2K pts list of mechanized guard

[silversurfer]

Hi lads,

 

Here is the list that I want to play. Waiting for your critics and feedback to know if it could be competitive.

I have 2 detachments with different custom doctrines to maximize impact or survavibility.

I had some issue with only AP-2 manticores against some lists and updated FW medusas come in handy D6 damage now to back up my artillery firepower. I know I could have field more direct firepower by adding a TKC and more sponsons instead of 2 medusas but depending on the table, the ability to ignore LOS is often usefull.

In 9th, I felt in love with infantry squads riding double heavy flamers chimeras as mid board control and crowd deterent.

I think I would miss an eversor assassin to get ride of enemy's backline threats but I didn't find the way to get those 100 pts without unbalancing the whole list.

 

As secondary, I think I could take "engage on all fronts", probably a "kill all or something" secondary according to the enemy's army list. The last secondary could be the anti-psyker one as I didn't want any psyker in my list.
