http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/65.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net 40k tabletop game that the models are used for. My friends got me into it but they have only been playing for a month or two longer then me. I currently have a start collecting set for the necron I've been using to learn with along with their index but what I really want to do is build an imperial guard army (they where always my favorite faction in the dawn of war games.)

At the moment I have a start collecting kit for the astra militarum with a full squad of 10 soldiers, the commisar prefectus (I think that is what it's called) a heavy weapons team, and a Leman Russ tank. I also just recently purchased and put together another cadian trooper squad and an armed fist squad giving me another 10 man squad and a chimera transport vehicle.

My load out is:

All 3 squads have a sergeant with a pistol and chainsword, a vox caster, a flame thrower unit and the rest are infantry. (I had read on another post somewhere before I joined that the grenade launcher was pretty lack luster.)

The Leman Russ tank has an assault cannon (or what ever the default snub nose looming cannon is) and has two plasma guns and a flamer though I can easily interchange those three guns to others as I didn't glue them in (they stay in pretty snug on their own), and I'm assuming the items I put on the tank where also smoke launchers.

The chimera has the multilaser for its main turret, a heavy stunner mounted to the top, the commander has a bolt pistol (don't know if that matters) there is also a flamer on the front but it's not glued in, may invest in pina or magnets.

My commisar has a plasma pistol.

Finally the heavyweapons team is an autocannon as I read it was the beat out of all of my choices.

I have no idea if I have a good start to my imp army and I was wondering what are some key units to have or that you all would recommend a new player?

Hope I posted in the right forum.
