I'm about to play a new 1000 points guard list against an immortal/wraith based army.
CCS
2 vet squads with plasmaguns
2 leman russ battle tanks
1 leman russ destroyer with plasma sponsons
Vendetta
I've been having trouble with necrons, but now I think my list will be able to do some damage.
leman russ Vanquisher not destroyer***

Do you have pre-set missions or anything? Will 2 vet squads be enough to hold the objectives?
In a 1000 point game as guard vs necrons, your first target should be the wraiths. They will kill your entire army single handed if enough make it to your lines. So to get through their 3++ and 2 wounds you need to bring more shots. Try using Leman Russ punishers for this purpose. Also give your vets foward sentries with autocannon and 3 snipes. They should be able to out range the immortals and take shots back using their improved cover saves. A squad with those upgrades is only like 86 points, which is cheaper than a plasma squad.

it's going to be an all out table match.

I thought snipers were generally useless?

What makes you think that?

Plasma sponons are a bit pricey, do you think it would be better to take autocannons or something for your vet squads instead?
>>44358062
the necron guy I'm playing doesn't have much armour, after taking out his big guns I'd like something to do damage to TEQ tier infantry.

Rereading their rules you are probably right, I haven't used them for several editions myself but their rules seem quite good and really cheap.

Wouldn't happen to have a banewolf would you?
>>44358123
sadly not, this will come at 1500 for sure.

Will your Vendetta and Vanquisher be overkill for whatever armour he is taking?
>>44358143
maybe, but having the Vendetta able to finish off any of his 6 man immortal squads is always good after the armour has been dealt with.
