So having been a fan of both 30k and FO4 for a while I decided that I needed a 30k army themed along those lines. That being said this will be a pre-war ish US Army themed army. They'll be wielding ( hopefully) water-cooled assault rifles whilst wearing body armor and helmets of the combat armor variety for those familiar with the video game Fallout 4 ( and attached images below for the Fallout 4 art book). Survivors of a dark age may be one of my provenances, but the rest of the provenances and the list as a whole is up for recommendations. Of course it will be based on an infantry heavy list, ie lotsa either levies ( representing US National Guard troops) or regular platoons (being Active Duty US Army), and grenadiers (representing power armored troops). I tend to prefer lotsa bodies in my armies, that being said recommendations are why this post is here.

I like it! Although I am more partial to my idea:

Civil War confederates (where armor beyond a 5+ is represented by kine-shielding from packs worn on the person) it will be a stupid, fun, amazing army

I'll never be able to repay CA for making GW realize that The Old World was a cash cow, left to die in a field.

Nice idea mate, always good to see fallout love on Dakka.


2000pts IG. ( based on fallout US Army)

3000pts XIIth Legiones Astartes 8th Assault Company. (Pre heresy)

never in the field of human conflict, has so much been fired at so many, by so few.

Helmets are in the works though exnay on the guns. Oh well we'll say that they are carrying combat rifles. Vic Miniatures is providing the vast majority of the soldiers bodies and guns. While I think I'll be raiding Vinni miniatures for the power armor troopers. I've got everything ordered! Now I have to think about my list..... Also does anyone use the arvus lighters? I kinda wanted at least one as a counts as vertibird but they're armor and weapons choice are like eeeeeh. Though I guess they fit the Vertibird perfectly, ie a gun armed transport rather than a gunship.... Any thoughts on Provinces? I was thinking survivors of a dark age and chem inhalers, sticking with the fallout theme, lol.

Also fluff coming soon! Think death world that is covered in flourishing life due to an out of control ancient terra forming virus...... (FEV anyone) also atomic everything....... I mean the planet is rich in deposits of radioactive material and heavy metals.....though we all know radioactivity and out of control evolution don't go well together.....
