So ATM I've got around 1500 points. I've been collecting it very casually and adding in units slowly as required. I.e. Blobs ran off the board a few times so next purchase was commissars etc... It's casually in nature but I would love to take this to tourneys once I've got it to 1850 just because I love playing IG win or lose but placing well is nice

What I have synergizes very well. I form 2 battle groups of 20 men, 1 leman Russ and a PCS that I try and keep mobile and the remaining infantry and CCS form my defensive line with the ADL and AA-gun.

I feel my AA is adequate as is AT (for my meta at least) but what I'd really like is a unit or two that can adequately put multiple wounds on T7/8 MCs and take hull points off high AV at range. Also my commands are V fragile and almost free KPs (not to meantion first blood).

Units in green are what I currently have and I'm happy with so they aren't up for too much discussion and the ones in red are what I'm planning to add. I'll spin a little dit at the end to explain my choices a little

CCS - missile launcher, vox, regimental standard, master of pie plates, cammo cloaks.

PCS - 5 tickets for the next one way journey alla le Vendatta

Infantry squad - plasma gun, las cannon,
Infantry squad - plasma gun, las cannon, vox, Commissar.

7 Ratling snipers.

ADL - Quad auto-gun

PCS - 3 flamers, vox, Chimera - multilaser, heavy flamer.

Vendetta gunship.

Leman Russ executioner - sponson plasma cannons, hull las cannon.

Leman Russ exterminator - sponson heavy bolters, hull heavy bolter.

Manticore missile carrier.

So my thoughts ATM are chimeras for PCSs so I can protect them (also adding to the armoured wall that I often use to cover my blobs as they advance also I can add an av14 frontage to protect the chimera in turn).

Camo for CCS (as they are back liners always wrapped in a blob and ADL... Speaking of which, they usually man the AA-gun which draws attention so a new commi to man it in a blob to take they heat off the CCS), Rattling snipers to add cheap Wounds to MCs and a manticore.... Because, well... They're awesome models.

An additional bare bones pcs to ride the vendetta with the sole purpose of being 5 scoring wounds for a turn 6 gravshute insertion to land on an objective (I can advance adequately with my blobs but it's almost always a battle of attrition).

Oh, and the Russ' can swap the turrets to spread the plasma around a bit I suppose.
