In terms of a deep strike army, the main assault comes from your platoons, these arrive en mass and really are the opnly things large enough to hold groud. Odds and sods are everything else, specifically:
Command HQ,
Special weapons squads
Heavy weapons squads/platoons (if you must)
sentinals (personnaly I like using for anti tank so las cannon and HKs, although catchan pattern is attractive, I worry that the scatter dice will elave them out of range)
storm troopers
Veterans
Vultures
Aircraft (marauders, lightenings, thunderbolts)
even tarantulas
most other stuff just doesnt work in an entirely drop troop army
I would say again though:
Valkyries - these are fluffy as hell and a down right liability, if you want a fluffy army and you got the pennies, then take them, if you want to win, dont
