I will have a game against my AM friend in less than 2 weeks. We have had a few games already, and I lost every time, sadly. First 2 games were just trying to learn the rules and we made quite many mistakes. The most recent game we had (1400 pts), I actually did quite a punch into him during turn 1 and 2, but he ended up tabling me because I had a really hard time dealing with 3 leman russ tanks who just shot everything to bits.
He will surely bring a bunch of tanks, and probably a baneblade now that he bought one. I tried to make a list with the knowledge of what he usually brings. Usually some screening squads of guardsmen, Creed, some leman russ and/or basilisk and then this baneblade now.
My biggest issues are always his tanks, his damn orders through vox casters, making him shoot twice with most of his guardsmen every turn and then his screening of tanks making it impossible for me to charge into tanks directly. His big bullgryn squad are usually taken care of by my genestealers and broodlord.
I cannot field a malathrope, mawloc, swarmlord, tyrannocyte or more genestealers as I do not own the models atm.
Any thoughts on this list? I wish I could field a Malanthrope for the hive guard, exocrine and tyrannofex heavy team, but a prime have to take care of that as of now.
