2 Imperial Guard Anti Infantry Support Squads with 3 heavy bolters. Your Eldar would be dealt with quite nicely in a few turns

Leman Russ Punisher Squadron all with hvy bolters.
You can't hurt front or side, and I don't care what cover saves you get, you'll roll those 1's eventually.
If you meet a bear named Sanctjud in the tavern, don't get into his van for candy.  I did once....it's sticky, salty, and really not very nice. :(

@Light, that doesn't work well.  Swooping hawks are not that great when DSing in or starting on the baord, they are just asking to be blown away.

)_______________

Vs. Swooping hawks....

Grey Knight Purgation Squad with 4 psycannons and max squad.  Stay in a building and wait for you to come in.  They out range you and out shoot you.

If not they can advance and take your incoming shots and return fire with 12 BS4, Str 6 Ap 4 shots, on top of storm bolters, just in case if you are in cover.

Deep strike behind cover, pop out blow up the Vendettas sky leap out, drop back in drop grenade packs on the veterans and shoot them up.

I just run a land raider crusader up to your knights and spam assault cannon shots until you die, you cant even glance my 14 all sides armour.

@you can DS behind cover, but it's not guarenteed, vendettas can stay more than 24" away from you.... how do you
"pop out blow up the vendettas"?  You can't shoot then sky leap, you leave yourself open to fire if you want to approach.

Are you throwing your haywire grenades...?

2nd Turn: Deep strike in, drop grenade packs on veterans and shoot if able, remember at this point they are still busy destroying your punisher squadron.

3rd Turn: Jump out, fleet assault 1st Vendetta hid behind the wreck

4th Turn: Jump out, Destroy 2nd Vendetta hid behind wreck again.

5th Turn: Destroy 3rd Vendetta hide behind wreck again.

6th Turn: Pop out shoot the veterans, assault.

Etc. etc.

As for you Vanquishers, I take the all lance strike power gaming apoc army of cheesy doom, bwahahahaha

@Light: Squadrons doesn't need your Hawk to attack each one, hits spreads around.

Stormshield/Thunder Hammer Termies can take the Strike and most survive. Then they hammer whatever is the opposition.

@light: you don't understand, you are assuming everyting goes well for only you.
Who goes first is important.  One can put the valk in reserve or outflank.  They can come in first or second, or later.
You are assuming they are 24 and less inches away from you, they can out pace you.

Sure you blow up one or two.
They have the speed to get around the wreck, drop cargo and plaster you.

Light you are also breaking a rule ( I might have, but no one is saying anything yet) It must be a legit unit, the lance strike is not.

@starky and light:
You would both draw in Apoc, both of you have no scoring units.

@Light again: you will kill at most...
Lets say you cover 9 on template, you'll kill 1, then charge, lets assume you hit all and wound all, that's 4 kills, the 5 hit back, that's 10 attacks, 5 hits.... 25/6 wounds, 25/12 wounds, that's 2 wounds that instant kill.

To kill teh Calidus Assassin: 10 Zerkers with fist in a rhino.  You can't kill the tank, they get out to assault you back.

If you meet a bear named Sanctjud in the tavern, don't get into his van for candy.  I did once....it's sticky, salty, and really not very nice. :(

You are breaking the rules too, A unit, Yarrick and the extra Furious charge is at minimum 3 units.

Plus, I'll most likely take 2 wounds from the shooting, then charge them, Cav = 6" move, D6 fleet, 12" charge.  Then I've got no retreat on you.. much like you did to me.

To counter: HellHound squadron, 3 with them flammry magics..

Master of the Ravenwing in his Land Speeder.

Can't hurt front armor, lots of shots to overload cover saves.

Surrounded by your glory, what will my heart feel? Will I dance for you Jesus, or in awe of you be still?
Will I stand in your presence, or to my knees will I fall?
Will I sing, 'Hallelujah'? Will I be able to speak at all?
I can only imagine...
