Orbital strike requested.

Quite Possible, actually. There are three friends that I'll probably playing against: a Tau Player, Witch Hunters Player, and Grey Knights. Orbital Strikes have a high probability of coming down on me.

That's part of the reason I am only packing one ranged anti-tank unit (the other being that most of my ranged anti-tank needs to be repaired!). It isn't likely that I will be dealing with Mech Spam.

I am looking forward to the Grey Knights--- I haven't had a chance to field the 'new' bugs against grey knights. He has told me that he likes to chop them up, so it'll be fun.

My Tau friend has been spared the Hive Fleet threat... until now. He has yet to engage a bug from the 'new' list. Clearly, he's busy defending the 3rd Sphere Expansion, because he pretty much only deals with Space Marines and Guard.

I like the list's style.

Most funny part is that allmost EVERYTHING is rated top tread level for them :D

even though I think the imperials wouldnt rate the ymgarls as top priority simply because they havent been spottet if they use their hybernation rule ;)

yeah, when I was writing that, I was like, "Well, I am writing Extremeous a lot. But, then again, everything in this list the average guardsman would have a better chance playing dead than trying to shoot!"

I tried to make it be more of a list that Space Marines would be the ideal defenders. When I think of the hordes of guants and Warriors, I think of the guns of the imperial guard running out of ammo. When I think of genestealers, I see the emperor's finest struggling to stay alive for 30 seconds...
