Mini Blob list (1500pts)

Was hoping to get up the Lisburn league game vs ImperialJ but with being off work sick and all (And my list being saved on work computer along with details). So I decided to throw together a 1500 point blog list for a change to the usual 1850.


The list is:

1500 Pts - Imperial Guard Roster

HQ: Company Command Squad (5#, 180 pts)
   2 Company Command Squad, 49 pts = 2 * 6 (base cost 6) + Camo Cloak 20 + Regimental Standard 15 + w/Mortar 17
      1 Veteran Heavy Weapon Team, 15 pts = (base cost 10) + Mortar x1 5
      1 Lord Castellan Creed, 116 pts

Troops: Infantry Platoon (36#, 320 pts)
   1 Infantry Platoon, 0 pts
      4 Platoon Command Squad, 44 pts = 4 * 6 (base cost 6) + Meltagun x2 20
         1 Platoon Commander, 6 pts
      9 Infantry Squad, 55 pts = 9 * 5 (base cost 5) + Meltagun x1 10
         1 Commissar, 45 pts = (base cost 35 + Power Weapon 10)
         1 Sergeant, 20 pts = (base cost 5 + Melta Bombs 5 + Power Weapon 10)
      9 Infantry Squad, 55 pts = 9 * 5 (base cost 5) + Meltagun x1 10
         1 Sergeant, 20 pts = (base cost 5 + Melta Bombs 5 + Power Weapon 10)
      9 Infantry Squad, 55 pts = 9 * 5 (base cost 5) + Meltagun x1 10
         1 Sergeant, 20 pts = (base cost 5 + Melta Bombs 5 + Power Weapon 10)

Troops: Infantry Platoon (36#, 320 pts)
   1 Infantry Platoon, 0 pts
      4 Platoon Command Squad, 44 pts = 4 * 6 (base cost 6) + Meltagun x2 20
         1 Platoon Commander, 6 pts
      9 Infantry Squad, 55 pts = 9 * 5 (base cost 5) + Meltagun x1 10
         1 Commissar, 45 pts = (base cost 35 + Power Weapon 10)
         1 Sergeant, 20 pts = (base cost 5 + Melta Bombs 5 + Power Weapon 10)
      9 Infantry Squad, 55 pts = 9 * 5 (base cost 5) + Meltagun x1 10
         1 Sergeant, 20 pts = (base cost 5 + Melta Bombs 5 + Power Weapon 10)
      9 Infantry Squad, 55 pts = 9 * 5 (base cost 5) + Meltagun x1 10
         1 Sergeant, 20 pts = (base cost 5 + Melta Bombs 5 + Power Weapon 10)

Troops: Infantry Platoon (48#, 680 pts)
   1 Infantry Platoon, 0 pts
      4 Platoon Command Squad, 44 pts = 4 * 6 (base cost 6) + Meltagun x2 20
         1 Platoon Commander, 6 pts
      9 Infantry Squad, 55 pts = 9 * 5 (base cost 5) + Meltagun x1 10
         1 Commissar, 45 pts = (base cost 35 + Power Weapon 10)
         1 Sergeant, 20 pts = (base cost 5 + Melta Bombs 5 + Power Weapon 10)
      9 Infantry Squad, 55 pts = 9 * 5 (base cost 5) + Meltagun x1 10
         1 Sergeant, 20 pts = (base cost 5 + Melta Bombs 5 + Power Weapon 10)
      9 Infantry Squad, 55 pts = 9 * 5 (base cost 5) + Meltagun x1 10
         1 Sergeant, 20 pts = (base cost 5 + Melta Bombs 5 + Power Weapon 10)
      3 Heavy Weapons Squad, 105 pts = 3 * 20 (base cost 20) + Lascannon x3 45
      3 Heavy Weapons Squad, 75 pts = 3 * 20 (base cost 20) + Autocannon x3 15
      3 Heavy Weapons Squad, 75 pts = 3 * 20 (base cost 20) + Autocannon x3 15
      3 Heavy Weapons Squad, 105 pts = 3 * 20 (base cost 20) + Lascannon x3 45

So what do we have? 3 decent sized blobs who move towards the enemy as fast as they can to get into melta range and combat, separate heavy weapon teams to sit back and shoot up some vehicles and Creed to sit back with his command squad and issue orders to the heavy weapon teams to make them more reliable.

The platoon command squads follow the blobs in (Bar one maybe who site out of sight on an objective) and add some melta fire on targets.

This is a first draft of the list and I'm trying to keep the heavy weapon squads to make sure I don't limit myself to the type of lists I've tried out.
