How can I make this army even more dakka dakka intense yet still have something that can win?

Well it is very dakkay but what are you going to do against AV 14?

Yeah I thought about that. To be honest at my LGS I’m the only Guard player and 3/4th are Tau players. Only a small handful of SM players so the amount of AV 14 I see is few and far between. The reason I threw in Marbo was to have one melta bomb on the field and having a pair of lascannons on my PCS just to give me a little AV 14 damage if needed. If someone does roll me with AV 14 then so be it, guess that will be this list major flaw but if that’s the only one I can handle that.

Tbh I would switch the load outs of your ccs and pcs. You want the lascannon in the higher bs squad. Bs4 for ccs only 3
For pcs. You will hit 4 turns out of 6 with ccs but only 3 turns out of 6 with pcs. Big difference. No point wasting veteran bs on Flamers.

Maybe drop 1 punisher for a demoliser and it is a good anti av14 tank and will pulverise those annoying battlesuits!

Overview of your list ranged wise is.

2 ap2 weapons
6 ap4 weapons
9 ap5 weapons
And god knows how many ap- weapons lol
Think you need some more lower ap stuff for riptides, battlesuits etc

True enough but I can’t stick a lascannon in a chimera and have it fire it out (unless I have been totally wrong about this) and that would leave my CCS to out in the open for my taste. Plus having my CCS close by for orders should help some with re-rolls.

The rule allows you to pick 5 models from your unit to shoot out of a Chimera. It could be Heavy Weapons too. The Chimera is a moving Bunker for its unit inside.

I'm not sure on the points, however:

1. Drop one of the punishers/ Add a heavy weapons team of las cannons, you might even have the points for two.

2. Drop either a vulture (I wouldn't just because I like the looks) or another punisher and add a vendetta.

You need to increase your low AP weapons.

3. Not a fan of flamers on CCS. I would drop them, replace with sniper rifles, maybe even get rid of the chimera and go:

CCS: sniper x2/ lascannon/ MoO/ Astropath

Your army though.

You can fire a heavy weapon out of the chimera (i know it doesn't make sense). snap shot if you move though. However, it seems you don't want the CCs out in the open. Well, a chimera is called a coffin for a reason. When it blows up, and it will, your guardsmen die,, regardless of rank.
