So Finally! the work on the expansion of the existing 'Redcoats' Imperial Guard has begun!

Meowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww~

Spoiler:

Army: 1st Minogue K. Astra Militarum Regiment "The Bloody Red One"
Player: Lone Cat


HQ A> Company Command Squad

4x Veterans (2XMeltaguns, Medipack, Vox Caster)
Troops B> Light Artillery Platoon
B0> Platoon Command Squad

Heavy Support G> Wyvern



OK This is an interim list, yet i've made a throughout calculations and the army is almost 1,000 points worth. I'm yet decided to choose the troop transport choices between Chimera and Taurox . It appears that certain player in Thailand advised AGAINST Taurox (and thus favoring Kittymera =^.^=) also he suggested in favor of Scout Sentinel with multilaser (I want a cheap, light Antitank choices).
1. Which one of two transport choices should I take?
2. Investing points in Sentinel (of any variants) worthy or waseful?

Here is what I have right now
Spoiler:

The Whole army! at this moment, notice that one Infantry section with missile launcher has now become a dedicated Bazooka section!


'Heavy' Platoon.


THIS IS The Bazooka section I'm talking about! one of them was painted by a professional painting studio (costs ฿500), one that has a rubble base. the others were all my paintjob.


This is a 'Mechanized Infantry' platoon. and bound to have transport vehicles attached to, Either Taurox or Chimera... i'm yet to decide



This section will be updated once an entire unit is completed. What I'm working on right now is Wyvern close support artillery.

Actually this paintscheme is not what i've originally planned, It came with the mixture of existing British Redcoats (By the time the original 500 PTS project is coming to painting stage. I've actually watched ZULU movie. (Guess what? It was PRAETORIAN IG movie! by 2009-2010 there were no Kickstarter so Praetorians may only be made through either a tricky conversion or Ebay used minis purchase, which by then ... not quite affordable), Brotherhood of Nod footsoldiers from C&C Renegade, and ... Can't Get You Out of My Head... music video. The LEGENDARY popsong and video which is now a theme song of Kylie Minogue. (There were easter egg relating to her in early editions of 40k, look at Siver Skulls earlier fluff... to be precise the Codex Astartes. but this was not appear in the more recent ones I think)

Back to WIP.

The WIP on Wyvern, begins with track bogie. yes I followed the instruction booklet.

This is my first tank assembly ever! acutally my first time with track bogie.... Back in the day I've bought my first IG boxset... to be specific... The First GW product. the 20-men Cadian Shock Troops, IG tank track sprue consists of Track section that looks alot like either Shermans, or Carden Loyd tankette, and Roadwheels... EVERY IG tracked vehicles comes with this famous 'tank track' sprue (from what I've heard) and so assembly process included putting wheels into track bogie and followed with the track itself. ... but by the time I've finished the 500 pts army, Neither Chimera nor Leman Russ nor any variants has track wheels.... Initially i'm objected to this 'new track' sprue. but now I've learned that GW was right. it is indeed easier to assemble track into 'socketed' bogie plates. Yet I don't know if GW still produce classic IG tank track & roadwheels ?
