The Armoured Battlegroup is in the Imperial Armour Book 1 (Forgeworld) detailing the forces of the Imperial Guard. The GW list is mainly tanks and mechanised stormtroopers FW list lets you take mechanised guardsmen, one off special abilities for tanks, and some vehicles not listed in the GW one.

From what I understand armored battlegroup has some interesting additional abilities, including artillery support of some sort. the Armored company is more crude, but it does have a nice group of doctrines, some effective, some fluffy. Re-rolling direction dice is so choice... Its also free on the UK website, and generally more usable in tourneys.

I don't have the book in front of me but I think it is in the back of IA 1, with the army list. I was looking at mine the other night and found the list in the back of the book for a Chimera company with heavy tank support.
There is also a list in IA 3 for the Taros campaign.

Can't find it in there. Maybe in IA 3, I don't have that. Know any place where the list could be found, I mean on web?

White Dwarf/ GW Website - Imperial Guard Armoured Companies IA1 - Imperial Guard Armoured Battlegroup IA3 - Elsyian Drop Troops, Tallarns and Tau Human Auxilleries IA4 - D-99 Droptroops
Unsure about the web but I scan my books so I don't have to lug around my IA books and let people put their greasy fingers over the originals.
