				<title>Space Marine &amp; Imperial Guard Allies - 1850 points prospective army</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ I have played quite heavily over the last few months since coming back to <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(3);'>40k</span> and my army is a work in progress. I have planned out a couple of prospective lists trying to form something slightly competitive. Before I spend a load of money on some new toys I thought I'd try and get some feedback on the main list I am inclined towards. Ideally if you were to face this list what would be your thoughts? Highlighting strengths and especially weaknesses would be very much appreciated. <br /> <br /> <b>Allied Detatchment</b> Imperial Guard<br /> <br /> <b><span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(56);'>HQ</span></b><br /> <br /> 70 - Primaris Psyker<br /> <br /> <b>Troops</b><br /> <br /> 230 - Platoon<br /> - 5 x platoon command<br /> - 5 x 10 infantry<br /> <br /> <b>Fast Attack</b><br /> <br /> 260 - 2 x Vendetta (Squad)<br /> <br /> <br /> <b>Main Detatchment</b> Space Marines<br /> <br /> <b><span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(56);'>HQ</span></b><br /> <br /> 165 - Tigurius (Warlord)<br /> <br /> 180 - Terminator Librarian<br /> - Mastery Level 2<br /> - Terminator Armour<br /> - <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(221);'>SS</span><br /> - Burning Blade<br /> <br /> 50 - Techmarine<br /> <br /> <b>Troops</b><br /> <br /> 119 - Scout Squad<br /> - Telion<br /> - Sniper Rifles<br /> - Camo Cloaks<br /> <br /> 68 - Scout Squad<br /> - Sniper Rifles<br /> - Camo Cloaks<br /> <br /> <b>Elites</b><br /> <br /> 225 - Hammernators<br /> <br /> <b>Heavy Support</b><br /> <br /> 200 - Stormraven Gunship<br /> - <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(330);'>MM</span><br /> - Assault Cannon<br /> <br /> 130 - Devatator Squad<br /> - 4 x Plasma Cannon<br /> <br /> 65 - Whirlwind<br /> <br /> <b>Fortifications</b><br /> <br /> 80 - Aegis Defence Line<br /> - Icarius Lascannon<br /> <br /> <br /> Total Points - 1842<br /> <br /> <br /> My idea would be to roll tigurius on Divination and the Libby on Telepathy or Biomancy. Possibly pushing all 3 <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(56);'>HQ</span> psykers upfield in units of imperial infantry with the hammernators moving up at the same time, then jump all 3 <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(56);'>HQ</span> into the hammernator squad once near <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(19);'>CC</span> range to deliver the 'punch'.<br /> <br /> The Telion squad would sit in the defence line with telion firing the icurius cannon. The Techmarine would sit in the stormraven to give it hull point recovery and bolster whichever piece of terrain the second scout squad were in or the devastators (hopefully both). <br /> <br /> The Whirlwind is more an afterthought but i play a lot of tau and eldar players so to have an AP4/5 large blast comes in handy and would hopefully steal some attention from the more valuable units. <br /> <br /> General thoughts on tactics is to gain early domination of flying zone to then be able to take out the large <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(6);'>AP</span>/ high wound <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(93);'>MC</span> enemy ground units. <br /> <br /> So, i'd love to gain feedback on the army construction and tactics. are 55 imperial infantry enough or should i bolster my scoring units? My only real concern at the moment with this list is that the <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(69);'>IG</span> would fall dead too easily leaving me rather shy of scoring units. I am aware that the army is not particularly mobile either and ignoring tactical squads may be a big mistake but could this army work?]]></description>
