Hey guys,

Ive got some Beastmen for my ol style IG and was wondering what you count the old beastmen models as in Armageddon? Would you let them represent stormtroopers or just regular infantry?

By the 6.2.1 Counts As rule (rulebook page 127) you can basically have them stand for whichever infantry type you want, be it normal infantry, stormtroopers or even Ogryns as long as all Beastmen in the army count as the same type of unit.

And apart from that they run in chaos, beside the cultist of LatD.
(Check DRM's Standard Infantry for Stormtrooper or DKoK.)

I was wondering more what would be seen as the most "logical" usage, although maybe there really is none that is more logical than the other when it comes to beastmen. I guess Ill have them be stormtroopers if I play E:A, that seems the most convienient for me.

Edit: Good point Erik, they will come in handy when I turn to the dark side and make it a cultist army  :devil:

I use my Beastmen as "Mutants" in my Cultist army.
