I also don't see how it's a mechvet-ish list when you only have 1 chimera. Either focus on mech or all-out infantry. If you only own 1 chimera put your CCS in with it with 4 plasma guns

Drop the vox and snipers, add chimeras for the vets. There is no reason for a vox system because you only have 1 squad that will benefeit from orders Forward sentries is kinda a waste for 30 pts.

The list seems balanced but the efficiency of it is a little odd. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/346829/2447076.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/346829/2447076.page GMT 2000 pt IG Mechvet-ish list

Yeah, i really don't know why I called it mechvet-ish; probably because i was thinking of my larger list with 3 additional chimeras, and there are 2 sitting squads, w/forward sentries, and 3 with meltas and demolitions]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/346829/2447117.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/346829/2447117.page GMT Re:2000 pt IG Mechvet-ish list
I also have a thing about people putting heavy bolters on vendettas. It just doesn't make sense to me. Also, your executioners are super expensive, but could be effective. I used to run sponsons on my russes, but have given them up and never looked back.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/346829/2447127.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/346829/2447127.page GMT Re:2000 pt IG Mechvet-ish list

The reason I put HBs on my Vendettas is that I've played a couple games where there was no armor on the table at the time, and I've regretted just being able to shoot 6 LC shots at infantry, killing 6 guys, at most. As for the Vets, i've found it effective to run my melta squads w/o chimeras, and just have them running up and assaulting the tanks that were trying to dominate my deployment zone. Under other circumstances, more specifically, the one with me being able to buy 3 more chimeras, I would give them all a ride, but until them, they're gunna have to walk ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/346829/2447153.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/346829/2447153.page GMT 2000 pt IG Mechvet-ish list HW in the sitting squads?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/346829/2450898.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/346829/2450898.page GMT
