There's a upcoming big battle back home.... and I'm undecided as to which army to play, so I made two lists.... It's an ork vs. IG fight..... so that's why the IG are geared to kill mass infantry and light vehichles.

Here's the IG

Command Platoon-236
Junior Officer
-Honorifica Imperialis
Veteran
-Standard
Fire Support Squad
-3 Heavy Bolters
Fire Support Squad
-3 Heavy Bolters

Infantry Platoon-204
Command Squad-52
-2 Flamers
Infantry Squad-76
Heavy Bolter, Flamer
Infantry Squad-76
Heavy Bolter, Flamer

Armored Fist Squad-161
-Heavy Bolter, Flamer
Chimera-85
-Heavy Flamer, Heavy Bolter

Heavy Weapon Platoon-200
Command Squad-40
Fire Support squad-80
-3 Heavy Bolters
Fire Support Squad-80
-3 Heavy Bolters

22 heavy bolters+ 6 Flamers+ bunch of flashlights+ Luck= a bunch of dead orks.

And here's the orks

Warboss-107
-Power Klaw, Choppa, Waaagh! Banner

9 Trukk Boyz(And Warboss)-135
-Burna
Nob
-Choppa, Slugga
Trukk
-Grot Riggers, Rokkit Launcha

10 Trukk Boyz-169
-Burna
Nob
-Power Klaw, Slugga
Trukk
-Grot Riggers, Rokkit Launcha

10 Trukk Boyz-144
-Burna
Nob
-Choppa, Slugga
Trukk
-Grot Riggers, Rokkit Launcha

Wartrack-42
-Grot Riggers, TL Rokkit Launcha

Guntrukk-72
-Grot Riggers, Zzap Gun

50 Orks on turn 2= A bunch of dead guardsmen

6 Rokkit Launchas+ Zzap Gun + 4 Power Klaws+ 5 Burnas+ Luck= Lots of dead tanks

Which do you think would be better? I'm leaning more towards the guard.... but that's because of the people I know playing on the IG side

**Angron**

Anyone?

Personally orks are more fun to play !

I find guard tedious :| But, thats just a "IMHO" kinda thing.

If you know you are only going to be fighting IG then throw in 3 or 4 Skorchas as they will eat the IG alive.
S3 guns can't touch them and they are killing 6-7 of them on 2+. Too good to pass up at such cheap points.

Other then that, knowing you are going to be fighting only IG is a rediculous advantage as their basilisks and Russ's are going to be mass overkills and as such killing T3 5+ save guard are what BS's and S3 boyz are best at.

Stick with the Orkz.

**Blackclaw**

I'd go with the IG I think, just for the fun of getting to fight a green tide of enemies (plus I LOVE heavy bolters).

Hey Angron, by any chance are you from the Vancouver BC area?
