Hey Dakkazillas, I'm deciding between a vanilla IG Dex list or a Death Korps list. Both will use the Death Korps models (as they look so freaking boss). Which list do you guys think would be both more fun and more competitive?

IG VANILLA DEX LIST

HQ
Tank Commander Pask in Vanquisher
*Leman Russ BT (I know, they suck)

Commissar

TROOPS
Infantry Platoon
*PCS
*Infantry Squad with GL and Vox
*Infantry Squad with GL
*Infantry Squad with Flamer
*Mortar Team
(Will blob the 30 dudes with the commissar and use the mortars separately so that they can shoot at different targets to the platoon)

Grenadier Vets in Chimera with 3x Meltas

For the Death Korps list, I was thinking of taking out one of the Quad Launchers and a squad of infantry (plus every vox from the army...) for a Colossus bombard. Thoughts?

Is this something to buy up to or make use of what you already have?

Out of those two as is? One. Two has almost not anti tank capabilities. The vanquisher might kill ~1 tank a game, maybe. I ain't into the bane wolf though. There's already a bit of anti infantry stuff in there. I'd rejig the platoon too, ACs, PGs

If your attack is going too well, you have walked into an ambush

The easy way is always mined

Hmm, that's true. I forgot to add more anti-tank... Hmm, would you suggest anything for army two for anti-tank? I really like the idea of H-Stubbers and Mortars, but maybe I'll have to change them to ACs and LCs? Or maybe I could swap out something else? The BT can act as a somewhat okay tank hunter with Str 8 Ordinance.

I already have a platoon of 30 and a PCS. That's pretty much it. I'd also love to use Death Riders haha. Otherwise everything else can be rejiged. I'd like it to be interesting still though - not spammy
