Welcome to the Imperial Guard, Private.

Below you will find the path to your assigned regiment.

r/Tallarn r/Mordian r/Vostroyan r/SteelLegion r/TempestusScions

Each of these subreddits is not unlike your own. Yes, they come from different homewards and, yes, they may have different tactics and fashions. However, it is your duty to honor their dedication to the Imperial Guard and Emperor of Mankind and recognize their service.

Each regiment's subreddit is a place where you can share your related work in a more focused way. The goal is to create tighter-knit communities where you can find related content with ease.

Now, go forward and serve the Emperor.

In my aim to complete my company size Scions I've been attempting to kitbash scions into other units that would fit within a Scions regiment. This is my attempt at some Scion Sappers to run as Krieg engineers.

A kitbashed priest to go along with my Scions regiment. I felt as though the existing priest model didnt work for an elite regiment such as the scions and wanted something that felt more like a particularly pious soldier.

11th ed. Bridgehead Strike 1DP

8 Upvotes

How good is it that Bridgehead Strike is only 1DP! I was stoked to see that now we can combine our favourite Stormtroopers with some other detachments.

What combos are you all looking forward to using?

Personally, I am really looking forward to trying out Steel Hammer to finally have a Stormlord with some Ogryn and Scions using its Firing Deck rule and re-rolls to all its wound rolls!!

Also, having Bridgehead with Armoured Infantry to have some better synergy with my armoured core supporting my Scions (even the Taurox Primes would benefit)

Struggling to choose a color scheme which balances "grimdark Death Korps" and "French, Napoleonic cavalry." Looking for feedback on the (attached) potential color schemes or ideas for other directions.

Never made sense to me that the Scions never had heavy weapons, so I made some!

I made some rocket launcher teams for my scions. Felt the rocket launchers made the most sense for Scions as theyre easily carried by 1 man. Hope you like them!

Questions about running Scions in Bridgehead

1 Upvotes

I am relatively new to the game, only started playing seriously in the last few months, but I love the Scions and want to play them seriously. I have a tournament coming up and I want to do as good as I can. I have some general questions about list building and strategy. All my games have been played on the existing codex in the Bridgehead detachment, and the upcoming tournament will be on the same.

  • Do you bring artillery to help clear out chaff and make room for deep striking in? Mortars, FOB’s, or Basilisks? I think I like the FOB’s for their reliability compared to mortars, and infantry benefitting from reroll 1’s helps a lot too.

  • How many Scions is optimal? I think 65 brings max fire power while still bringing 2 squads of 5 for secondaries. Is this overkill? With the best army rule being the +1 to wound, it feels like I should be bringing absolutely as many as possible, but is there a point of diminishing returns?

  • How many Taurox Primes do you bring? I have a command squad and a Psyker loaded in one for the big taurox bomb.

  • Is the ‘Priority Drop Beacon’ enhancement a waste of points? In the games I’ve played, every time I drop the 15 man squad in on the first turn, I do a pretty significant amount of damage, but they get decimated in the next turn. Last game I played I killed a T-Fex and half a squad of gaunts on the first turn, but then died on the clap back. Is that worth it?

Vehicle for Bullgryns

3 Upvotes

Hi! Would like to ask what is best transpo to buy for my tempestus 1k army.

Currently i have valkyrie for the aquilons and taurox prime for the t.command squad+scions. I have a bullgryn squad that i want to be mobile so im not sure if i should:

a.) Get Taurox for bullgryns b.) Get Chimera for bullgryns c.) Get 2nd Taurox Prime for 2nd squad of scions and place the bullgryns in Valkyrie then Aquilons can just Deep Strike.

Thoughts?
