There are a million ways to play guard and hundreds of ways of playing them "right" However that means there are hundreds of thousands of ways of playing the wrong. What are you most interested in, You have three major paths to pick from. Drop troop, mech, and sit and shoot.

At 1850, 3 hell hounds, 3 russ hulls, and as many lascannons as you can fit in the list. So also argue for 2 russ hulls and one bassie with indirect as the board turns into a parking lot really quick. Keep all upgrades on the tanks and troops to a bare minium and you should do all right.
