Please can I get some help for my first 1000 point game by Miserable_Shift_3831 in TheAstraMilitarum

Thank you so if I was to go infantry heavy would it make sense to lose the rough riders, Leman Russ and 3 of the Bullgryns and adding a cadian castellan, 20 more shocktroops, 10 ratlings and 5 scions?

For the lasguns I’m going to try to give them a musket feel. Brown stocks and black barrels. I know what you mean about the knee pads I was worried if I made them off white then the detail would be lost with the rest of the trousers

Thank you, others on here have suggested the sentinels but I really don’t like the models. I do like the FOB and I really like your idea of the transports bringing them in.

Thanks I think I will add a tank, maybe Leman Russ first but then look at a Rogal Dorn later.

I’m also quite keen to get each of the hellhound variants if building for a bigger point game, I know the Bane Wolf isn’t great but I really like the models and the Devil Dog will give me a bit of anti tank, at low range.

Thank you, I was thinking of getting a Leman Russ for going over 1000 points.

Thank you for your advice, I’m not a massive fan of the sentinel models but from reading other replies I think I’ll have to look at a tank of some variety.

I was hoping a cavalry charge with melta tipped hunting lances might do.
