The Imperial Guard is a vast fighting formation, and unlike smaller forces such as Space Marines even basic troop movements involve the mobilisation of thousands of men.

The entire Command Section may be equipped with frag grenades for +5 points.

Characters: One Guardsman may be upgraded to a Veteran Sergeant at an extra cost of +10 pts. The Lieutenant and the Veteran Sergeant may be given additional equipment from the Armoury.
