This is the army of Ted. Ted is strong, Ted is beast. Ted walk across field or fly with shiny brain man.

But in all seriousness the only thing I can think of to make this cooler would be to have Nork the Commissar leading the charge.
This list is a wall.
Depending on how lucky you get with your psykers you can have deep striking Ogryns... or Ogryns with It will not die and feel no pain ogryns that reroll "to hits"(Yarrick can order them to do that anyway). 3+ armor saves at the front and Yarrick Driving them across the field The army of Ted is mobile and can actually receive its orders. Wyverns are there to take out those pesky units that hide from Ted. Make sure that you charge with Ted. Foot guard has a new boss...his name is Ted.

I'm going to go ahead and request the most glorious of battle reports.

When is deadly danger,
When beset by doubt,
Run in little circles,
And wave your hands and shout.

i think it is important to note that there are 130 assault shots with 8 frag launcher shots .. be fore the 225 charge attacks with re-rerolling random stuff. T5 left and right with the ability to heal (possibly)

Yarrick is now the most badass HQ for IG/AM since he is both a commissar and a senior officer with 2 orders.... and he is damn near un-killable.

and for those of you who have yet to see the Wyverns in combat... they are BRUTAL

Only problem I see is actually getting those dudes up the field without being totally mangled.

T5 with 3 wounds hiding behind the wall of Bullgryns that link together to get a 3+ armor save... they are pretty much guaranteed to make a save. you just have to blob them up (so to speak) and be ready to charge anything you can. also the new order "for the emperor" is fire then run.
then you can assault IIRC(not from the order but just cause). or if you need to haul ass "Move,Move,Move!" still exists.

if you roll well on the biomancy table you can pick up the healing blessing to give those adorable dudes FNP and IWNT they all have psykers to help get DTW and LD9 commissars/psykers.

or if you really want to risk it. shoot for the teleport and deepstrike up the field, then order your guys to "Forward, For the Emperor"

it is a tidal wave of line backers. most of the things that can hamper their movement have to get within striking range or can only make a limited number of shots that cant Instant death T5.

also am Ogryn charging into combat with 1W left is still 4 S5 WS 4 attacks with a free HoW S5 attack....each. not to mention the 3 S5 ripper shots from each of them that come before.

This army list reeks of Warmachine and it'd play like a Man-o-War list.. which is bad in 40k given that you'll most likely run it in a brick formation to get the most out of their defensive capabilities.

My main issue with them is that you're most likely to get outmaneuvered by pretty much anything. A few things come to my mind that would ruin your day - Tau gunline, Eldar, Riptides and while they basically ruin ANYONE's day another big problem is.. the same codex you're using, ironically.

With easy access to tanks in HQ slots it's easy to have 3 Manticores in an AM list, leaving you with 3d3 S10 Ap4 barrage large blasts that will evaporate your ogryn brick in one or two turns. And if that doesn't remove them from play, 2 LR punishers will cover you in such a generous amount of multi-melta, punisher and lascannon shots that there will be nothing left of your force, tabling you turn 2 or 3.

That being said it looks like some fun little project and I'd love to see someone play that, even just for the majestic lulz!
