I'm gearing up to build my first army, 750 points of Imperial Fists. I've gotten two roughly comparable lists together as far as number of models and firepower, but with vastly different layouts. I'm going to be playing mainly at my FLGS and their tournaments are all 1500-1850 pts so it'll just be small matches for fun.

I know the Siege Assault Vanguard is an odd duck among lists, but I like the shields and durability and think it fits in with the IF fluff. The CAD list I've posted though would be easier to expand into something competitive later on... Anyways I'd like some input on both as far as how competitive they'd likely be and how well they'd work for a newbie.

I'd move the preds you put in the 2nd list into the first one because I think they'll do more work for you. The tach marine should also be replaced with a lib imo because you'll be able to take advantage of the new marine psychic powers. If you take my advice I'd go first list, but if your strictly choosing one or the other I'd go with the second because it has more bodies, cool factor, and as I said earlier preds. Ps maybe try and get some ap 2 into the second list.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/690238/8641849.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/690238/8641849.page GMT
