This army is built for City fight Board only, all the CC of the troops is jacked, the Chem Inhalers keep them close to the fight, Harden fighters and Weapons warriors make them much harder in combat. The Cameleoline and Carapace armor Keep them in the fight longer greatly increasing their survivability in While moving through ruins.

The last chancers add tons of Nasty fire to the unit, and the Sisters Repentia unit with priest makes for a nasty CC unit.

**rryannn**

where is your second troop choice? do the last chancers count as it?

**DustGod**

OMG! I must be High! man...well it says they (Full chancers) count as 2 troops...sh!t should I bring this to the rules court...Wheres Ghaz?

**paidinfull**

taking that many last chancers does count as 2 troop choices

also i like the idea of all the repentia. hope that it works for you.

**wight_widow**

It's nice to see a command platoon in the army lol.

Have fun with the rest of the painting. You had been doing an okay job in the photos on your previous thread. Keep at it and you'll eventually have enough guys to avoid some of the weaker options a low model count forces you to use.

Another solution to not having many models is to play games at a lower points level. Most of the stuff in your list would fit in for 1000, all in 1500.

Keep painting!

**DustGod**

Shoot I was thinking about dropin the troop choice and Weapons warriors and going with 2 hardend vets units and more tanks...

**wight_widow**

A thought for when you get those tanks and additional troops painted: (As I understand making count is going to be an issue)

Good.

Total army pts1998 ->1270

(730 under for 2k, 230 under for 1500, 270 over for 1000 - leaves you with a solid tactical base for a larger IG list)

For 1500 two Hellhounds and a Chimera would do the trick, at 2000 a second las/plas platoon, a third Hellhound and command-squad Chimeras for the remaining points. Flamers for command squads, extra armour, and pintle-mounted heavy stubbers can be used to fill in points reasonably well in that order. Using a large brush, I suspect you will find you are able to paint tanks to your standard much faster than comparable points values of infantry.

That sound pretty cool too...I was wanting to keep the sisters repentia...I have this Penal Troop W/ giant power sword in mind following the same pattern as the regular troopers....the bodys done now to I might need to make some adjustments to the armor and recast them...but it's MK8 Guard 1/2 armor and man It's bad @55 fits Catachan N SM scout legs. got more Bald human heads than I know what to do with...and a Under slung Special weapons pattern...think Temie style Heavy flamer/assult cannon but make them fit guard melta/plasma/flamer post pics when I get a chance...
