Merry Codex Release Day!

[NonSequitur]

Merry Codex Release Day to one and all! I will likely go about purchasing my brand new shiny Imperial Guard codex as soon as I feed myself, boy am I of to a late start today. Then it will be time to arange what parts I can get from friends and GW red shirts for purposes of getting some cool new units on the field. Fun fun fun ;D.

Games Workshop even has shiny new articles showing how you can fully take advantage of the new Guard plasitic sprues, oh happy day. Well I am off to food and such can't wait till next week! After finales that is .

Slackin'...I got mine four hours ago.

Take the flat muzzle break from the baneblade sprue to make the LR Eradicator.

Oh hey, and I realized reading through the book that the Vulture's hellstrike missiles are ordnance 1 each, so you can only fire 1 a turn, and only if you fire nothing else. Worst. Option. Evar.

John was out of IG codices, so I simply acquired it from a "friend" ^_^ and got me some Ratlings instead. I like em' so much maybe I'll get a second batch.

I found out that Leman Russes can have heavy flamers as a front sponson option, sounds like I might need to get to work on that seeing as my poor demolisher always findes itself infront of a large number of opponents at close range that its main gun will inevitably miss, 'sigh'.

If anyone is considering getting new guardsmen or has some that are unasembled yet and are planning on aquiring the new Cadian command squad, you really should take a look at the GW website in the Guard article section. The one on all plastic guard armies is particularly good even though it doesn't point out every modification, it shows off some good conversions.
