game plan is to just have the core of the army (tanks, roughriders, 2Xpas/las veteran squads) hold a section of the board/objectives and drive enemy to edges if possible for outflanking units to do thier damage. I think all that plasma and 20 roughriders and pie plates from demoishers/leman russ is enough to keep anything at arms length!

*The rest of army outflanks, demo charge vet squad with meltaguns hunts tanks and/or uses h/flamer demo charge on targets of oportunity

*al'rahem squad goes tank/mc hunting and can use the shoot then move order to get out of charge range if used right

*special weapon squads will take the platoon infantry squad's chimera and zoom around looking for targets of oportunity with 3X demo charge each-nothing like poping a transport and droping 3 charges on them!

*sentinals try to outflank and take out transports or get rear armor shots with HK missile and multi-laser, also for tying up random infantry units that don't have powerfists =)

*infantry platoon troop squads just outflank to take objectives, have flamer for targets of oportunity

Thing is, if I remember right al'rahem's platoon MUST outflank. That includes the SWS and they can't start off the board and in another squad's vehicle.

Correct but the transports must outflank too so they can come on the board, move on 6" then the special weapons team comes on 6" behind the tank and jumps in, problem solved. The thing is they both need to come on at the same time and same board edge but if it works out it is a good thing =).
