Basically i secure points using the Melta- vets in Vendettas, then supported by vendettas, Heavy Armour being taken out by the vendettas , Demolisher pushing/ supporting where needed, Manticore Taking out groups of heavily packed or armoured infantry, and Ratlings keeping them pinned....... All while those little Regulars charge across the board

So do you guys think it will work ? do you think something should be replaced with something else? or do you think it will fail miserably?

Yikes. I hope Ailaros sees this. No offense, but I don't know where to start. Well, start with losing the rough-riders and configuring the list so we know what is blobbed with what, and find points for a CCS. It's our best HQ, and orders are crazy good. You also only need 1 vox per blob, so if you ARE blobbing those IS's, the rest are wasted.

Fixed it

any voxes are usually a waste especially concidering
1. you didnt even put one in the CCS which would need it the most
2. if you lost all the voxes in your list that frees up 40pts

with that 40pts you could give your vets a 3rd plasma gun and then give your CCS some better weapons too.

and unless you are going to find a way to take more chimeras i would dump them entirely since you dont have enough armor saturation. try dumping the chimeras, give the vets melta, and put them in the vendettas then take that 170 pts freed up by that to give your CCS better weapon upgrades and your PIS better special weapons especially the grenade launchers.

Thanks general ian i was thinking about the vendettas transport potential for a while and just decicided i was going to wait and see if someone else worried about it too.... i used it to make my vets and company command squad a little less squishy, and also replaced the grenade launchers with plasmas and Meltas.... by the way i added up all the points and it says im 180 points under...... can someone double check that for me cause i think i did it wrong

when i did the math it was 1945 so you are 65 points down.
i would suggest you also put a lascannon on your demolisher and downgrade the vanquisher to a standard russ and put a hull lascannon on that too, and im not saying sponsons are bad but i'm sure you can find better uses for them or take better sponson weapons

you may also consider giving your company commander a fist and turning that heavy flamer into 2 meltas or something

Thanks for the calculation and i totally forgot about the commander! but i dont feel that changing the vanquisher is a good idea... it is the best penetrating weapon i have ( ignoring vendettas) cause it can crack open armour with that 2 dice pen roll and i tend to have horrible luck.. i am also thinking of fielding Knight commander pask with the vanquisher russ... is there a good reason for the swap that i dont know about?

you are worried that with 10 meltaguns, 2 meltabombs, 6 twin linked lascannons, a demolisher cannon, and a manticore that getting rid of 1 vanquisher is going to be that much of a problem?

it was 4 melta guns and 6 twinlinked las cannons but i see ur point....

by the way i unblobed cause of the new cover and pinpoint rules.....

Anybody else got an opinion?

The units you got are pretty good, but I would recommend dropping some of the upgrades from your CCS & PCS, like the medi pack (It can be useful but its allot of points), heavy flamer and the platoon standards (Keep the regimental standard). With those free points you could get a couple autocannons or another infantry squad, but really its all your choice.

hmmm i might do that do you guys think autocannons would be worth it?

Autocannons are the best all around heavy weapon, with two shots they have a good chance to hit, and they are great for glancing to death any vehicles. In my list I run a mix of autocannons and lascannons. Together they can deal with almost all tanks/transports.

Nice now i got autocannons... yay glancing... damn how many points am i at now?

2020. If this for tournaments you will have to lose 20pts but if its just for fun this list should work just fine

thanks guys!
