So here are my 3 "final" (subject to change LOL) drafts of my Mech Guard Lists.

1500pts

HQ
1. Company Command Squad

x3 Meltaguns, Chimera w/ Multilaser, Heavy Flamer

Troops
1. Vet Squad

x3 Meltaguns, Demolitions, Chimera w/ Multilaser, Heavy Flamer

2. Vet Squad

x3 Meltaguns, Chimera w/ Multilaser, Heavy Flamer

3. Vet Squad

Basically like the 1500pt list but with more vehicles and a Psyker Battle Squad (WTF?).

The 2000pt list is the 1850 one with either 2 more Hydras or a Medusa w/ enclosed crew compartment.

Comments on the lists are welcome!

Just an observation (I haven't even played with my IG yet, so I can't offer a constructive critique of the effectiveness of the lists) But there's lots of heat based weaponry; flamers and Meltas. It'd be an interesting theme to model your force around, utilising flame-red camo and the like, maybe generating ideas for their homeworld and the regment's name. Something to do with dragons, since you have lots of flame and fire and even Hydras! That'd be cool. Well, boiling hot...

And everyone says Meltas are the new awesome, and flamres are something you can't go wrong with. I really wanted to include hydras in my list, and Valks and vendettas are generally considered, from what I can garner, to be versatlie and very cost effective for what they do.

I like it, it's got lots of long range death, up close death, and plenty of armor.

I mean it looks good... but I hope your friends play like you do
