As per gris' request, im posting up my tactics. This is my most recent list, i like it and i think it plays well. I know it lacks plasma guns, but apart from that i think its pretty well rounded.
When playing this list i would set up the Guard in a piece of heavy cover, as a static firebase. Obviously this would depend on the terrain available.
The roughriders would advance behing the armour. The one weakness of this plan is the low armour on the chimera, as if that goes my roughriders will die.
