Hey guys, I'm collecting a small amount of Imperial Guard, and was wondering if my list would be alright for competitive games between friends. Go ahead and critique it.

HQ:
CCS - 190
- 4 Plasmaguns
- Carapace Armour
- Krak Grenades
- Chimera

Troops:
Veterans - 155
- 3 Meltaguns
- Chimera

Veterans - 155
- 3 Meltaguns
- Chimera

Total: 500 Points

How does this look for 500 points? The krak grenades were just to fill the last 5 points, and I think carapace armour is a good idea knowing my luck with gets hot rolls.

Any thoughts at all guys?

I'd call this thread a trainwreck, but trainwrecks are legitimately horrifying to watch. This is hilarious.

Seems alright maybe lacking in anti-infantry fire powe , swapping out the three meltaguns in one veteran squad for grenade launchers might be an idea given their flexibility. Not sure what you would do with the 15 left over points though.

Generally seems solid. If you can spend the points elsewhere I'd probably drop the krak grenades on the CCS as the rest of your troops already have them. Also like what the above poster said, it is a *little* low in anti-infantry. I've been playing 500 point 'guard lists recently and the triple-melta squads have generally been disappointing. See what works for you, but keep an open mind.

The key to being able to enjoy the game in real life and also be a member of this online community is to know where you draw the line. What someone online on the other side of the world that you've never met says should never deter you from taking a unit for being either weak or OP. The community is a great place to come for tactics advice, and there is a lot of very sound opinions and idea out there, but at the end of the day, play the game how you want to... Don't worry about the hordes of Dakka descending on your gaming club to arrest you for taking one heldrake or not using a screamerstar. Knowing the standard opinion (and that's all it is) on what is good/bad and conforming to that opinion religiously are two entirely separate things.

How about this,

CCS -
4 plas guns
carapace armour
krak grenades
chimera

30 man guardsmen squad-
flamer
grenade launcher
melta gun

Leman russ battle tank

10 guardsmen

a much stronger list and it will be hard to kill them all because of numbers and you get a TANK!

Blood Ravens, 1700pts

Empire 40 wounds

Astra Militarum 2250pts

Khorne 750pts

Space Wolves 1550pts

Orks 500pts

Ok I changed it up to add in the grenade launchers for anti infantry, and I could change them to flamers depending on what I feel like using. I also got rid of the the krak grenades, and added a heavy bolter team to each veteran squad for anti infantry. Not sure if autocannons would be better though.

Yeah I think that looks like a more balanced list , if your not sure about heavy bolters or autocannons take one of each, can't go wrong then

I'd stay with the HB because the AC is nice cause it's flexible but you already have those three meltas.

Say what? This list is all jacked up on being wrong lol. For 1 you cant just have guardsmen squads or blobs without having a PCS, just because you have a CCS doesnt mean anything, in order to run a platoon you still need a PCS. Also the list in general is over by 70pts. You sure you checked your math? lol
