Moving forwards

So based on the time I have left before Astronomi-con Vancouver '09 (now visible in the handy-dandy counter on the right), and the rumours that have been floating about the internet, specifically the reduced cost for basic guardsmen, I went back and modified my army list. It's reprinted below, but as a summary I increased the two core Platoons to four squads and a Fire Support Squad with Heavy Bolters, and the third Platoon is made up of the Orphans.

Meanwhile, the Forgeworld artillery, the Thudd Guns and Medusas, have been dropped in favour of two Leman Russes and a pair of Mortar Support Squads. This still leaves me slightly short on points, but I expect that my rumour-based estimations are going to be under in some places and over in others, so I'll just have to paint extra stuff to cover the eventualities.


Anyways, here's the list:

  1. You will lose!

    What no wonder tanks? No Elites at all? How can you pass up the new snipers, they seem pretty spiffy. Also a couple of Sentinals with their scout move would be tactically advantageous. Sentinals are ruled to have a "hand" in Astronomi-con I believe.

    I so gotta get painting. I have to average about a model every two days if I want an entirely shiney or mostly shiney new army. I also gotta make terrain.

    We still on for Friday and Saturday?

  2. Nope, no wonder tanks and no Sentinels. I have this wonderful thing called a "theme". ;)
