The only point you make which I find valid is that to get fancy units you have to upgrade each building one at a time for a single thing to become unlocked. The point I'm trying to make here is that each faction has its own style and purpose - the IG like to shoot).
You can upgrade your Guardsmen squads to be packed full of men with tons of Plasma Guns which rape Marine units or Grenade Launchers which rape Ork mobs and other mob units.Īnd you claim they have no melee or shooty units? Errr, did you stick around long enough to find Ogryns or Kasrkin? IG aren't even meant to be a close combat race, after all how could basic men with a small bayonet possibly compete with Space Marines or Orks in melee? If you want melee fighters, play Orks (which incidently have few good shooty units cause they aren't geared towards that playstyle. You just don't know how to use them or how they play, and you appear unwilling to learn. When you have Leman Russes, Basilisks, Hellhounds, Kasrkin, Ogryns, Commissars/Priests etc and not to mention a frickin' Baneblade you are incredibly strong. It is a fact that the Imperial Guard are not a uselss army, they aren't weak and they are powerful.
I suggest you go and play with a basic faction which has units for everything as it will suit you better. I'm sorry but its quite obvious you just can't play Imperial Guard.
