So.... I currently have a necron army, but I have been toying with the idea of starting a mech Imperial Guard list. I love the idea of putting all those big models on a table and rolling them about the place. I really like this sort of list, but is it TOO competitie? Will I just look like a massive know running so many vehicles etc?

Its pretty much 2,000 pts. and I would be trying to make smaller points lists from this pool. Thoughts appreciated.

CCS with Astropath and power-fisted comander, vox caster and 2Xplasma

2 X Scout Sentinel (love the model) - 1 w AC 1w ML

3 X Vendetta

3 X LRBT (HB / HB / HF)

2 X Manticore

Don't take the Heavy Flamer, take a Bolter Boat (way more effective). Also, the Astropath doesn't take up a CCS slot of one of the guys, he's an addition (IIRC) and Voxcasters aren't that good, IMO I'd throw out the Astropath and Voxcaster to get another plasgunner for your CCS ;3 Also, put Heavy Bolters on your Chimeras (Again, much better than HF, trust me, I made the decision of having one )

Thanks for the kitting advice...

But as a general shape, will people throw things at me if I turn up with this?

This is an solid TAC List..its not over the top. nor will it get eaten alive. It will give the most competative lists a run for the money while not being so over powered as to take it out of the realm of "friendly" pick up games.
