    If you swapped out the plasma guns in one of the vet squads for melta and dropped the plasma from the CCS, and dropped a Hellhound, I think you might just be able to squeeze in a Demolisher or...

    With Straken, you might want to try more troops - specifically more blob squads. Otherwise, just drop him. I'm going to try him out too, but I think I'm going to try him with 2 x 30 man blobs.

    Actually... "Corpsegrinda" is a type of ork battlefortress.

    Anyway, I am a HUGE Nurgle fan myself (I have like 5000+pts of Nurgle Daemons).

    My first suggestion here is one I'm SHOCKED no one...

    I think it's pretty great. What I'm not getting is why you mix and match your veterans. Just do 3 x Melta in each squad. You can drop the (useless) grenade launchers if you need more points.

    I like it - except that the Wraithguard and Farseers feel out of place. Better to treat that unit as Necron Immortals or Terminators or something. Or even drop it and replace with Praetorians (use...

    2K Straken IG

    Hello All -

    This is really just a list I want to play with, rather than an out-and-out attempt to be competetive. Does anyone have any suggestions though? I feel like it might be lacking some...

    I like it too. My only gripes are:

    1) Blobbed platoons work way better as bubble-wrap. With a CCS to give orders, 30+ guys with heavy weapons will be more accurate than BS4.

    2) You've got...

    Blobs do one thing that vets don't: win combats. It might shock you, but a comissar and three sergeants with power weapons nets 12 powered attacks. They'll beat tactical squads, bike squads even...

    I'm also conflicted about Demolishers vs. Standard Leman Russ. It's becoming increasingly my opinion that the range is more useful than the higher strength.

    Agree with Chumbalaya. Blob squads are as close as IG will get to tactical squads: survivable, good in combat and good at shooting. 30+ guys with 3 x heavy weapons and power weapons can use orders...

    I like Chumbalaya's ideas, it's a good idea to listen to him. However, I would tell you to keep the Vendetta (so that you have three aircraft) and not opt for double Medusas. I usually find Medusas...

    I think this list looks a little fragile. Only ~60 guys in 2500pts?

    Why don't you drop all those Chimeras, mount up your Vets and use the spare points for a big platoon?

    Also, drop each and...

    I mean, the list is fine - but I think that it's a little too fragile. Vets die so quick - rope in some blob platoons instead.

    Yeah, I like the above better. Having one less plasma gun won't matter too much - especially once you start taking casualties.

    Suggestion #0, the over-suggestion, is to play the exact same list like 100 times before you change anything. Don't shuffle units...

    I am just curious - why has there been the sudden shift to Vendettas? Seems like it would be tougher to destroy hordes etc.

    I really favor this list. It's not quite my speed (I prefer 2 x Daemon Prince + Greater Demon), but it looks strong.

    My only advice would be to try and work it to 2000pts even and to swap out rot...

    I mostly like this list, but there are a few little issues:

    1. Why double flamers on the Chimera? Is that how you have it modeled? Multi-laser turret and heavy flamer hull is the way to go. You...

    1. You could always dropa vendetta for a valkyrie with rocket pods - will help bigtime against hordes.

    2. Multilaser + Flamer ALWAYS.

    3. Mix up weapons so you get 3 x melta + 3 x flamer.
