Hey all. So I'm wracking my brain trying to think up an IG list that wont get kicked in the nuts by comp yet be decent. Not to sound jaded but it seems the only way to get a good comp score with IG is lots of random crap that you somehow are going to make work well. Here's what I've got!

So yeah I dunno how well its gonna work. I'm planing to run it kinda like a gun line and vs aggressive armies reserve most of the units. Also would you consider this a soft list but effective or just dumb? haha

Thanks!

I think you should be fine on a comp score. You don't have any of the most powerful units in the codex, i.e. Manticores, Vendettas, and vets with three special weapons and no other upgrades. You also have a couple units that are widely viewed as unoptimized.

I'd say you could cut out a few of the non-optimal upgrades (like the plasma pistol on the JO) and maybe the ratlings and add in another infantry squad or two. I'd also suggest both heavy weapons teams be auto cannons. I think those are changes towards optimization that wouldn't harm you on comp.
