How many points?

It looks terribly bottom-heavy. Basically, your opponent just needs to destroy/keep shaken a couple of tanks and all that's left is a do-nothing infantry formation and a couple AV12 vehicles.

Strip off all of those upgrades and spend the points on more, better infantry.

You no you comment on all my stuff. But anyway its supous to be 2000pts but i forgot to type in the two veteran squads

Veteran Squad
harker
3 meltas
forward sentries

Veteran squad
powerfist
2 flamers
heavy flamer
Demolitions
Chimera

Is that better ?

OH and could you put a army list you think would be good because that would help a lot.

The vets makes it better, but the list is still bottom heavy and unfocused. At 2000 points, you should start with 4 of the same type of troops choice and 3 of the same type of one support unit. Fill in from there.

I'd put a list down, but it really depends on what you want to do.

Ailaros comments on almost all guard lists. It's just what he does.

Wouldn't bother with the power fist. Wouldn't spend the points on Harker, either, I'd just give them a chimera and turn your second squad of vets into a duplicate for redundancy.

Sponsons are way too expensive for a leman unless you're taking HF for area denial. STR 10 ordnance should be enough to deal with just about anything.

Drop straken, he brings nothing to this list because your guardsmen are going to get shot up and run and/or be swept up in assault.

Well what i want is something thats good against space marines army which can deal with a death star unit.

and ok. Harker is there to give them a 2+ cover save and infitrate and move through cover. Which the heavy flamers sponsons is a little weird because most squad that would be close to it will probably have a power fist or melta so theres no point.

power blobs (infantry platoons with lots of power weapons) and artillery are the best things against small, expensive units. That and plasma spam.

Thanks but I think the power weapons in guardsmen squads making it to expensive for something that gets destroyed in combat anyway. Also most death star units in Space marine armies are in a land raider.

actually, with a huge number of abblative wounds and rerollable stubborn Ld9, it makes a squad that DOESN'T get destroyed slightly more expensive to make it rock face in combat.

If you don't believe me, see some examples here.

I mean, you don't have to use power blobs if you don't want to, but don't let false stereotypes guide your decision.

Actually that is a good idea because for this list if you put power blobs with power weapon straken gives them furious charge and counter attack. So that would make them really nasty (for imperial guard) and if they had commissars it would let it stick in there.

But man everybody knows that the command squad fr IG are the best assaulting units.
