The title is pretty self explanatory. However just for a little more fun, lets completely ignore the force organization chart. That means you can take 12 heavy support choices and nothing else. Any ideas?

lol.

Seriously, though, you get 10 meltabomb 20-dude power blobs with points to spare for 2000 points. With minimal work, this becomes 90 rerollable power weapon attacks, or 26 rerollable meltabomb attacks on the charge. Not to mention the potential 340 rerollable regular attacks on the charge.

...the scary part is, that this can actually be a legitimate list at this points level, FOC included...

Nah, 36 leman russes would pretty much wreck everything you have. Especially because everything I would have is either a pie plate or AP2

meanwhile the power blobs wreck the death company AND the razorback list.

Although it WOULD be pretty awesome to see a 36-russ army.

A 36 lemon russes would not fit into a 2000 point battle. It would have to be closer to 13. Which is unlucky in addition to the numbers reduction. And I'm still sticking with the missile wolves.

Thats true,.
But in a Steel legion list it is legal to take 36 leman russes.

The Steel Legion thing from 3E just allowed you to take Chimeras as dedicated transports when IG could only take chimeras on stuff like command squads and stormtroopers otherwise.

The Armored Company and Armored Battlegroup lists allow you to take lots of Russ tanks, the IA: Armored Battlegroup will let you get in like 24 russ tanks or something plus lots of other stuff though if you max it out.

Warlord titan, 2 Volcano Cannons, 2 Vortex support missiles... It can more than cover your entire deployment zone in Strength D or higher templates in one turn. OH SHI-


EDIT: darn that is 2500 points... well lets see then, the old reaver that was 1250 points and a warhound. Reaver has 2 melta cannons and a VSM, and the 'Hound is Las-spam. Basically the same thing.
