"HQ

i'd keep it cheap.

the HMBC 81 point plan.


if you drop the excess off the HQ,change the Chimera to ML turret
and drop the Sent, you could add another chimera for the HQ.

a second thought,

"...to build in to my larger 1500 point posted elsewhere on the board."

there isn't much antitank firepower in this list.

which at 750, you won't need much.

but i'd make sure to add some if you make it bigger.

so that list would read:

Skills and Drills: Iron Discipline

HQ
