Okay so new player here planning on buying ice storm with my next pay check. It looks like a great starter, good value, & the two factions fit two of the people I plan on demoing with.
My question is; can someone help me decide on a list of haqqislam units that would fit decently with the other two? I don't exactly love PanO & the nomads are definitely not my cup of tea. Thanks in advance if anyone can give be a hand or even offer other alternatives. Why knows? Maybe someone else is having a similar problem.

The general Haqqislam starter would be a good place to start, as the other two are starter sets as well. Then add something a bit more special to add to go with the Reverend Healer and Father Knight.

The Haqq starter as Loki said. It will get you this:

HAQQISLAM
──────────────────────────────────────────────────

GROUP 1 5 1 0

NAFFATÛN Rifle + Light Flamethrower / Pistol, Knife. (10)
GHULAM Rifle + Light Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (13)
GHULAM Rifle + Light Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (13)
GHULAM Rifle + Light Shotgun / Pistol, Knife. (13)
HUNZAKUT (Deployable Repeater) Sniper Rifle, Antipersonnel Mines / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 25)
JANISSARY AP Rifle + Light Shotgun / Pistol, CCW. (45)

0.5 SWC | 119 Points

Open with Army 4


Which covers LI and HI and a camo unit-- the Hunzakut. For a special figure that is in line with the Rev. Healer or Father-Knight (~33 and 43 points respectively) perhaps the Djanbazan HMG, or the the Al Hawwa hacker. I suspect the Djanbazan are in for a resculpt soon enough, so perhaps the Hawwa . But if you must stick to the rules available for Icestorm, neither of these will work. I would consider getting the support pack with the Ghulam Doctor and the Najjarun engineer-- both of which can be used as proxies for other things.

And your Army would look like this

Newcastle, OZ

You could use a Djanbazan (MSV2) in there also as the PanO nisse has an MSV2 and is also an MI.


I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.

That is not dead which can eternal lie ...

... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

The lack of flash on my phone makes this so much more difficult but thank you guys so much. Would you consider the aforementioned to be a decent start to an army as well? I plan on branching out once I get the rat of my group into the game.

Use Aleph Toolbox, which is an app available for android, if you are using an adroid phone. There is a way to use the toolbox in a browser too, here http://anyplace.it/ia/ia.html although I do not know that it is as up to date as the official army builder. At least it is not that :censored: flash :censored:

If you're using an iPhone, look in the app store for 'Ops: infinity'. It's a neat little list builder. Aleph toolbox isn't available for the iPhone anymore.
