Vigilus: 1500 AdMech/IG vs Tyranids list

The aftermath

A 1500 point Imperial Guard/AdMech list to take on Adam’s Tyranids as part of Colin’s Vigilus Defiant campaign. The plan is to put the two Dunecrawlers and Tech-Priest at the back, behind the company commander and three squads of ten guards. The Kastelans will deploy as far forward as possible, and then use the Stygies VIII stratagem to move them forward 9″ before battle starts, and then charge. They will be supported by Scions dropping out of the Valkyrie using the new Tempestus Drop Force specialist detachment and, probably a round later, by Crusaders jumping out of the Taurox. The two tanks will sit between the two and pound away. Hopefully, I can cover enough of the battlefield to make deep strikes harder.
