Hey guys i ve just got my guard up and running and i am going down to the local store to play on of my mates(he has Dark Eldar, webway list) so i was just wondering what you guys think?!?


Hq
Company command squad-powerfist,4xmelta guns=105p

Troops

Vets-2xplasma guns,1xheavy flamer,plasma pistol=130p

Platoon
platoon command squad-autocannon,plasma gun,vox,power weapon=70p
squad1-autocannon,plasma gun, vox=80p
squad2-autocannon,plasma gun=75p

Fast attack
vedatta=130p

valkyrie-multi missle pods=130p

valkyrie-multi missle pods=130p

Heavy support

Medusa=135p

=985p

15p to spent what to buy with it....? so the vets and ccs will jump in the valks scout and take out a nasty tanks or mostrous creatures. and the platoon will sit on a objective and proctet the medusa. SO ANY COMMENTS???

I would take the vet heavy flamer off and replace it with a third plasmagun...
Plasmaguns in platoon squads aren't very effective, you could replace them with a grenade launcher..AC/GL combo is quite good against DE!
Same thing for the PCS, 4xGL are great...

So the list would look like this:

CCS 4xMG PF = 105

Vets: 3xPG, PP = 125

Platoon:
PCS : 4xGL = 50
Squad 1 : GL, AC = 65
Squad 2 : GL, AC = 65

Vendetta = 130
Valk MRP = 130
Valk MRP = 130

Medusa = 135

You have 65 points left, maybe add a another GL/AC squad, or some goodie like carapace on the plasmavets and HB on the valks..
or maybe even MARBO

WELL...... that list seem cools but i have just started guard and have no grendae lauchers nor one more squad nor marbo other wise he would be in my list.
I only took the heavy flamer as it is going to hit a lot more guys then one more plasma gun and it will wound on 2+ which i love!
But yeah

Powerfist is a waste on such a small, squishy unit.

Troops

Heavy flamer is a waste on infantry. It's too expensive when you can get 4 regular flamers for the same price. If you want a suicide plasma unit, just get another plasma gun.

Platoon
platoon command squad-autocannon,plasma gun,vox,power weapon=70p
squad1-autocannon,plasma gun, vox=80p
squad2-autocannon,plasma gun=75p

Vox really isn't doing any good in such small games, I'd drop them. Power weapon should be dropped, you're sitting in the back field with a 5-man unit.....why gear them for CC. If you want power weapons, take a power blob.

Drop the plasma guns....they're too expensive for BS3 models. Grenade Launchers will work here.

Fast attack
vedatta=130p

valkyrie-multi missle pods=130p

valkyrie-multi missle pods=130p

Looks good, though I'd want a scoring unit in the Vendetta (I assume it's hanging back to shoot). A SWS with 3 flamers works well and is cheap.

Heavy support

Medusa=135p

=985p

This thing is hard to protect without chimera hulls to give it cover. You won't be getting cover saves on this most of the time with only infantry bubble-wrapping it.

SO ANY COMMENTS???

Don't use all caps and excessive punctuation. It's annoying and reeks of immaturity.

Eh... why buy a SWS when you have a perfectly good PCS doing nothing. SWS with 3 Flamers is 50pts, a PCS with 4 Flamers is 50pts. If you have a further 100pts, get two SWS with 3x Flamers for the Valks to make all of them scoring. If not, don't sweat it.

I would replace the Plasmas with Meltas in the PIS... more AT, even on BS 3 is worth it.

Give the CCS 2x Plasma guns and a LC to make better use of the BS 4. Also gives you a LC shot not tied to the Vendetta. Keep them within 12" of the blob and the Vets for Orders.

See what has been mentioned about the Heavy Flamer? Soak it in. Vets should really have Plasma guns or melta guns. Drop the Pistol unless you really have 10pts left over.

If you have the points for it, get a Commissar for the Blob. If your PIS is not blobed up, consider it for a defensive bubble around your Artillery.

Well just saying but i did win and it was a over kill game! I think the list i put up did very well but the only think i would change drop the heavyflamer as it didnt do much as i was to far to shoot it and i would spent the extra 20ps somewhere but where??? and i have no grendae lauchers but can make some! then i would have 50ps spare! what to buy?

Well it looks like you're trying to cram a lot into this list, but here's my stab at something that might work and uses your OP as a base:


HQ
Company Command Squad - x3 meltaguns - 80

Troops

Infantry Platoon - 280
- PCS - x4 Flamers
- IS - Autocannon, Chimera (ML/HB)
- IS - Autocannon, Chimea (ML/HB)

Veteran Squad - x3 Plasma Guns - 115

Fast Attack

Vendetta - xxx
Vallyrie - Multiple Rocket Pods - 130
Vallyrie - Multiple Rocket Pods - 130

Heavy Support
Medusa - xxx


It's not the most competitive, but swamps the field in AV12. 6 Vehicles at 1000 points can be an issue to deal with.

Use the chimeras to give your medusa a cover (leave a gap for line of sight). You can deploy the infantry squads inside, deploy them outside on their own, or deploy them outside and combine them. It's your call.

CCS, PCS, and Vets go in the vehicles. PCS should be in the vendetta (Lascannons kill the transport, PCS roasts the troops).

To save on points you may want to swap the veteran squad with 3 meltas instead and use the extra points to throw a 4th melta on the CCS.

CCS and Vets would go in the Valkyries (infantry bust open the transport, Valkyrie kills the troops inside.


Be careful, though....your infantry are fragile and you don't have many of them. Might be worth swapping on Valkyrie for a Vendetta. Play around with it.
