If you could add a unit or piece of equipment to an army, what would you add?
Here's my pick:

Chaos SM

-Heretic Squads a la DoW
-Malice

Necrons

- Obelisks (why don't we have those?!)
- Pariahs (maybe as a HQ slot, like 1-3 pariahs a slot to represent their rareness)

Feel free to add in your opinions

Your title, in fact, does not say it all.

What about now?
DERP! I just realized what the problem was

**DeffDred**

lol I would add Furioso style dreds to all marine armies.

**Noir**

Add nothing, put back in.well... Everything they stole from the Orks.

**termin8r**

Let impirial guard take a squad of marines.

**Mr Nobody**

Or add a single space marine to a squad.

**Sinful Hero**

I would actually like even more types of bugs for the Tyranid codex... I like variety. Lots of variety. Preferably playable variety though.

**Joey**

Lord Solar Macharius in IG. Something that could be as OP as the heroes in GK/BA, anyway.

**Tadashi**

The Emperor to all Imperial lists.
The Primarchs to all Space Marine and Chaos Space Marine lists (except those Chapters who 'don't know' their Primarchs, since we can't have Daemon Princes in Imperial lists).

**LoneLictor**

Chaos Space Marines should have Legion rules, cool mutation rules for Daemon Princes, Possessed, Cult Units and Chaos Spawn, and cultists as a troop choice.

Tyranids shouldn't have unique characters and should have more options.

**DarthSpader**

my VDR design for a dark eldar fast attack vehicle. i call it a "sidewinder" - venom chasis with no troop cap, a splinter cannon and 4 monoscythe missiles. no upgrades for weapons, but can take any gear as per a venom. base cost is 80pts, and is a unit of 1-3 per slot.

**Great White**

Nicassar in the Tau dex

**Fezman**

I'd like to bring back mobbing up for Orks.

**Mr Hyena**

Inquisition:

-PROPER Inquisitorial Storm Troopers.

**androcles138**

Sisters:

Faith like we used to have.

Imperial Guard:
More variety of gear for footguard, AKA camo cloaks to represent recon forces.

**Jihadnik**

Medpaks for Infantry squads in IG...Where is your god now!

Or failing that, Commissars as independent characters!

**martin74**

Extra armor on vehicles that is actually extra armor. I would make is expensive to a degree, such as 45 points to make it +1 to the front and side armor.

I have always wanted medpaks for infantry squads. Have a restriction, where, you need a minimum of 3 squads to get one. As far as commissars as independent characters, you don't want that. No reason to make the commissars best ability be nuetralized quickly. If your squad losses stubborn, they run off the table.

**Jihadnik**

Good point, although I want them independent so I can attach them to my cowardly ratlings and heavy weapon teams to make them shoot straight!

My ratlings are always ignoring thier orders because they are too busy smoking and bludging!

**Sunoccard**

for Chaos:
Chaos Cultists
Special units for Chaos legions other than the standard 4.

**spiralingcadaver**

Chaos: something to represent traitors, mutants, and/or cultists. I'm fine with not geting Guard vehicles, but a basic one to represent all of those basic guys.

Imperials: not one choice, but some semblance of the old system for Grey Knights/Sisters and associated inquisition elements in your army. It makes sense, pure and simple.

Kroot: to exist as an army again?

**TheAngrySquig**

Dark Eldar: AP 1 on the frakkin dark lances. Also longer range on everything

**Devil Dog**

Not a spacewolf player, but they should get lemun russ tanks.
For space marines, all should get storm ravens. GK should get more fast attack than just 2. Maybe landspeeders or jetpacks.

**theman99808**

give the black templar some kind of assault rhino. ive heard the rumors and they sound amazing. Make their marines actually worth their points values.............please?

**Ghenghis Jon**

An Front AV12 transport vehicle for Orks.

The old Ork Biker Rule for ALL Bikes in the game: getting to shoot FIRST when assaulting before Initiative steps with no CC attacks.

**candy.man**

Add balance to the GK codex.

Joking aside, I’d removed the special character mechanics from the Vanilla book and re-add them via an “army wide trait” mechanic (i.e. you don’t have to take Vulcan to play Salamanders but select the Salamander army trait instead). I’d also reduce the save of storm shields in all codices to state 3++ in CC only.

Whilst I would like to list stuff for Chaos, the list required to “fix the book” is too big and they’re plenty of threads on Dakka already that adequately target the issues and required improvements.

**Jakka**

Ciaphas Cain for IG. Seriously.

**King Crow**

arms for pointing in plastic Tau Fire Warrior kits.

**Celticwelsh**

Carapace armour for guard veterans, not just for storm troopers.

**JohnnoM**

Drop pods in CSM army, oh berserkers in pods how awesome that would be.
