I have zero knowledge of guard. I just want to convert and paint a big ol force of traitor guardsmen. I toyed with a list that was fully mobilized, but I think I'd rather have a bunch of guys on the field. $375 US to buy all the models I need.

Until your army gets up close, you have a very limited ability to take out tanks. Much as I like to see massed infantry, they are a sitting duck for most of us guard players!

Ordnance templates will have a field day, so will anyone with hellhounds or punisher canons! Watch out for mortars as well, they will hurt you!

Its like my old infantry army plan I had, couldn't be bothered with that one!

As Digits said, lack of Long Range anti tank. Take about 3 Lascannon Heavy Weapon teams (9 lascannons altogether) and you'll be fine.

Cheers,

Well no woories all the squad leaders need just a demo charge with some handy bounch of grandes like Joker had under his suit... xD

Well never liked the idea of using psykers, more better to bring some barrage wep, it'S always cool for anything aginst. Hunter killers for vehicles is pritty fine, if you the defender and you got enough space to hide ur vehicles. First turn hunter killers, and if it's take out some big bad tanky than LoL time.

I think you should make the HQ from less points. The infantry squads in my pov too much costs, and why power weps? Instead power fists, hits lasts but doubled strength and has a chance to kill walker or anything else.

For Heavy Support a barrage unit would be cool, basiliskus, or if you want to bring with ya tansk than bring three with ya without sponsos, but two of them lascannon and one with haevy bolter, mounted heavy stubber and the battle cannons. And you got three vehicle that could solve a lot of problems.

Also for cheap points some penal legion squads. Just for target dummies, until ur real power get in sight to shoot out the enemy from it'S defence.

Well actually you can't find a proper list that could be cool against all type of enemys and tactics, soo just aim on the mobility and various tatctics, also cool if ya make weapons changable, it spare ya money too.

Hope that helped a bit. And good luck!

I put the psykers in there mostly for fluff. I really want to convert up a cool looking unit of Slaaneshi woman psykers. I went with power weapon because I figure my heavy weapons platforms are going to be all the anti-tank that I need since I'll be sitting back and shooting with most of the army.
