Platoon Based Steel Legion Army List
Steel Legion Imperial Guard armies have a strategy rating of 2. Steel Legion Imperial Guard formations and Imperial Navy formations have an initiative rating of 2+. Titans have an initiative rating of 1+.
Special Rules:
Imperial Guard Commanders ? Some Imperial Guard units and characters are noted as being Imperial Guard Commanders. Imperial Guard Commanders can order up to all of the formations that are a part of their company, added as a Support Formation to their company, or added as a Company Upgrade, to follow them when they make an assault, as long as all of the formations can trace 5cm unit coherency, even through other formations of the company, back to one unit within 5cm of a unit from the Imperial Guard Commander?s formation.
Alternatively an Imperial Guard Commander can order up to all of the formations that are a part of their company, added as a Support Formation to their company, or added as a Company Upgrade, to have the same orders of Advance, Double, Marshall, Overwatch, or Sustained Fire Orders and to fire upon the same target formation or combine barrage points as long as all of the formations can trace 5cm unit coherency, even through other formations of the company, back to one unit within 5cm of a unit from the Imperial Guard Commander?s formation.
Imperial Guard formations that are from a different company may be part of a combined assault or combined fire, but the number of formations that may participate are limited to 3 formations and there is a ?1 penalty to the activation dice roll for each formation from outside of the Imperial Guard Commander?s company.
Imperial Guard Command Rule ? Imperial Guard formations from the same company that can trace 5cm unit coherency, even through other formations of the company, back to one unit within 5cm of a unit from the Imperial Guard Commander?s formation are all considered to be part of the same formation with the allocation of casualties and blast markers. If a formation of the company is within 5cm unit coherency of the command formation at the beginning of the move and at the end of the move then they are considered to have maintained that coherency during that move if attacked by units on Overwatch.
If a formation leaves unit coherency from the rest of the company (or the company command formation is destroyed) then the blast markers are proportionally distributed between that formation and the remaining units.
Imperial Guard Mass Movement ? The Imperial Guard are not as well trained nor experienced as the long-lived Space Marines or Eldar. To make sure that such a large force can operate well on the battlefield the Imperial Guard relies heavily upon basic training and following the orders passed down from the chain of command. To represent this the Imperial Guard player must activate three formations every time it is his turn to take an action. Should the Imperial Guard player use an Imperial Guard Commander to combine the actions of multiple formations those formations count towards this requirement. Any attempts to retain initiative after the three required actions will only result in one more action, not three separate ones.
Commissars ? All Imperial Guard companies may include 1D3 Commissar characters. The Commissars do not cost any points. If the dice roll exceeds the number of Commissar units that a player has available then these may be represented with other appropriate markers (certain colored dice, special counters, etc.) as long they are consistent and the other player agrees.
Roll to see how many Commissars a player may add to each company at the start of the battle before each player sets up. If the company includes a Supreme Commander then the first Commissar must be attached to the Supreme Commander?s formation. Any further Commissars may be attached to any other formations that are part of the company. You may not include more than one Commissar per formation. If you have more Commissars than formations then any excess are lost.
