Why can't you charge with it? it's a pistol, not a plasma gun... they're not rapid fire... true. haha  |

Yeah, more vindicator- but that's why ONE of the squads has infernus pistols.
The banner is only the squad Ray, not a bubble.
And trust me- plasma pistols will help, I ran SG before and it felt like I really needed something to help soften a unit up even barely before charging the next turn.
PLASMA IS FOR INFANTRY / MC. ONLY WHEN DESPERATE SHOULD YOU EVER SHOOT IT AT ARMOR.
Caps and in bold since you guys keep seeming to miss the fucking point of plasma.

Just in case if you missed it in the first post there guys.
PLASMA IS FOR INFANTRY / MC. ONLY WHEN DESPERATE SHOULD YOU EVER SHOOT IT AT ARMOR.
I've said it for seven posts now and all you guys keep doing is going back to how ineffective it is against armor value.

He needs to be able to handle vehicles, and if he's 12'' away he's not charging someone, hence the plasma pistols. Plus he can actually shoot 26 plasma shots at flyers if required.What army wide buff does the banner give Ray? The banner only gives +1 attack to the unit it's in and a morale bubble for rerolls, but the entire army is fearless... In either case once you understand that upgrading an elite army too much shoots you in the foot you can start building a list that is going to hopefully be able to handle the myriad of infantry spam lists that are common now in 6th edition... This is not what I read up there but in this case I agree with you its for MC/infantry |

The first bit was in reference to the HG and their melta weapons. The second sentence was in reference to desperation against flyers - which is what I said. When desperate use it on vehicles.

Let me preface this by saying the honour guard version is more competitive and a much better idea.
finished five sanguinary guard today... going with the heaven and hell theme... going with death company... the theme cannot be denied... it has me now!!!!
So here is the (probably) final version:
HQ:
Dante (leads one of the double infernus squads - has priest with combi)
Astorath the grim (leads DC because he makes them awesome)
Troops:
10 death company - jump packs
5 Sanguinary guard - power fist, two infernus pistols
5 Sanguinary guard - power fist, two infernus pistols
5 Sanguinary guard - two plasma pistols, power fist
5 Sanguinary guard - two plasma pistols, power fist
Elite:
Sanguinary priest - jump pack, power fist
Sanguinary priest - jump pack, power fist
Sanguinary priest - combi-melta, jump pack
2000 points
35 models
