    Default 1,850 IG tourny face smashy!! (revised)

    Hey there all! I posted a list about a month about that was supposed to be my mech IG list of doom. Unfortunately other things have prevented me from getting the funds to get the hydras that I originally wanted for the list so I've had to make some tweeks to it. So here it is and any brutal commentary is welcome!

    Vostroyan 77th First Born Regiment

    Hq-
    Co command squad
    Grenaide Launcher x3
    Officer of the fleet
    Chimera w/multi laser & heavy flamer
    -170pts

    Troops

    Veteran squad
    Melta
    Plasma x2
    Chimera w/ml & hf
    -165pts

    Vendetta w/3 TLLC

    Leman Russ Demolisher w/hull las cannon and sponson plasma cannons

    Leman Russ Demolished w/hull las cannon and sponson plasma cannons
    -220pts

    Leman Russ Exterminator w/3 Heavy Bolters
    -170pts

    -1,850

    The conditions I have are that I want to keep it pure mech, I can only add maybe one more Chimera, the specials are about all I have to work with as far as melta and plasmas go (converted alot of my flamers into meltas cuz GW forgot to make a Vostroyan melta I guess lol). Other than that I'm pretty flexible! Keep in mind I'm taking it to a GT in about a week and a half so its ment to be a hard take all comers list.

    Fire Away!
    Thanks!

    I'd drop the plasma guns on the demolishers, and try a devil dog and hellhound combo - pop armour with dog burn those inside

    Helping the competition eh? Screw it, my IG army isn't done and I want to see them do well.

    I'd definitely go melta over plasma on your Troop units, it's cheaper, more effective against armor and you don't really get much use for plasma anyway.

    I'd go 2 Vendettas since you need to bust armor from range.

    GLs are kinda meh, wastes your BS4 I think. Meltas here too.

    Demolishers just need a heavy flamer in the hull, you want them mobile.

    Exterminators are an overpriced Hydra, sad to say. If you wanted to have fun, add Pask for a boat load of S8 and S6 shots to threaten transports. I'd prefer an Eradicator though, to nuke bad guys in cover.

    Leftover points can go towards an allied Inquisitor with Mystics (buy a cheapo Chimera for one of the Vendy squads and toss them inside.
