Hey guys i've been running a hybrid guard list so far in 6th and the 40 man blob in my list has been working really well, usually doing more than my vets. Thus i'm thinking of shifting more towards the foot side of the hybrid spectrum.

CCS
3 melta
standard

I dropped the 40 man blob and lord commie along with 2 squads of chiplasma vets and some points fillers to get some more platoon action. I went for 20 man blobs because commissars seem very squishy now a days and i can only have one lord commie if i take a CCS. The CCS got a standard to help the squads stay in place and i gave meltas to one squad to make up for the melta i lost for the banner. I have 80 spare points to spend so i'm considering making my russ demolishers because my plasmas are now BS 3 and i have more infantry to protect them from CC. I could see krak grenades being useful on the melta blob to help them kill vehicles and i might throw some plasmas and AC on one PCS because im not sure if 2 flamer PCS would be necessary. So what do you think of using many small blobs to provide more flexible bubble wrap and less wasted shots should i issue move move move or incoming?
