This for a Doubles tournament at are local store, the only rule is you have to have one troop (as there is two of you so there will be two in the overall list), the tourney is played on 4x4. So I decided to use my guard rather than Templar as there cheaper points and what have you, any way here’s the list:

Hq

Company command squad-3xplasma guns, regimental standard, chimera ml/hf =165p

Troops

Platoon command squad-4x flamers, chimera ml/hf =105p

Infantry squad-autocannon, meltagun-70p
Infantry squad-autocannon, meltagun-70p
Infantry squad-autocannon, meltagun-70p (^^ these combine)

Heavy support

Medusa-135p

Medusa-135p

=750p
Tell me what you think? This is to have fun but would be nice to win some games!

Nothing?

Your blob will be better off with PWs in it, so it stands a chance in CC. Plus commisars always help so your troops don't run away (and they will without one). other than that, i think it is great for 750, have fun!

Thanks for the adive warboss zarruk, i would have loved to do that it is just the lack of power weapons i have and no points for commisar, so i put autocannons in for the same price of a power weapon! And that run away thing that why i got the banner so i can get some reroll moral tests going.

Your points are tied up in the two Chimeras. Drop them to pay for properly equipting your blob with a commissar and power weapons.

If you had everyone in Chimeras, fine. But since your not doing that, two Chimeras is kinda... weak. Give your CCS a Lascannon and camo cloaks and camp them next to the blob and issue Orders when you have too.

The LC gives you some much need long range AT incase you run into a LRBT or a Vindicator, Pred, or AV 13 Dread.

PCS could be given quad GLs for range, Sniper Rifles, or even a HWT (AC, HB, or Mortor). I am fine with keeping them all flamers though. You can kinda keep them as a attacking unit.

Wel the reason i have the two chimera is that most of the games are not the standard mission, there like go capture the objective and bring it home and werid stuff like that. so that why was going to as aggresive as possibly with them.

Reconsidered what you two said about long rande support i remade my list..

Hq

Company command squad-1xlascannon, 1xplasma guns, regimental standard =100p

Troops

Platoon command squad-4x flamers =50p

Infantry squad-autocannon, meltagun-70p
Infantry squad-autocannon, meltagun-70p
Infantry squad- meltagun-60p (^^ these combine)

Fast attack

Vendatta-130p (the platoon command jump in here, for mid turn objective grabbing)

Heavy support

Medusa-135p

Medusa-135p

=750p

The Vendetta does give you more mobility. And for weird missions like your describing it should work out.

How sold are you on the Medusas? That could be more troops, to the point of dual 20 man blobs or a 30 and a 20... maybe even a extra vendetta and a Valk with MRPs.

Or are you working with a model restriction (as the comment on lack of PWs kinda leads to)?

The limit of a single troop choice (a guard platoon), when compaired to other lists means you have a bigger advantage. PCS, 5x PIS, 5x HWS, 2x SWS and a squad of 50 conscripts (and your PCS could have Chenkov) can give you a very powerful list at 750pts. I am just not sure I would throw that advantage away for vehicles when you can probably have the most boots on the ground in comparison.

Well as i went down the store today i have found out the rules have changed a little you now can only have one fast/elies/heavy and to get a second fast/elite/heavy you have to have one of each. And yes i am working with restriced models. so this is it...
