Hey guys,

So my LGS is running a narrative campaign entirely fought using the cities of death rules, and I've been selected to go on a special mission. Table is set up hammer & anvil, with a road down the middle, lots of ruins on either side. I start on one end, and have to get to the other side with as many units as possible. The other opponent is Dark Eldar, and can deploy on either flank!

I'm setting my list up with a hybrid of mech and foot, (the boots on the ground are going to be meat shields for the tanks).
Strategy is to stall assaults with the infantry, counterattack, then make a break for it to the other side.

Go mech all the way. Transports can forgo shooting and just move quickly leaving your battle tanks to move and shoot. Keep as much armor as you can.

Im expecting to be in assault turn 2, my tanks are toast if theres nothing to get in his way. So hell waste his assault on my troops, while i counter with the tanks and then drive off.
