Your list seems uninspired. Some points that come to mind:
- I suggest putting some meltabombs into your combined squad, or krak grenades. Were I to fight against your list, my armoured...
Renegade has summarised my wall of text from a few pages back in a superbly abbreviated format. Guard are no longer viewed as "easy beats" (not that they ever were, imho) and are thus chosen as...
Termagants. Has anyone ever tried putting these guys in area terrain, or on a slope? They don't even stand up on flat ground most of the time. And they have slotta-bases so you can't put big, fat...
I'm going to try and defuse the argument some here, sorry if it doesn't work.
I've been playing Guard (of all colours and flavours) for a few years now, since a few months after the brick'o'cheese...
Generally speaking, the 5th edition rules are efficient and effective. I would tweak around a few things for 6th edition.
1. Provide equivalent access to "standard" wargear like spotlights for...
Make small arms shooting more effective! If you lose men to incoming fire there should be negatives to your morale check depending on how badly you were mauled, how many directions the fire is...
Probably I'm just being inefficient, but for Sentinels designed for outflanking I won't go anywhere other than a Lascannon or Multilaser. Often a HK missile is tacked on regardless of the primary...
Damn man, 22 a month?! Do your dice wear out after 6 months? I'm lucky if I can manage once a week... :(
I appears to me that, particularly with the Codex: CSM and Codex: Daemons, a lack of self-restraint is a significant problem. People go running around making game-effective combinations "because the...
I used to think I was unlucky too, constantly moaning about how I failed so many saves or couldn't move through cover to save my life. Opponents would, in hindsight, treat this fairly politely. ...
"Better" is very subjective... Do you mean better to look at? Better to model and/or paint? Better against Grots? Better at beating in the engine housing on a Leman Russ? Better at surviving a...
Hmmm....a few spring to mind. Perhaps the one that makes me giggle the most still was way way back in the dark ages of 2nd edition. I was playing Eldar vs Chaos (marines). As it was a friendly...
I'm surprised no-one has mentioned being able to reach units hiding behind other units yet. Say, for example, your opponent is playing Guard and hiding his command squad with 4 Plasma guns behind a...
