2000pt EpicA Imperial Guard list for review

[blackphoenix]

Ok, I'm becoming an EpicA newbie.
I want to build around 2000pts but not sure how effective or fluffy this is. Any comments would greatly be appreciated. Eventually I want to also build an 2000pt list for Eldar, Tau and Chaos once the rules are final. Thanks!

Infantry Company 250pts
Tank Company 750pts
Hydra Flak Tank Company Upgrade 50pts
1x Baneblade Tank Support 200pts
1x Baneblade Tank Support 200pts
2x Thunderbolt Fighters Imperial Navy 150pts
1x Marauder Bomber Imperial Navy 150pts
1x Warhound Titan Standar Weapon Config

Hard to squeeze everything in, but what do you guys think?

You definitely want more footsloggers in there. I'd loose at least one of the baneblades and take a couple of fire support platoons instead. They're as efficient at shooting as marine devastators and half the cost - you cant beat 'em!

In that many points, your oponent is unlikely to be fielding any number of WEs so there's no need to max out on titan killers / WEs yourself. Grunts hold objectives. Take longer to paint.... but they hold objectives

I agree with Paul. At 2000 points, you tank company is going to throw out enough anti-armour shots for you not to take the Baneblades - although if you like the model then that is justification for one. I would take at least two infantry companies with the tank company, and I tend to avoid the WE's as much as possible (unless they are Eldar!). Along a similar line, do you need the Warhound? It will be the obvious target and no matter how powerful can only do a limited amount of damage.

Still, all of that just reflects my own style of play, lots of troops and a fair few tanks and not much else. If it works, then go with it.
