Imperial Guard Releases

(Link to GW Releases)

What are the ones that you are most likely to use? Here's some rulings and points:


  • Valkyrie: Flying, Drop Insertion, Chimera with Lascannon, One Shot Kraks (basic), for 100pts each
  • Sentinel: 2 variants - one 12 AV Front, one scouting move through cover. Both plastic
  • Command Squad: 50/30pt squads. Contains too many options =P
  • Ratlings - Grots with Stealth, Infiltrate, and +1 BS. 10pts each
  • Primaris Psyker: cheap. Has a 5+ Armour and Invun save. Good powers, to be honest
  • Battleforce: 1 Troop choice
  • Lord Commissar: Stubborn with 3 Wounds, 3 attacks, and re-rolls? Nice!
  • Advisors: -1 to opponent reserves, +1 to your reserves, and a moving battle cannon. VERY cheap

So, here's a small list i'll be using:

  • Company Command Squad with Lord Castellan Creed, Astropath, Master of the Fleet, and 2 Bodyguards. Veterans have Grenade Launcher, Regimental Standard, Medi Pack, Vox Caster, and Carapace Armour 305
  • Company Command Squad with Jarran Kell, Astropath, Master of the Fleet, and 2 Bodyguards. Veterans have Regimental Standard, Carapace Armour, and Medi Pack 290
  • Infantry Platoon with Command Squad (Standard, Medi Pack, Al'Rahem, and Vox Caster), 3 Infantry Squads (Probably Combined. Sergeants with Power Weapons. Grenade Launcher in each), 20 Conscripts (no upgrades) 425
  • Infantry Platoon with Command Squad (Standard, Medi Pack, Al'Rahem, and Vox Caster), 3 Infantry Squads (Probably Combined. Sergeants with Power Weapons. Grenade Launcher in each), 20 Conscripts (no upgrades) 425
  • Infantry Platoon with Command Squad (Standard, Medi Pack, Vox Caster), 3 Infantry Squads (Probably Combined. No upgrades) 230
  • Veterans with Vox Caster

Total Points: 1745. Total Models: 173. Total Kill Points: Combined (11), Uncombined (17)

This is a basic list, that attempts to take advantage of the amount of models guard can field. Sure, it doesn't contain any tricks, but it does contain the Endless Horde (TM) of Guardsmen! And anyway, even if I do scrap the list i'll still keep the models (which Guard lists need anyway)

Thats me out!
