guardsmen 1x sentenale

Tyranids 1x broodlord 16x genestealers 1x warrior

Marines 1x sgt. 1x tatical squard of 10 1x landspeeder storm

Orks 1x warboss 20x boyz 1x killakan

If you have any question or would like to see some examples of senarios we have ask beloe or PM me thank you for reading.

Examples of senarios?

I think you have made a very good one with those rangers on D-day, attacking the guns. Go for one like that, attacking a gun position to help and cover the main army.

And maybe a second one: taking of a bridge or teleport portal?

Quick up date I realized I gave are units to high of an armor save I meant to put +4 not +2 for Troop choices.

is the landspeeder storm meant to be able to transport the marines, or is it just there as fire support? as it can only transport scouts. maybe an attack bike or something?

Have yet to try out bikes and the landspeeder can be used to transport marines.
