AnomanderRake yes! I'll write up some rules maybe? Hmmmmm.... jet pack or jump pack?

Jump pack. The Imperium uses jump packs - a pair of blast pistols with a BS3 squad works rather like a seraphim squad (especially with hit and run) which works because seraphim are supposed to have an old traditional fighting style.

How about this for a jump squad? Thinking Troop or Fast Attack slot? I thought the Veteran upgrade could give an opportunity for a slightly harder hitting unit, like a jump Grenadier squad almost.

Imperialis Militia Attack Squad: 50 points

The Imperial Army formations borrowed many traditional forms of warfare from Humanities long history of battle experience, and the Attack Squad is one of these ancient battle tactics that saw use in campaigns throughout the Great Crusade as well as the Age of Darkness that followed. The tactical use of these squads were for them to act in close support of regular army units, able to jump over intervening terrain to deliver deadly fusillades of pistol fire into otherwise concealed squads before moving on to the next target. Their equipment meant that they were best used in areas of dense terrain such as jungle, or urban environments where they could remain concealed until the opportune moment came for a blitz attack. While their style of warfare was risky, and often resulted in high casualties, Veteran Attack Troopers were experts at this form of combat able to skirt away from a pursuing enemy with ease to release salvo after salvo of accurate fire.

New tank released for militia yay! Usable by grenadiers and command squads as a dt! Transport Capacity is 10? Overpriced by 25 points unfortunately.......
Best use a Termite instead.

Lol yeah transport capacity of 10 is lame, escpexially cause it precludes grenadier fro taking anything interesting. 25 points is cheap, but overall I don’t think we will be seeing squadrons of these guys anytime soon. FW give us a 20 man transport goddamnit!
