As I mentioned in my intro, I stopped playing in 2010. I’ve picked up the 8th edition rules and the AM codex (forgive me if I keep calling it IG, force of habit in my head and all) and took a pass at converting the WIP army I was play testing at the time I quit.

It was made up of ratlings, veterans, grenadiers, chimeras, valkyries, and vendettas.

In order to make it work (or at least I think make it work) under the new system (battleforged and all that) I’ve built it as a battalion based around the stormtroopers, er MT’s...

Now if I did my math right, this comes out to be 2000 points and meets the organizational requirements and doesn’t use the vendettas as they don’t appear in the rule book or the AM codex (they were replaced by the Russ’).

What do you think? Keeping in mind the prime with the PF is “fluffy” as are the snipers (ratlings) and I’m really not open to dropping/modifying them. Everything else though...
