LOL! at least it's good to know that after 10 years in the hobby, i have learned a few things and know a tactic or two!
well, i find a storm bolter is good for a shooty squad; something that's going to sit back and not get close except maybe to drop say a few flamer templates on someone!
for a really nasty "giant, rampaging death gribbly of 'uber doom" counter, i like massed plasma/melta fire, or else use the 'independant commissars' doctrine and stick him at the very back of a nice big unit of 30 conscripts! it'll take that prince/tyrant/wraithlord/whatever, all day to chew through that many men. plus, a failed moral test simply means one more poor sap gets the emperor's justice!
plus, with that many attacks, you're quite likely to also put a few wounds on the squishier death gribblies like princes/greater daemons/tyrants etc...
cheers!
