-1 Leman Russ Demolisher

-2 Leman Russ Battle Tanks

-3 Basilisks (fielded as Medusa Cannons when playing as a siege list, I love the model)

I also plan on adding a Valkyrie mostly for show because I want to paint it red like the Red Baron from world War 1 to feed into the german/ww1 feel of the Death Korps

-1 Rhino Tank

-1 Venerable Dreadnought

The LRBTs and basilisks are great for MeQ, and the demolisher is good for termies, however, with only one, it will most likey be destroyed before you can use it (especially since its range is so low), I would probably swap out one of the LRBTs for another demolisher, especially since you have enough AP3 weapons with the basilisks. Hell, I might even drop both and get a manticore (but hey, that is exactly what I use, 3 basilisks, 2 demoilshers, 1 manticore) so those are my reasons, I am sure you have your reasons according to your meta. I wouldn't put a command squad in a chimera so the MoO can fire. I don't see muchuse for the dark angel allies, I would drop them and pick up an ADL or a couple valkaries.

But now this is basically my exact list, hell, it is my exact list if you make those changes, so I am sure you have reasons for your list according to your meta.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563567/6257805.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563567/6257805.page GMT DKoK/ Standard Guard List 40k universe as well in my opinion. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563567/6258056.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563567/6258056.page GMT DKoK/ Standard Guard List

The reason I took the Dark Angels allies was more from a fluff standpoint, I loved the idea of fresh looking space marines swooping into battle to aid the war torn Imperial Guard. Also because I somehow obtained the models over time from friends and family for little to no cost, and I ended up painting them very nicely and I love the way they turned out and look great next to my Death Korps. Really settles the feel for the warhammer 40k universe as well in my opinion.


Well, as long as you are enjoying the game, more power to you.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563567/6258280.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563567/6258280.page GMT DKoK/ Standard Guard List IIRC the death korps fluff in IA12 mentions they are distrusting of Dark Angels due to their lack of openess and secretive behaviour.

if you look at IA12 you can run a pretty reasonable assualt brigade build with what you have with the extra rules available making grenadiers troops and gaining Assault 2 las guns and Move through cover as orders upgrades.

The idea of WW1 fluff gives me visions of heavy gun lines pounding the enemy or advancing into the smoke on No Mans Land. Both lists available allow you to do both

If you look at Centaurs as potential small elite team delivery systems they can work. Fast vehicles that the engineers (PG/MG/MB/HF and Gas grenades) can assault out of and pop a tank with a follow up Gas Grenade, HF template ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563567/6258497.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563567/6258497.page GMT
