As he was taken to the armory to select the weapon with which he would serve the Emperor, he remembered the wise words of his training master: "In case of emergency, promethium canisters double as micro airstrikes." He vowed to remember these wise words as he selected a Flamer from the weapon rack, and marched out to join his new squad.
Spoiler:
G'day everyone! I plan to play an imperial guard army heavily focused on specialty vehicles and troops such as Hellhound/Devildog Chimera's and lots of fire support units to support the obligatory Sovi- I mean, Imperial mass infantry swarm. I'm not sure which regiment it will be, since I still need to buy the models, but I'll figure that out at some point. Probably Krieg or Cadian regiment. Naturally I will try to avoid long range engagements, but I'll possibly add some LRBT's and additional heavy guns, to replace a fielded unit as necessary if I'm forced into a long range engagement. Organized as a Infantry Regiment for now, soon to be a Heavy Infantry or Mechanized Regiment, as soon as I can get carapace armour and the necessary transports. The general idea is a to have 1/4 of the army be stationary or slow moving long range support weaponry, 1/4 to be units that I'll swap out depending on the engagement (more artillery/tanks if it's an open field, more infantry if I have a wide area to defend, or more flame weapons if it's a lot of close range stuff) and the rest be Hellhounds, Devil Dogs, and my elite units. Mix in some air support and a sweeping gunline behind the transports, perhaps. To be modified upon further research.

Burn the heretic. Kill the mutant. Purge the unclean.
And remember, your trusty Flamer can do all three.
