I have 49 more bodies and parts to make 2 autocannon teams. 3 heavy bolster teams. Lascannon team.

What would you suggest I use the bodies on? More flashlights? Buy more special weapons. I obviously need more tanks. Aegis?

Drop Pods are a big part of the meta now, so meltagun teams are valuable to you.

If you're not too a purist on conversions, the chaos cultist on the left is a lasgun with the barrel snipped off, and one of those sprue, extras bit cylinders on the end. A little paint and it's passable.




An Aegis Defence Line sounds like an asset if you are gonna play a gunline IG.

And you mentioned tanks. How big is your budget?

I've got fully space marine army so not looking break bank. Would like to get a full tank squad so the lone tank isn't a target

Any thoughts on hellhounds and little used stuff. This would be my more fun/cheap on eBay army
