Holy!

toomanylettersbatman.

honestly though, i don't see the point of regular guardsmen in chimeras. its almost like your taking guardsmen just to take chimeras. chimeras filled with a bs 3 lascannon and grenade launcher.

The rest of the army is Ok, and i guess there is something to be said for hiding all your troops inside metal bawkses... but.... i guess i just don't get it.

lots of tanks gonna look awesome on the table though!

the funny thing is that this is not all my tanks.....or infantry.

I still think that reg infantry still have a place in transports. I still need to upgrade some infantry to have better wps other than grenade launchers as this army of mine has been around since 3rd. but grenade launchers can still do dmg so it is what they have.

I am also still thinking of selling all my IG just have to find the rest of my sentinels and infantry

You *have* all that stuff? Not just spitballing?

You could bring it to the Tourney on the 12th!

I could, and it is all painted I think except for one or two

There isn't even a paint requirement! It'd be neat to see a meched up list on the table.

simplified for 67% less eye-bleed

looking at the rules for this tournament on the 12th...I do not think it would stand up to much unless I fielded my supers as well.....I would have to find a spot for my baneblade or my 6 other russes for this tournament.

drop your elites and your fast and you get another 374pts. drop the russ and you got 600pts for a super heavy. 

leave the russ and convert your big guard unit into something smaller like your veteran unit in a flyer, and you might have the points to play a Russ Rush.

barring that, knowing what you own, you could field an Armoured Battle Company and just field all your Russ's and a super heavy.
