Send in the planes... they dominate E40K. Make sure you send in as many as
you can squeeze in under the points.

Also, if you're not willing to use planes... consider using bikes. I love
em. that awesome speed with the decent A/F valuse lets you gang up on
trooops from behind, and b ythe time they come and get ya, your main forces
(hopefully all in rhinos like me :) will be there mopping up...
