Ok, tactics question. I'm relatively new to the Imperial guard (I'm a closet Tau player) <ACKEM!> So! for you IG generals out there which would you recommend for a transport, Chimera or Valkyrie?
This is what I've come up with and maybe you can help me out with this...
1. Valkyrie: Pro- better side armor, twinlinked las cannons and missile pods, deep strike, skimmer, fast, heavy bolter sponsons.
Con- more expensive points wise, $52 a model, pain to lug around without paying another $30 in precut foam.
2. Chimera: Pro- less expensive points wise, $28 a model, easier to carry around, easier to paint and assemble
Con- Not a fast vehicle, can only fire las shots and heavy bolter shots, has 10 side and back armor, can't move 24" flat out, fly, or land on terrain.
These are what I'm dealing with in regards to tactics and building my army up. Please let me know if you have any comparative tactical and building advice.
Danke.
