But I really liked the new Bullgryn/Ogryn kit. I’ve always loved the idea and fluff behind the Ogryns, but not always the models. The search continues.And we’re back to the Imperium. But what I'm missing is a Space Pimp for the RT him/herself. I've got converted skaven guardsmen (and commissar SqueakSqueak), the RT's personal guard in heraldic red and white, vehicles in weird schemes (a Magos convinced the RT that repainting offends the machine spirits) and I'm looking at either stuff from the Inquisition coded or a bunch of Valkyries next. That force is pretty vanilla, and you don't have anything air-based, and the LRMBT is a bit heavy to keep heaving out of the old lander whenever his nibs wants to make planetfall to nick something. I mean, you could - and my own IG are a RT entourage - but to my mind a RT IG force should be two things: kinky and airmobile. What you have there is a solid base for a lot of themes.Īctually, I wouldn't do a rogue trader entourage with that lot. I mean, 1 chimera between 4 platoons is a bit light for an Armageddon Steel Legion unit, but that setup works perfectly fine for the Cadian 26543rd or the 2nd Allandarosian Fusileers or whatever narrative you dream up.

Are you just saying 'Rough Riders' and done or are you doing something else with them?īut even the bikers are only slightly kinky - the stuff you have is fine for any IG regiment that's infantry heavy but does have some support equipment. The only slightly kinky thing you have in the list is the bikers. *Astra Militarum is a bullshit name, fuck that, Guard forever.

Combat Bikers (7) (comprising both Space Marine style bike-with-bolters and RT jetbikes).Chimera (1) (model is actually a mildly converted Stryker IFV).Heavy weapons squads (mortars, autocannons, lascannons).So what kind of unit would have a TO&E that includes (but is not limited to):

I'm not concerned as to whether it would perform well under current game meta, but I would like to construct a list out of units that have been legal in some IG codex at some point in time. Going forward I'd like to make future purchases in a way that lets me put together a thematically sound Guard force ("yes, it makes sense that this unit, with this tactical and strategic purpose, would be fielding these troops together"). This has led to a very ad-hoc selection of models. I have a (very WIP) Imperial Guard* army, which I'm collecting through the scrounging method: odd lots off of eBay, repurposing other models, etc.
