First Squad

I started painting on the last 2 guys for my 'command' squad. There a 'command' squad because I don't think I would ever just put a plasma gun, pistol and a sniper rifle in the same squad. Since I don't know what the new book will be like I am not going to give them any special tags and ect. I am going to make mostly normal lasgun troopers. I will prob not do anything with most of my Plasma gunners that I have already because they are Steel Legion. They already have great coats and look bad ass. I will prob repaint them because they have some chips and a somewhat ok paint job on them. I might add some GS to there backs to show cold weather gear but thats it.

I did see the cool looking banner barer on 40k online today. I think I am going to make something like this for my new IG army. It is just too cool not to. Just some ink jet friendly projector paper and I'm set.

On another note I did get my 1850 point Space marine army ready for the tourny dec 6. I will run a chapter master, 2 tacsquads with plasma pistol sgts, flamers and Missile launchers. 1 tacsquad with lascannon/ML and the last tac squad is meltagun/lascannon. There will be 3 razorbacks between them to move them around the board. I will also have a squad of scouts to either infiltrate or outflank. For my elites I have two stock dreads and finally I have 3 preds for heavy support. I think this will be a nice little list.
