Drop sniper rifles they are useless. get them some plasma or
GL (maybe)
martin74 wrote:PCS: Flamer x3, Medic, Commisar w/ power fist
Medic is just a waist of points so drop it, and the commissar too. I assume your
PCS wil stay on your side. so i would change those flamers in more long ranged firepowers. So
GL and an autocannon

I assume that you want a platoon to sit on your objective.
so go with 2-3 PIS and give them a autocannon and some
GL, joined by a commissar.
plus never use different weapons in a
HW-team. always choose the same.

Chimera w/ multi laser, heavy bolter, heavy stubber
drop heavy stubber, and maybe the carpace (
imo I don't think they worth there points).
Always give your chimera's a HHF it is a free upgrade and you will be happy if you run in to hordes..

good
martin74 wrote:Commissar Yarrick
Ogryn Sqaud (bone 'ead w/ two Ogryn)
Chimera qith multi laser, hull flamer, heavy stubber
drop the heavy stubber. also drop commisar yarrick and get a normal lord commisar.

these are
DS suicide units. so keep them cheap. only use 5 troopers in each squad.
And give them 2x melta or 2x plasma. and then just deepstrike next to wathever you want destroyed.

Not good, but not bad either.
martin74 wrote:LRBT w/ lascannon x2 (squadron)
LR exterminator: lascannon, heavy bolter sponsons
LR Demolisher: multi-melta Sponsons, Dozer blade
first drop all lascannons, sponson and dozerblade.
second never squadron tanks, because it makes your 150+ points investment much easier to destroy.
third the exterminator is pure rubbisch.

Start on the board: HQ
big platoon
Exterminator
Demolisher
Yarrick/Ogryns/Chimera
Reserves: Stormtrooper 1 (deep strike)
Stormtrooper 2 (deep strike)
Scout Sentinels x3 (outflank)
Vet 1 in Chimera
Vet 2 in Chimera
LRBT
always start with every thing on the board. except your outflankers and deepstrikers. this will saturate your enemy with potentional threats. so hopefully he will shoot at random. and then you just ram everything in his throat.
use left over points to get vets with melta and a chimera. because your low on melta.
