Hey again,
I posted one of these on the Dark Crusade hints part about the new armies and I'm going to post here with tips for Imp Guard...
1. Don't just use Guardsmen on their own. They have the lowest morale out of any units and will get mowed down by anything that moves and fires a gun. Use Kasrkins and Ogryns often but don't use them as an alternative to Guardsmen. Like the Space Marine Terminators and The Chaos Obliterators they are made to be support units, supporting the units lower than them. Also uprgade half the guardsmen with plasma pistols and half with grenade launchers and add Comissars to to the guardsmen squads. Use Hellhounds and Chimera's to eliminate any excess enemy units and Leman Russes to take down the threat from vehicles. Hellhounds take down structures easily aswell.
2. Know Thy Enemy. If you are up against ranged units (Eldar for example) the use Basilisks to bombard their front lines and cause confusion and chaos. With the enemy not knowing what the heck has hit them you can send in Guardsmen with medium or long range wargear to finish them off before sending the whole army in to end the war. If up against all-rounders (Space Marines for example) then use common snese. If they are using fast attack assault marines use ranged weaponry to take them out before they reach you and cause any serious harm. If they use slow, lumbering units like Terminators then use artillery (Basilisks) and more ranged weaponry. If they use Vehicles then bring in the Ogryns and Leman's. The Leman's distract their attention whilst dealing massive damage and the Ogryns deal more damage with powerful melee attacks. If they use Space Marines then use Kasrkins and Guardsmen to deal with them quickly and efficiently. Don't use vehicles unless they are clear of all rocket launchers. If they use close combat (Orks for example) then use all the ranged weaponry you have before bringing in the Ogryns to beat the heck out of them.
3. Don't use Basilisks for non-ranged armies. They will forever pelt your units with artillery damaging both sides in health but yourself aswell with morale which can be a massive pain. Be weary of Leman Russ shots also.
If you want to request anything to be added or just want to comment please do so at your own leasure, I will respond when I can. Thanks for reading. Also read my posts on Dark Crusade and the original DoW if youw ant. Thanks again.
