    Starting a second army

    After I finish getting the terrain for the table for the house done, I'm thinking about starting a second army. Part of my motivation for doing a second army is to have something I can use to introduce friends to the game. My wife's interest in Eldar was fleeting, so I'm thinking about a guard army. Good idea or bad idea? I haven't really had much experience playing against guard, so I'm not sure what direction I should go. The idea of going toward vets in chimeras seems a little too similar to tactical marines in rhinos, so I guess I would be playing blob squads. Based on that, this is a list I put together, allying in my knight to fill some points and provide some punch. To bring it up to 1850, I can add another infantry squad to each platoon and a squadron of wyverns. Thoughts?
