Not sure if this goes here but, I've ordered a set of sternguard arms bits and they arrived yesterday. My problem is I dont know how the left and right arms match with each other. Im looking for someone who owns the sternguard kit to post here or send me a photo of the instructions manual at the page where it shows how the arms combine with each other

One thing to look for in general with marine arms is similarities. GW puts the same “tell” on both arms more often then not.

For example, there should be a pair of sternguard arms both with cords tired around them.
And a pair with bulky riveted forearm guards.


If you look at the sprue pic on GW’s site, the matched arms share a same letter code. So 76A goes with 75A


Hope that helps.

What previous poster said. Find matching details on left and right arm and you have the pair that is designed to go together. The same is true for vanilla and Blood Angels Tactical Squad as well by the way.

Alternatively, you can e-mail GW customer service and ask for pdf instructions. They usually reply within day or two.

Ohh they can do that? I will try it for sure. Thanks for the replies.
