I'm guessing they are the same models as regular Crisis Battlesuits as well?

Thanks for the advice

No, they have the same stats as a Crisis unit sergeant for the same cost. (Shas'vre rank).

Also an important difference is the Shas'vre in a regular unit needs to use up a hardpoint to take a relic, whilst a bodyguard does not.

That said? They no longer matter now that they aren't taken from HQs. The main benefit of them in the last codex was squeezing an extra crisis squad into your army.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/672733/8307590.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/672733/8307590.page GMT Are there any differences between Crisis Battlesuits and Crisis Bodyguards?

The new crisis suit kit has five different torso plates, three are very minor variations of each other, one is wide and round and represents iridium armour along with some other parts, and the fifth is visually similar to the regular ones but with an elongated chest piece.

There is no definitive answer to whether it should be modeled differently, but if you want to, you have a lot of options and ways to do it.

As for colour scheme, the codexes do have suggestions. A squad's 'sergeant' typically has a little more of the sept's marking colour on parts of its body. A unit of bodyguards typically are painted that way.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/672733/8307633.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/672733/8307633.page GMT
