Hello
I have recently bought a fully painted army of of someone (I'm not a big fan of painting). Now I have calculated it as being around 2500 - 3000 (if it is fully upgraded).
My friend and I are going to play a few games to get me all refreshed on the rules (haven't played since 4th edition).
We are doing a 1750 game and he is bringing his Eldar force (unfortunately he will not tell me the layout of his army). All he is saying is he has a secret weapon that he is boasting can kill a bane blade in one go. I am not sure if he is exaggerating or not, but he sais it cost quite a few points. The only thing I got going for me (besides the best military in the entire imperium) is he has very little knowledge of the guards. Here is a list of what I can bring to the table:
CCS
1 commander with BP/cc
4 veterans
1 veteran with plasma gun
PCS
1 commander with ccw
4 veterans
1 veteran with plasma gun
TROOPS
63 lasgunners
5 plasma gunners
4 grenade Launchers
8 Missile Launcher HWT
5 Lascannon HWT
2 Heavy Bolter HWT
3 Chimera
ELITES
5 Ogryns
11 Storm Troopers (1 melta, 2 plasma)
1 Calladius Assassin
FAST
1 Valkyrie
10 Rough Riders (with Sgt and flamer)
1 Armoured Sentinel
HEAVY:
2 Leman Russ (LC, sponson HB)
1 Leman Russ (HB, sponson HB)
1 Leman Russ (multiple load options)
I forgot to mention these are all steel legion troops and vehicles. I think I will have to buy a commisar as well and probably a psyker although that whole section confuses me, but I hear they are necessary. Not sure I am a big fan of the Ogryns but they came with the army.
Anyway, there it is. Now I need to dumb it all down to 1750 points. I can/will buy a few more models such as HQ., but not a lot more due to the sum I dropped on this army.
Any advise would be nice.
Here is the link to all the pics of the army if anyone is interested.
