Tactica Imperialis: Imperial Guard

August 2009·pp. 22–29

THE SHORT VERSION

Andy gathers advice from several experienced Guard commanders. Orders and combined squads make the infantry more adaptable, while armour and airborne troops solve different problems. The contributors discuss splitting a battle line, withholding tanks in reserve and denying useful targets to enemy weapons. Sentinels and the new flame-tank variants illustrate how specialised units fit into a broader plan.

Leman Russ Demolisher, Punisher and Executioner

Three turret configurations turn the tank into a siege weapon, high-volume gun platform or plasma-armed relic. The kit also includes the available hull and sponson choices. Extra armour preserves the Demolisher’s familiar robust appearance. The release connects greater assembly flexibility to different tactical requirements.
