I was playing DoW3 and upgraded my IW Tac Squads with plasma. Now I want to make an infantry based IW Plasma army.

*outdated just for fun list to see how many plasma marines I could fit in a list

Spoiler:

Give that outdated list a look for fun if you want. The updated list is found below and it's more of a serious attempt to bring the plasma, while still having a well rounded TAC style list.

The objective is to play the Objectives as well as I can. Marines go for cover in pairs; one LC + Plasma Squad, by objectives. The Sorc and a JP Lord buff the Brutes, while the Prince, Defiler and the remaining JP Lord escort the Marine Pairs. I see this being played as three large units in a sense, with Brute artillery back them up.

I would really like to hear your thoughts on this list. I play at a pretty friendly GS by my house without to many competitive players. More of a beer and pretzel environment, with a very large mix of armies.

Please let me know your thoughts! I'd have to pick up the LC+ML Brutes, but I have everything else so input would be greatly appreciated.
