So there it is, lots of tanks. Basically the russes(depending on the enemies army) will either sit back and fire down range or slowly advance on the enemies army. The chimeras will act as defensive units and when the enemy gets close to assaulting or using melta on my russes they will spring forward and block the enemy from the russes.
Yet again a fun army but would like to see peoples opinion on what they would think if this was up against them.
Against Orks
Wagon Rush-it will work against a wagon rush
Horde-..Would fair poorly against any horde army- just not enough firepower
Speed Freaks-..would put a hurt on trukkers..
Biker based- would die quickly to biker based armies
Just run regular Lehman Russ battle tanks and from there I would drop the plasma on the veterans in that one chimera and get them all straight melta. I run Pask in a Punisher because things die in droves.
I wouldnt say I want anti air as I would just try to ignore air and if a unit really didnt have anything else to shoot at then they could try their hopes at air. But that means against flying crons or daemon prince armies Im probably going to lose.
