Imperal citizens.

Horde army to the max, 1 point cost models, all armed with pipes or such,

aka a riot mob of today. some have guns some have cc weapons. their heavy support is a car.

imagien the massacres they'd keep getting, but imagine the objective holding powers of hundreds of them.


That or the imperial house wives. a truely scarey army

Ahh yes. Nothing beats an Angry Mob. Except maybe an Angry Mob armed with guns. Oh wait... We already have Imperial Guard. Just get rid of the tanks

What about an army of just landraiders? Yes we can call it the army of the machine spirit. No techpriests or mechanicus guys, just landraiders. They count as Troops, HQ, Elite, Fast Attack, and Heavy Support choices.

That is great. I want an army of those guy's.

Has anyone seen that car add with that ninja kat person?
That would probably be appropiate right now.

Weren't we asked this before?

Anyhow, I'd support (in descending order of priority):
1. Chaos Guard aka "LatD"
2. Craftworld Biel-Tan
3. Adeptus Mechanicus
That is, I'm only interested in seeing more GEQs come out, and preferably fighty ones.

Those aren't exactly 'new' armies. (well...mabye Adeptus Mechanicus)

That's why we need an army of space squids, octopi, and cuttlefish.

well, there's enough tentacle in slaanesh and tzeench to already count. (Not to mention a crabs army, lol)

No, those armies don't have anywhere near enough tentacles, arms, or any other cephalopodic appendages.

A "counts-as" Daemon Princes and/or Greater Daemons modeled as a Tentacle Monsters would work just fine!

No it wouldn't. I demand rules. I want militant squid infantry, battle armour, and armoured vehicles boiling out of their homeworld and striking back at the dryfoot threat that fills the Heavens-Above-Heaven.

A Lictor... BLOR!!! wrote:Demiurg (Squats) or an army that would be the antithesis of a current race. Tau are kinda the opposite of Tyranids, Orks and Eldar are sorta polarized. Marines vs CSM. Imperium vs Necrons. So what opposites can we devise?

Kinda feel that it is the orks/Tau and the eldar/ 'nids are the opposite numbers.


But I agree about a dwarven race. I want dwarven admech in terminator armor. Power armored dwarves in penitient engines looking dreadnought. Dwarven troops with no ranged weapon but all carry thunder hammer and storm shiled. Transports that bristle with guns. Yeah.....


Failing that then Codex: Mercenaries. A codex of how to build mercenary lists with troops and units from all of the armies. (Just a pipe dream)

How are eldar opposite of nids?

i like the idea of armoured dwarves

Emperors Faithful wrote:How are eldar opposite of nids?

Eldar areFew in number and getting less all the time while the 'Nids are constantly growing.

Eldar a small model count army of elites and 'Nids are "Supposed" to be a hoard army where every creature can do a variety of jobs depending upon the biomorphs chosen.

Eldar are supposedly the smartest and most independent of races while the 'Nids are mindless drones.



That was the thought behind my comment. Pls take into account that this is purely IMO and no one has to agree.

Anyone else thinking of fielding entire armies of pirates, mercenaries, and just general criminal scum?

Adeptus Mechanicus has so much potential...

Ordo Xenos could be really really great specially if radical choices could be picked (think recruiting Xeno mercs or other stuff).

GW should figure out a way to update all of the current codices at the same time instead of wasting efforts on a new army, IMHO.

I'd like this, but i'd really only want a few current units, like kroot that work better, vespid that work at all, renegade guard platoons, ork boy mobs, and the randomness that is an inquisitors retinue, but i'd want everything else to be alien stuff that we havent seen ingame before, like tarellians, jokaero (sp?), and hrud. Like the mercenary army from one of the last chancers books.

Space Pirates , as they could have deserters from all sorts of armys, some kroot that didn't like the greater good and some renegade DA cos the are essentially Space Pirates, and I would love to see them make some Skitarii legions with rules cos it would look so cool!!

No more MEQ, preferably nothing Imperial.

I kind of like the idea of a pirate army, actually-maybe Maelstrom mercenaries?

Like some people already said a lost human colony which grows to be an empire but they are fighting against the imperuim in the means to free the people. Just like form Halo. Or they could be some humans as mercinaries for otehr races?????

Yeah, they're called Dark Eldar... And at this point they would be considered a brand new GEQ army.

How about Codex: Free Companies, As the name for a mercenary codex?

lizard men evolved

Not really a new army but I would like to see GW add Niccassar (sp?) to the Tau. They could certainly have some interesting unitsd and vehicles.
