| Okay, I've been tinkering with this squad list for a few hours trying to get it just right (or as close to as possible ). Though most of my games are going to be against opponents under the age of 6, I do want to play the odd 'grown-ups' game every now and then. The Kalddag Ulvene Feral Imperial Guard Squad Using Lyubovs special rules (100) Officers Captain Uredd Leder (55) Powersword, Laspistol (29) Mesh Armour, Combat Shield (15) Total: (99) Leiutenant Bjorn Klem (42) Two-handed Axe, Laspistol (71) Total: (113) Sergeant Lang Tann (36) Axe, Autopistol (28) Combat Shield (12) Total: (76) Sergeant Stygge Ulven (36) Axe, Autopistol (28) Combat Shield (12) Total: (76) Infantrymen Dolke and Kutter (50) Combat Knife, Autogun (40) Total: (90) Infantrymen Jeger and Kriger (50) Combat Knife, Autogun (40) Total: (90) Specialist Brann Drake (36) Combat Knife, Flamer (20) Total: (56) Tactics wise, I'm thinking I can keep my squad together as much as possible, but when I do need to split them to take objectives, I can make two teams led by my Captain and Leiutenant, each with a Sergeant and two Infantrymen, with the Flamer going with whichever team might need him most. Heavily armoured opponents are going to be a worry for my poor autogun toting grunts, hence the powersword and two-handed axe in the mix, but hopefully I won't have to worry about that too much until the SMS and CSMS squads are officialised (I think I just made that word up). First purchase will be a Medic. I'd buy him up front... but I don't think I'll need him in my first few games which will be spent unashamedly beating the crap out of my childrens' fledgling squads. No doubt underestimating my sons' tactical abilities will end in Daddy tears... For the minis, I'm going cheap, cheap, cheap, combining the Shock Troops and Viking sets from Wargames Factory. Yes... I'm making space vikings Any thoughts? | |

| I would suggest on maxing out on officers if you are going to play a campaign as this is your only source of credits to buy stuff.

| I will 2nd maxing Officers... MAYBE not on your Squad, but on your children. That way they get maximum treasure, to recover from losses. Also, I would suggest giving them 3 more Recruits to start with. That way they can kick YOUR butt! Your Squad? * I would avoid Shields. We (and by 'we" I mean OTHER Developers!) are being revised. Do not spend money on that. Instead, I suggest a Helmet. ALSO... because the way that Rarity works (and lets not even talk about it) a Flak Jacket will cost you almost the same. I would go for that. * I would avoid Laspistols... not worth the extra money YET. Sluggers will do the trick... get you some cash for more Recruits. * VIKINGS ROCK! Remember... Pics or it did not happened! | |

| Sweet! Thanks for the advice guys! I've revised the list and managed to squeeze in another lieutenant, bringing my total squad strength up to a comfortable ten Great idea about the extra recruits for the junior officers, Mordheimer! I'm sure they won't mind having a couple of extra models The Kalddag Ulvene Feral Imperial Guard Squad Lyubovs (100) Officers Captain Uredd Leder (55) Chainsword, Slugger (25) Flak Jacket, Helmet (20) Total: (100) Leiutenant Bjorn Klem (42) Axe, Slugger (36) Total: (78) Leiutenant Morgen Fugler (42) Axe, Slugger (36) Total: (78) Sergeant Lang Tann (36) Club, Autopistol (18) Total: (54) Sergeant Stygge Hund (36) Club, Autopistol (18) Total: (54) Infantrymen Dolke and Kutter (50) Combat Knife, Autogun (40) Total: (90) Infantrymen Jeger and Kriger (50) Combat Knife, Autogun (40) Total: (90) Specialist Brann Drake (36) Combat Knife, Flamer (20) Total: (56) I won't be able to buy the figures until the end of the month, 'cause I'll be on holiday in merry ol' England, but I'm going to sit down and do up some concept sketches right now I'll post the results in a few hours! | |

| Cool concept, your sketches bring to mind the Norse Blood Bowl minis. The down side is they are metal and harder to convert. | |

It's pseudo Norwegian... or at least, Google Translate's version of it! Means 'Cold Day Wolves'. | |
