Hey! Just a heads up: since you’re new, check out resources for beginners online; they can really help you get to grips with the game. You’ve got the basic structure nailed, but keep an eye on army composition as you plan future builds.
Looks like you’ve got a solid start, but your list might struggle a bit at 1000 points mainly because of the costs of your units. All your choices are good on their own, but you might not have enough versatility. Without units that can infiltrate or be more mobile, you’ll likely end up holding back while waiting for the enemy to come to you. You’ve got great shooting and some melee options, but it could be tough to manage primary objectives when you don’t have leaders boosting your units. What are your favorite units from this list? Let’s see how we can tweak it.
I haven’t bought anything yet but I’m aiming for a hard-hitting, aggressive build with Guilliman. I want a high risk, high reward vibe while still being effective!
This list might be solid for a 2000 point army but pulling it off in 1000 with Bobby G could be a lot. Some might see it as a little cheeky to run him in such a low point game, considering he can dominate the field! Adjust your game plan accordingly and remember to balance your units well for primary objectives.
You need leaders to help buff your squads, which is key to maximizing your army’s potential.
