How do!
Yes it’s another thread trying to entice people into Legions Imperialis. And it’s come from a suggestion by Seelemhaendler.
Rather than a definitive “this is best way evar” affair, this thread is intended as a repository of sample, beginner friendly army lists. Mostly focussing on cash price efficiency. Because once you’re up and running? Epic is fairly cost effective for adding new things.
If you want to partake, please also use the Legion Builder App. This is for consistency of presentation.

My first offering is a pretty lazy fiddling using the contents of one Astartes Combat Force, one Astartes Legion Infantry, and one Whirlwind/Scorpius box, with a 1,500 point limit.
Of the three, only 4 Whirlwinds go unused. Bought from Element, this will set you back a tiny smidge over £144. Not cheap, no. But cost effective if you ask me.

You’ve no real air cover here, barring the Hyperios platforms. But you could swap out the Whirlwinds for some Xiphons I guess. Otherwise you’ve a nice mix of units, a not unreasonable amount of infantry too.
