Thanks!! I was on the edge if I should buy it. I have an old Imperial guard army also, and dont need any more troops. Keep up the great work!!

I love A Militarum, and it is my first army, but I find its very easy to customize each of my squads with their own unique paint sceme or style and sometimes with a neat cloak. I think they are very versitile and customizable.

Consider that you can mix and match all the gun/arm options on different torso section to really help with changing the poses

Hey! I’m totally new to Imperial Guard but watched your video and bought exactly what you recommended so thank you! Two Cadian Stand boxes, the new Defense of Cadia Xmas box and the Minsk castellated. Not a bad price point for 1500 pts or Models. What would you fill the other 500 pts with to get to 2000?
@DaRedWunzGoFasta
9 ай бұрын
That's awesome!! I would fill in some areas that are missing from those boxes, namely elite infantry, so I would start with 2 units of Kasrkin and a unit of Death Korps of Krieg. Next would be a Tank Commander (just buy a normal Leman Russ tank, it comes with a guy you can put in the turret as a Commander, or if you want to jazz it up get the new Cadian Upgrade box) so you can order the tanks and finally a Commissar, making 500 points exactly.

Probably the best part of the cadian shock troops is that they can sticky the objectives. But then again they can be shot off the board pretty easy. And they don't do well in close combat.

Sticky doesn't sound bad at first but guard players don't really need that because they have so many models on the board. All other options are better. Normal infantry to defend characters and stay behind (mortar for them), catachans are cheap and scout and krieg who are strong and can be made quite tanky. Right now I'm always using my Cadians as normal infantry or I proxy them as Catachans (I don't want to buy the old models, they might get a refresh in 1-2 years).

Great take! As a semi new guard player who started in 8th I feel like this box is so underwhelming, I already own a rogal dorne so the Idea of having 3 is unreal, additionally it really bugs me they keep putting command squads in all the boxes i have like 3 and i dont want more.

You could always sell off you extra sprues, or sit on them and challenge yourself to come back later and do a better paint job when you feel ready to sub out your old paint jobs and then sell off the olds or keep them for your showcase or dioramas, maybe terrain details of corpses... Not to mention the Garden of Nurgle could always use more humies...

I hope the rumors are true and they come out with upgrade kits to represent more regiments. I mean obviously each regiment having their own kit would be awesome, but upgrade sprues seem more likely.

I don't really see that happening because you can't really change how they look. Backpacks are on the torso parts, the shoulders on the hands so basically you can only change their weapons. What I can see that they release all the other regiments in kill teams. There are gossips that Catachans and Elysians might come in kill team.

Have you ever took the leap and decided to start a new army with one of these christmas boxes before? I have yet to do that, my impulse buying is relatively tamed so idk if I could ever drop $200+ on a box for a faction Iv never played haha. All 3 of my battleforce purchases since starting the hobby have been made to bolster my current armies or planned armies. Im not saying itll never happen but not anytime soon I think

I've done this 3 different times. Some boxes are better than others, and those 3 offered a great balance force and discount. Also purchased a few new armies through Combat Patrols (or start collecting, or even vs boxes) It really depends on how much you want the army and the discounts they provide. Know what you want, what you're willing to 'invest', and what your goal is for the army before you start purchasing.
