| let's see... first off, lose the carapace armour on you senior officer as it only makes him an easy target due to the mixed armour rules! (a canny opponent will snipe him quite easily!) just make due with your flak armour and absolute faith in the emperor!  for your 2nd officer, i'd drop the plasma pistol simply because it's an expensive loss when his gun blows up... vet sergeants on the other hand are great candidates for plasma pistols as it's only a total 22pts investment! (and doesn't cost you your prescious iron discipline!!!) personally i'd swap one set of autocannons for an anti-tank squad all with rocket launchers as you seem quite light in the anti-tank department... the rockets have a bit more punch, but can still take on enemy infantry formations should your opponent not have any real armour! also keep in mind, mortars are good fun!  i also go with the grenade launcher & heavy bolter combo for infantry... seems to be the standard and it works quite well! i'd up your sergeant's to vets though, if even only to get a few bolter/bolt pistols in your squads... sometimes a single ap5 shot can make a difference! i know it's the combo that comes in the box, but honestly, storm troopers/grenadiers really can't mix weapons well... paired weapons work that much better with these boys! considering their high BS and better save, they're prime candidates for carrying plasma! (i include some =I= stormies solely for their 2 plasma guns!) finally, the russ... swap the lascannon for a 3rd heavy bolter. these guys excel at anti-infantry! leave the tank hunting to your support squads and/or sentinels, grenadiers w/meltas, hardened vets and such! sorry for shredding your list to no end! cheers!

Luckily, I have enough models to change just about anything. I'll be buying 2 Karskin special weapon blisters next week, so I'll have 2 meltaguns and 2 plasmaguns to use soon. Once I get another Karskin squad, I'll kit out one squad with melaguns, one squad with plasma guns. As far as the carpace for my Senior Officer, I added it as I had the points to spare.  Thanks for the imput. I'll post an updated list soon... ~fearlessgod~

  | Intesting list... Personally drop the smoke launchers from the chimera and add heavy bolter sponsons - best buy in the codex. Quite a nice balanced list overall though. Able to tackle most 1000point lists rather nicely. |

| i'd lose the psykers... they're just far too random in my book. otherwise they need some serious point allocation in the form of a shiny force weapon & honorifica so you death stick someone! (granted it's likely as predictable as the rough rider assault, but hey! a guard arym with a character killer?!!) if you really want psychic goodness, (and let's face it, who doesn't like zaping things?! ) then go for a cheap allied inquisitor... a 2-wound inquisitor with scourging and a psychic hood will set you back only 60pts total and an elites slot! (or just 40pts if you don't want/need the hood...)not too bad for a guy who can effectively fry a small unit all on his own! or you can go for holocaust, (daemonhunters only power), and use the inquisitor to thin out any nasty hoards that reach your lines... and yes, if anything, find the extra 3 pts somewhere to add on heavy bolter sponsons to that russ! it's rather depressing for your opponent to destroy your big cannon, only for you to then throw out 9 shots at him! cheers!
