They did teleport in 40k, don't know about third edition though, I agree
this would make them very aggressive as it should be.

Actualy the break point would be ten out of twelve, suitably high but then
again its 10VP's at stake!

Absolutely, at the very least, lets see if other like it.

We should keep the current card and composition and add if you desire to
teleport you lose the raiders, sorta like what happens with the drop pods,
you pay for the added manueverability, so it would be 1000 points to use
with land raiders or to be teleported all other stats and cost remain the
same.
