First off, hurray for my first post. I've been a member of Warseer for a long time, but I just recently joined Dakka. This is my first time making a Guard list, although I already play Ravenwing.
So here's the list:
HQ
Command Squad – Senior Officer, Power Weapon, Veteran, Standard Bearer
Commissar - Powerfist
Fire Support Squad - 3x Heavy Bolters
Fire Support Squad - 3x Heavy Bolters
Anti-Tank Support Squad - 3x Lascannons
Anti-Tank Support Squad - 3x Missile Launchers
Troops
Infantry Platoon 1
Command Squad – Junior Officer, Power Weapon, Flamer
10x Guardsmen - Heavy Bolter
10x Guardsmen - Heavy Bolter
Infantry Platoon 2
Command Squad – Junior Officer, 4x Plasma Guns
10x Guardsmen - Heavy Bolter
10x Guardsmen - Missile Launcher
Infantry Platoon 3
Command Squad – Junior Officer, Power Weapon, Flamer
10x Guardsmen - Autocannon
10x Guardsmen - Autocannon
Elites
5x Hardened Vets - 3x Melta Guns
Heavy Support
Heavy Weapons Platoon
Command Squad – Junior Officer, 4x Melta Guns
Fire Support Squad - 3x Autocannons
Basilisk - Indirect Fire
Doctrines: Drop Troops, Heavy Weapon Platoons, Close Order Drill
Total: 1497
Alright, the plan is to pummel the enemy with heavy weapon fire while the Vets and Command Squads with special weapons deep strike to take out tanks and tough infantry. The Command Squads with Power Weapons and Commissar provide CC support and LD bonuses for all of the Guardsmen and Heavy Weapon Squads.
The only problems I see with the army is it is pretty static and doesn't have much mobility. Also, I wasn't sure if I should switch out the Autocannons for Missile Launchers, to give me more anti-tank.
I know this list isn't Tier 1 and probably couldn't beat Mech Eldar or Godzilla Nids, but I'm just wondering if you think it can compete in a tournament. Let me know that you think of the list. Thanks.
