"Hey Kirby and co., first time emailer!
At the moment I am trying to finalize my foot Guard list for playing, and I was wondering if you cool dudes could give me some pointers on any grievous errors and such.
Here we go:
CCS - Creed, Camo Cloaks - 180
Ogryns - 6 Ogryns - 250
Platoon A:
PCS - 4 Meltaguns - 70
PIS - Sarge w/ PW, Commissar w/ PW - 105
PIS - Sarge w/ PW - 60
PIS - Sarge w/PW - 60
PIS - Sarge w/PW - 60
HWT - 3 Autocannons - 75
HWT - 3 Autocannons - 75
HWT - 3 Autocannons - 75
Platoon B:
PCS - 4 Meltaguns - 70
PIS - Sarge w/ PW, Commissar w/ PW - 105
PIS - Sarge w/ PW - 60
PIS - Sarge w/PW - 60
PIS - Sarge w/PW - 60
HWT - 3 Lascannons - 75
HWT - 3 Lascannons - 75
HWT - 3 Lascannons - 75
Creed gives orders and sits in cover. The 8 infantry squads blob up as needed and advance into midfield or protect the HWT's as needed, who shoot things a lot. The Ogryns help the blobs if they get in a scrap they can't win.
That comes to 1800, and I'm at a total loss for what to do for Heavies and Fast Attack. Any suggestions are welcome!
In any case, keep up the awesome work and have a nice day!
Al"
Grievous error number 1: playing foot guard :P. I'd be looking to get more Heavy Weapon Teams and put special weapons in the Infantry Platoons. I probably wouldn't have the PCS with mass special weapons but rather a special + heavy where they can sit back and shoot as well. I'm not really a fan of the Ogryns as they are only going to help a certain amount. If you want some extra combat punch get Priests lol. Straken as another CCS or in place of Creed is also a choice you should consider. Not needing to cast Furious Charge as an Order + counter attack is pretty awesome though your heavy weapons aren't as good obviously.
In terms of Heavies and Fast Attack you don't really want much with Foot Guard. You could take some outflanking Scout Sentienls to disrupt your opponent (AC/HKM) or Rough Riders for extra combat support (eh) but I'd just look at getting more bodies + heavy weapons on the floor for your foot madness. You want to maximise the amount of heavy weapons you have so you can actually blow up tanks whilst having the bodies you need to torrent away opponents and take the deaths you will take.
