So I've had some trouble with enemy psykers and counter assaults so I thought I'd try the Deathwatch as an ally. I regularly play against eldar, thousand sons, necrons, and nids. Three out of the four usually have at least one pesky psyker. Assassins just don't cut the mustard. I've been toying with a GK brother captain and termie squad for a while but they seem to under-perform.

My Guard list is light on infantry and heavy on armor. My general rule is: "Tanks kill infantry, Infantry kill tanks" however deathwatch, vets, and special weapons also kill infantry.
