You can't blob platoon squads....

Um, that is the only squads you can blob.

Page 37 combined squads; good reading

Only applies to Infantry squads.

Oh, i thought you were referring to PCS's

no problem.

Just re-read your list and see that you have the Vendetta hidden in the Vets.

Take the 210 points you spent on Heavy Weapons teams, and the 120 on 2 Autocannon squads and use them to make 5 Platoon Infantry Squads with 3 Lascannons and 2 Missile launchers(340 points); you will need to "down grade" both Plasmaguns in the Vet squads to Meltas as well.

What's wrong w/ the plasma?

nothing exactly it just won't hurt AV 14 and I needed to find you 10 points.

You already have 3 running and gunning in the CCS and they are different classed weapons than the meltas.

I am not the biggest fan of the Melta-vet spam Metagame but point-wise and job-wise it is moer effective to have the 3 meltas on your vets.

I honestly wish I had focused more on synergy when assembling my guard; I have wasted Grenade Launcher models and am waiting to save some money for my dream list:
2 50 man Melta/Lascannon Squads w/PWcommissars, Creed and Kell w/medic and 2 Meltas, Melta/Lascannon CCS, 2 Flamer PCSs, Vet squad w/harker heavy flamer 2 Flamers+demolitions, 5 ratlings

And if I drop the plasma, I can stick on GL's for my line inf.
