Post subject:  3K Guard added marine list as Op force

wanting to get into 6mm gaming, epic looks like a fun rule set the other I have is future war commander, the idea being I'll build 2 lists that I can use in both sets, 1 will be guard, the other either Eldar or Tau I suspect

doing this mostly as a modelling project, nay suggestion on good terrain tutorials would be a great help

figure this will make a good starting point for the guard:

http://www.brigademodels.co.uk/6mmSF/Ru ... C-101.html

yes they don't look much like russes, but i like them, if there is a list where the tanks are more tank like I would happily consider it

suspect I'll have to add some infantry, which I'll get from DRM

the list based on what's there and a few things added don't want to spent too much more than 50 pounds

Regimental HQ
Supreme Commander, 12 Infantry, 7 Chimera
Fire Support Platoon (4 Fire Support)
Hydra
650

Storm Trooper Platoon
8 Storm Troopers
Valkyrie Transport
350


Tank Company
Leman Russ 9x
Vanquisher
Hydra
700

Deathstrike Missile Battery
2 Deathstrike Missile Launchers
200

Artillery Company
Basilisk6x
Manticore3x
650

Orbital Support
Lunar Class
150

Vulture Squadron
4 Vultures
300

3000

an ok starting point? how long will a 3k game take, what size game can I get away with on a 4x4 table?

Ok, first things first - When you add the Fire Support to the Reg HQ you will need to add Chimeras as well to keep them transported and up with the reset of the formation.

You are going to be very light on activations and I would recommend splitting the Artillery Company into an Infantry Company and two Artillery Batteries, the increased cost can be off set by dropping the Fire Support. Otherwise the list is fine.

For a 4x4 table I would look at no more than 2000pts as the lack of space can become a problem for some armies. This being said some players will try and force you to play over a very narrow front as this suits them the best of all.

Have a go and enjoy the game.

You should do 1 infantry company with a single hydra so they can garrison. Possibly give them some fire support so they can go on overwatch and throw some extra shells down range.
