Chappy Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 Ordo peeps! My Google-fu is weak and I could not figure out where the rules for the IG Armored Company (Leman Russ' for troops choices) are. Which book? Because I have a hankerin for some tankerin! And yes, I know you can (kinda) build this in the current Guard book, but I want to be able to field Russ' as troops. And not be unbound. So, if one of you fine warmongers could point me in the right direction for my eventual world domination, with tanks, that'd be great.

pretre Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 Imperial armor, isn't it? You could also use Steel Host. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chappy Posted October 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 Ooh. Steel host. That is a good call......where's that again? And I know that it is in AN Imperial Armor, I just don't know which one. Was hoping another tread head could help me out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PourSpelur Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 I looked into the Armored Company for OFCC. The big issue is all the Russes are at the old, more expensive points. You actually get more tanks by going straight guard! I believe my list ended up being something like 13 Russ chassis, 2 Wyvern and 2 Chimera with vets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 Yeah, if I was going to do a tank list, I would just take multiple Steel Hosts. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you want to make me get angry at you? This is the internet. People get angry about smaller goofs than this! You didn't even read my OP. You lined yourself up to get yelled at. (Joking) But in all seriousness, yes I know I can run them out of the Guard book. I know...... I knoooooooooooow! But. I WANT to play them out of the Forgeworld book. Because I don't care about maximizing things. And I want to play my FW Lightning strike fighter. And have Thunderers as troops choices. And Commissar Tanks! And nifty stuff nobody else has. So, if someone could please point me in the direction of the Forgeworld book, that would be stellar. Thanks and have a great day! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InfestedKerrigan Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 A lot of the book is a bit out of date. Lots of references to Apocalypse on tanks instead of listing them as LOW. That's probably the biggest issue with the book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InfestedKerrigan Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 If you want to preview the book to make sure you want to drop the funds on it, I have a digital back up you can use. I will trust that you will delete it within 24 hours of accessing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
