IG evolution continues!

Well, to be honest for me, this is a revolution.

Things I have discovered so far:
1) I play like an idiot
2) Small squads die fast & generally don't get to shoot that often
3) LRBTs don't kill enough
4) Killing stuff out of LoS or in cover is a pain in the backside
5) Autocannons need to be taken in far greater numbers than I have been, or not at all

So here we go:

HQ: CCS - 135
2 x plasma, Chimera
Stays back for orders & killing things with plasma - killy enough to do a job, not killy enough early to be a big threat

Elite: Marbo - 65
Hide out of LoS now mo-fo

Troop: Platoon - 845
PCS - 120
3 x melta guns, krak grenades, chimera
Forward melta team
Blob - 385
3 squads, 3 x lascannons, commisar, krak grenades, (2 x chimera given to SWS)
home camper and lascannons
SWS - 65
3 x melta guns (chimera from blob)
Forward melta team
SWS - 65
3 x melta guns (chimera from blob)
Forward melta team
HWS - 105
3 x lascannons
more campers, more lascannons
HWS - 105
3 x lascannons
more campers, more lascannons

Troop: platoon - 390
PCS - 120
3 x melta guns, krak grenades, chimera
Forward melta team
Blob - 270
3 squads, 3 x flamer, commisar, 4 x power axes
Run along with forward melta teams

Heavy: LR Executioner - 205
Lascannon, the big plasma gun thing
Run behind bolb with forward melta teams, or stay back as appropriate

Heavy: LR Executioner - 205
Lascannon, the big plasma gun thing
Run behind bolb with forward melta teams, or stay back as appropriate

Total - 1845
12 Scoring units
5 chimeras (4 melta teams)
2 AV14
93 infantry

Anti-tank:
9 lascannons at 3 targets
4 melta teams
Russes with lascannons & 3 x S7 AP2

Not convinced by the russes, but I think they'll work better than LRBTs...

The idea is obviously to throw half my army wildly at my opponent giving a number of threats that can't be ignored, while he other half of the army sit back and shout PEW PEW PEW at the top of their voices.

Can it work?
When in deadly danger
When beset by doubt
Run in little circles
Wave your arms and shout
- parody of the litany of command

93 models is game killer all byitself.. your setup and movement turns will take 30 minutes. Do you really have the patience?? I suggest you model your vendettas IN GAME it will be quiker than watching you push all those guys around tactically carefully skillfully slowly.
1x4 unit blob with power weapons.. all HWS and a mech vet at back can hold.. then have some faster mobility with thhe 300 you just saved (and 2 hours per game)
Maybe even take HQ awesome.. just to make your blob scary.
Barely even lurking..
