Imperial Guard have been my favorite army for a long time. Something about the standard guardsmen, facing off against the horrors of the galaxy with nothing but a length of plasteel, and an unshaking faith in the Emporer.
And they got damn big guns most of the time. Leman Russ tank in an HQ choice anyone?

Try doing some converting. That should help with the costs if you do it right.

Well, there are some good models in the fantasy line, and if you combine them with models from the IG line, you should be able to come up with A good army. Second, try to find stuff on EBAY, I have been on there for less than 3 days, and have already gotten about 2000 points worth of stuff for about $150. And if you are really, REALLY broke, you could always do the Proxy Army Of Doom.

Has anyone scratchbuilt a Basalisk? I am thinking about converting one to Loot for my Orcs, but I can't afford the actual model. Also, do you Guardsmen think the Bassie is worth its pointcost? Has it been effective for you in battles? Would a different vehicle be a better choice? And what sector of the Imperium is constantly losing ground to the vile Xenos scum every day and/or what are the colors of some Imp. worlds PDFs there? Anything is helpful.

Yeah, you can convert some good bassies, I would suggest just buying some of the bits to make it, though.

Bassies rock...they put they hurt down on anything that gets within range awful quick... Makes it hard to beat an entreched Impy Guard army...I can mostly run them over with banshees but their armor is always trouble for me... stressed
