For me 40k is all about speed, board control and durability.
It's why the blob is so good, but luck at wraithwing as an example of how much fast durable combat units can do. Could you build a list around that concept of 2 characters outfront taking most of the punishment with a 2+/4+ save backed up my msu scoring units? I think you can, with 2 characters with a jump pack and 2+ save, the 30 fnp assault marines. Then you need fire power, so dev squads, storm ravens, press, dreads / anything that can bring the pain at range will do well.
