/c/astramilitarum

A place to discuss the 40k faction Astra Militarum, previously known as the Imperial Guard.

Though our tanks and artillery are mighty, it is the vast ranks of Imperial Guardsmen that shall trample the enemy to dust - let them come.

I've just finished tweaking this Leman Russ proxy, inspired by the very original model released for Epic back in the 80s. It's designed to be easy to print in FDM (no supports required for printing), the one pictured was printed on a stock Ender 3.

I'm fairly happy with how this one turned out, I've a little bit of tidying up to do, but hope to have the model up on Cults3D next week.

05.07.2023 - point changes (www.warhammer-community.com)

Points changes as [new value (cost change)]


  • Basilisk 135 (+25)
  • Deathstrike 160 (+25)
  • Field Ordnance Battery 120 (+20)
  • Manticore 125 (+20)
  • Wyvern 110 (+20)

Pretty rough for our artillery overall, they were a bit underpriced so its reasonable imo. Do not understand upping FOB price, those were not competitive even at a 100...

I decided to make a Marshall for my troops. Kitbashed a mask to the commissar and will probably run as either commissar or marshall depending on the game.

Building veteran IG Kill Team (self.astramilitarum)
submitted 1 year ago by jantin to c/astramilitarum
 
 

In the Kill Team game we have two options to run Astra Militaurm - either "generic" list with guards and Tempestus Scions or veteran guard (the Krieg kit). I have a bunch of old Steel Legion minis, which I want to turn into a Veteran KT, but I have no clue how to do it - I have not played KT yet so I don't know what kind of gear would be best. I know I have 4 special weapons (plasma, melta, flamer, grenade launcher) one sergeant and two guys who are different from the rest because they kneel (missile launcher bearer and loader). What bits do I need to put on these folks to make a functional Veteran KT?

Noticed there wasnt a dedicated guard community on here so decided to make one. ~~Will get to updating banners and such in a moment.~~

EDIT: this now done, will think about if rules and recommendations are needed as well
