I enjoy painting more than gaming, so i've bought these models and they're all I have to work with!

Imperial Guard
I don't know if this is legal or not and also if it would be any good in tournies. I'm most concerned about the rules concerning the HQ command squad.

Here it is : 500 points imperial guard (346 points without the psykers and the snipers - second hand rule book w/missing pages)

COMMAND GROUP

5 sanctioned psykers
junior officer with power sword

FAST ATTACK

6 rough riders

HEAVY SUPPORT

mortar support squad (I'm guessing that this is what my unit is, the models are actualy Cadian Imperial Guard Heavy Weapon Teams (3 teams))

TROOPS

2 x 10 Imperial guardsmen with seargant, granade launcher guy and flamer

ELITE

2 cadian snipers

500 Points? Brave man.

*reads list*

Umm... that's completely illegal. It's not even a list. You've even written down choices that don't exist in the game.

BYE

Your list needs to have at least the following to be legal:

HQ: Command squad
Officer
4x Dudes

Troops:
2x Command squad
Officer, 4x dudes

4x Squad
10 dudes

Minimum of 360 points. In order to even play IG, you need to paint up 55 dudes.

Even though majority of models are plastic, they're one of the more expensive armies to field for this reason.

The people are right

You need at least 2 troop choices, and that means at least 50 guys for troops alone.

Or, you could get armoured fist squads but that needs a tank

Minimum of 280 with Conscripts.

345 w/Armoured Fist.
