Soooo I've got a kill team event coming up sooner or later at my local shop so lets get to the good bits.
kill team is 200pts.

1 squad of penal legion (catachan jungle fighters painted in prison garb and wife beaters)
1 squad of penal legion themed heavy weapons (catachan as well)

and heres the funny bit of this list....
POST APOCOLYPTIC BATTLE BUS! to proxy for a chim.




Now I'm not completely set on this list until I have my bus ready, I will even sacrifice an existing chim. for the weapons or take one from my other heavy weapons team. Also seeing as how I currently have an imperial guard army I'm slowly building this will always be a hilarious 200 points to bring into any battle.

This will be a WIP blog type thing where I will take suggestions and such. Tomorrow I will begin looking for the frame work for my battle bus between some hobby shops and craft stores that sell plastic kits. If you have any suggestions where I can locate a 40k'ish scale school bus that'd be awesome. Thanks Dakkadakka I hope to find a bus soon

I ilke the idea of a battle bus, but I think you need to re-think your Catachan idea. I think you'll do better with Catachan legs and Cadian everything else. (except for maybe heads.)

I hope to see more from this blog.

Those buses looks great. I'm stealing the idea for my nest ork trukk

Please do! I'd love to see an ork version of this! as far as catachan look like they have basically the same type of cargo pants as normal gaurdsmen, I'd like to use catachan because the main bulk of my actual guard army is standard guardsmen so I'd like them to stand out. Thank you for the suggestion, I will look into it regardless

as far as updates go...I'm still looking for the bus

Unfortunatly i couldn't find the right bus and with the event coming up soon I wanted to have something so I decided it was time to tear apart an old chimera. You can follow the results on my P&M blog so I don't need to have a thousand threads the link to that blog thread is: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/428745.page
