Hi all,

I am soon to start my Airborne Assault Formation, using Kasrkin as per the uplaoded image. The plan is to use them with the assassin formation as an extraction team.

I'll use the Cadian Hostile Environment Commander as the commissar, but need help finding a good commander and squad leaders.

I'm a fan of the Infinity SAS models (one pictured), though there is only 2 out there, I don't mind the standard Kasrkin Sarg, but I feel he will look too familiar even with arm and head swaps.

I need help finding something suitable for such a force.... any ideas?

What about kit bashing one with the forge world hostile environment kit?

The only issue I have with that is the weedy legs, the squad leaders probably need to be either bulkier or totally different "special agent" types I feel.

Could bit source the long skirt leg off the regular cadin command box and use the haz head and back pack. should look a bit more bulky

Cheers, did look at that as an option. It will probably be the way to go.

Was just hoping someone knew of some crazy 3rd party models that would fit in.

Have you seen any of the MERCS miniatures line? They have some awesome stuff if you're looking for 3rd party minis.

Just two examples of some of the minis available from this company. Some come with different head options which will make it easy to swap the head for something that you think fits the aesthetic a little better.

Just my two cents. Good luck!

What is best in life? To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women. Grrr.

Well considering kasrkin armor is cadian armor with gauntlets, a gut plate, shin, knee & groin plates added on why not just use the cadian hostile environment kit & simply press mold the leg armor from a kasrkin? Unless by too weedy you mean the legs don't look like tree trunks. I haven't used any of fw's cadian kits but the Elysians & DKoK are more true scale than those hulking derpy cadians or their steroid laced catachan brethren.
