Hi dakka this is my first attempt at an AM army including ALL the models I currently own. It's not super competetive but I feel like it will do ok during games.

My idea is to deep strike the scions and have the veterans riding in the valkerie. Have one guardsman unit footslogging and the command squad and the other guardsman squad in the chimeras. Than just have the tanks providing cover fire from the backfield

Any notes?

Mostly solid small things I would change.

Remove the sponsons on the russ battle tank. Its main guns is ordinance so you will only snap fire other guns.

The Scion suicide squads, plasma is good for heavy infantry and those will be advancing ob your main unit so you might as well just have those guns on the ground from the beginning. Scions with meltas though are awesome tank hunters

The lascannon on the valkyrie is a waste, either you have one shot on a tank that likely misses, or you shoot infantry and the points are better used else where

Straight away I saw power sword and plasma pistol. this looks cool but I'd recommend one or the other.
I also like flamers but I guess it depends what you're up against.

Oh wow thanks for the heads up on the lemun Russ I didn't notice it said ordnance as for framers I'm gonna try to magnetize the special weapon guy so I can have different variants. I'll take off the lascannon your right it's BS is to low to really use it affectiveley.
