I'm planning to do another army before Christmas but I'm looking for one that I won't need vehicles because I'm pretty tired or painting all the SM and AM vehicles!

Any suggestions?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9062227.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9062227.page GMT Armies that don't use a lot of vehicles? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9062230.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9062230.page GMT Armies that don't use a lot of vehicles? Ad mech, -> only has that spider bot and those chicken walkers.
Necrons usually only use a few vehicles.
Space wulfs can just go wulfy wulf wulf on wulfs with no vehicles.

The new CSM legion rules surely allow some decent builds without vehicles. I think Night Lords with a daemon prince and lots of bikes and raptors could be effective without transports

Foot heavy imperial guard were a thing, I don't know if they still are but in theory hordes of guardsmen with plenty of heavy/special weapons wastes the opponent's heavy hitters when all they have to shoot/assault are T3 cheap bodies]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9062249.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9062249.page GMT Re:Armies that don't use a lot of vehicles?
Orks can be built using no vehicles. You just would have to buy a lot of Mek guns and a ton of boys. And bikes.

They can be effective entirely without vehicles up to 1000pts, though I have yet to try going full infantry in a larger game (I only have so many models)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9062300.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9062300.page GMT Armies that don't use a lot of vehicles?

Tau doesn't use their vehicles very often you can go suit heavy which deepstrike and thrust move around the board. Their regular infantry can foot slog just fine as they have good shooting range and prefer to stay back and shoot over going in close.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9062980.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9062980.page GMT Armies that don't use a lot of vehicles? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9062984.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9062984.page GMT Armies that don't use a lot of vehicles?

Only if you have allies. Scions alone have to enter in deepstrike due to the short range of the weapons. This means that you cannot deploy few squads without transports in the open, you will be shots to bits while you look for a better fire position. If you do not deploy squads "wasting" them in this way, you auto-lose because of the reserve rules.

So is either tauroxes (with or without scions inside) + deepstrikers, or allies + deepstrikers: and is better both (and is still a struggle). ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9063029.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9063029.page GMT Armies that don't use a lot of vehicles? SW, Eldar, White Scars/Ravenwing, and AdMech are probably the best at it when looking at forces that could take vehicles but have chosen not to. Daemon/CSM fusion (KDK, TSons, more after Traitor Leigons lands) can probably make a go of it but when your line units are so expensive I'm skeptical about not spending the 40pts or so to give Thousand Sons three extra ablative wounds.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9063449.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9063449.page GMT Armies that don't use a lot of vehicles?

Are you sure .... : \

I haven't seen a single foot slogging ork list do well outside those silly green tide formations since the new codex.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9063482.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/710285/9063482.page GMT Armies that don't use a lot of vehicles?

I have never tried it but apparently an all foot guard army can be quite good.
If you are going to go with no vehicles maybe have some DS elements to grab forward objectives.
