So I have had a huge problem finding an IG army list I like to play since the new book came out. The thing is, with the old book, I used to field a whole lot of Last Chancers. It was a very elite Guard army. The same thing isn't really possible with the new book. So I figured the thing to do would be just to fully embrace my theme. I field a Penal World force, so Penal Legions squads all the way. Just have to put in enough support to help them out. Here is the list, which I think should be alot of fun... the Command Squad w/ Yarrick ride in the Valk....
Yarrick 185
Company Command w/ 2*Meltas, Power Fist, Plasma Pistol, Melta Bombs 100
Storm Troopers*5 w/ Meltas*2 105
6*Penal Legion Squad 480
2*Banewolves w/ heavy flamer 260
2*Banewolves w/ heavy flamer 260
Valkyrie w/ Rocket Pods 130
Demolisher 165
Demolisher 165
=1850
Given Last Chancers used to be able to be upgraded to psykers, and psyker battle squads have custodians to shepherd them, the PBS would make a good addition to this list if you wanted to push it up to the 2k mark.
ReplyDeleteOther than that looks good :o) I'm a big fan of penal legion and usually include two squads in most armies I bring :o)
Also, quick thought. If you fancy playing with the wargear in your company command some, could you squeaze in a medic? My opponents find Yarrick intensely frustrating to put down at the best of times, but Yarrick with Feel No Pain? :oP
