I brought my Steel Legion Guard out for the first time and they came out with a bang. The tournament was 1750 points and I took two manticores, a squadron of three Basilisks, a vendetta, and 5 chimeras. My two plasmavet squads were devastatingly effective. Worth their weight in gold. The squadron of Basilisks did amazing. I loved saying, "you have no armor or cover save". The manticores did pretty well. I might try taking more infantry, less chimeras, and more artillery squadrons in the future. Being able to drop pain from a distance is awesome. I can't wait until my steel legion stormtroopers are done. They are going to be the spear tip of my highly mobile army.
At the end of three games I came out with two straight victories followed by a very close game that saw me losing. It was dawn of war with seize ground. If it wasn't dawn of war I would have cleaned up. I beat grey knights with victory points my first game. I beat Orks with victory points my second game (I almost tabled my opponent). For my last game the loss was felt hard as I fell to chaos space marines. My opponent had a very well constructed army list. It could do just about anything. I have to credit him for solid game play and a very good grasp of the rules. I went and picked up third place in the tournament. Good times.
