Thinking of a new IG list - 1750pts for UK GT

Postby KInG » Wed Feb 23, 2011 11:27 pm

I reckon LH will love this coz it's got 5 chimeras in it:

HQ:
Creed and sgt. Kell with 3x plasmaguns in chimera with OotF and Astropath.

Troops:
10 vererans with 3x plasmaguns 1x lascannon and PF in chimera
10 vererans with 3x plasmaguns 1x lascannon and PF in chimera
10 vererans with 3x plasmaguns 1x lascannon and PF in chimera
10 vererans with 3x plasmaguns 1x lascannon and PF in chimera
10 vererans with 3x meltaguns and PF
10 vererans with 3x meltaguns and PF

Fast Attack:
Vendetta with HB Spons
Vendetta with HB Spons

Not sure if I had to tweak this a little to get to 1750pts. Coz I've listed this from memory. If so I would have dropped some power fists from sgt.s

Ppl thought my other list was a bit tough. I think this beats it easily.

According to a quick play with army builder, I make that list 1655, so you have a bit more to play with still.

Kreed & kell are pointless as you can't give orders to troops in chimeras. Therefore you'll only be ordering your melta vets who will be away from your lines.

I think that's enough points to get you another vendetta...

Then if you take the lascannons off all your chimera choices then you get enough for another melta vet squad to go in that vendetta.

I would also make sure that your chimeras are the multilaser/heavy flamer varient otherwise you'll struggle with ork hordes.

Good starting template though...

EDIT: And you have some spare points - add in as many hydras as you can...

EDIT2: Powerfists?!?!?!? Ha ha ha ha. Dump them, if/when they get charged they're dead anyway. Get MOAR GUNZZZ!

EDIT3: You already have 6 troops choices, so get another CCs with tri melta rather than the vet squad above.

EDIT4: Do you want to run our game at the meat up at 1750 to get some practice in?

I think you army v's mine at 1750 would be interesting Nige.

My first draft 1750 is:

CCS - 180
3 x plasma guns (umming & ahhing here for melta...)
Ootf
Chimera

Stormtroopers - 105
5 men, 2 melta

Veteran squad - 155
3 x melta guns
Chimera

Veteran squad - 155
3 x melta guns
Chimera

Veteran squad - 170
3 x plasma guns
Chimera

Infantry platoon - 355
PCS - 3 x flamer
20 man blob - 2 x autocannon, commissar
20 man blob - 2 x autocannon, commissar

Infantry platoon - 210
PCS - 3 x flamer
20 man blob - 2 x missile launcher, commissar

Banewolf - 135
smoke launchers

Hellhound - 135
Smoke launchers

Hydra - 75

Hydra -75

Total - 1750 points
Infantry - 108 models
Tanks - 8

I've got more tanks, more men, more heavy weapons, more melta guns, more flamer templates, and more scoring units. But I think it'll come down to who goes first!

PCS - 3 x flamer
PCS - 3 x flamer
tell me (slowly) again why when they don't have a transport you wouldn't rather have
6x24"str6 for anti light tank/ 6x24 str 3 blasts for anti horde.. you just get so many more chances to shoot..I don't get why the internet is so loaded on flamers.

I figure with 60man blobs.. you should either be looking at creeds "I can beat green tides" upgrade.. or dropping one and taking more heavy slot. But thats just me getting bored of watching all those models having to setup
(pull your leg out and PM your 6k list :P..)

Also gearing up 250 points is not your super invincible 1500, ....and guard vs guard :roll: Its nice to see you all agree with me in your actions.

Well, it depends on who I'm fighting...

The flamers can be used as a cheap "oh cock there's a sternguard squad deepstruck there" - shed load of wounds later they aren't there.

If I'm fighting horde then I'll donate the melta gun/ plasma gun squads' transport to them to do some midfield roasting.

I admit that the toss up between GLs and flamers is tight. But I have enough multilasers, autocannons and heavy bolters that another 24" range S6 (on BS 3) x 6 isn't going to make all that much difference. Whereas flamers x 3 can cause a lot of wounds which are difficult to space out (as opposed to small blast S3). Hence the flamers...

Make sense?

Who's your £1 on at 1750?

At 1500 with the list you practised with for 50 games straight... it was on you to win.
Now king is chickening backwards (as normall) because as I (and the web) says only guard can give guard a fight..
and your just blobbing stuff on...I think I'm going to end up forking the cash over to king.
But it would be rude of me to change which horse I'm backing :D (i'll just have the shotgun and glue factory on speeddial)

Pm me your 6k

LH let's just keep our game at 1500 PTs. I'll be bringing one of my gt lists. But I'm not saying which so u stick to your normal line up.
It will be either DA; CD; IG; SM.
