Imperial Guard Tips

Design cover for your normal troops, there weak armour means you will need to take advantage of all terain and if you are playing at a home terain make sure it is designed so you get the advantage.

Keep your men in small squads so that when the enemy fires at 1 squad you reduce the risk of them killing tons of mens. About 10 or 14 men in a squad is a good amount of men.

If you have to many heavy support you will have a slow moving target, not enough lead to make a weak army. Balance your heavy support well.

It is best to small squads so your guys can live longer

Imperial guard fast attack is not the best, a rough rider squad is handy. They also have good assault wepons.

Fire as many wepons as you can, imperial guardsmen weak armour means that they need to fall back to their strong wepons.

Use cover as much as you can, the armour save is bad so use it!

A good HQ is a Yerrik with all his special rules. Another good HQ is a solar macharuis, if you have him in battle you can go chose to go first no mater what.

Don't keep your normal troops far back, you need to get them close so that there wepons can hit the enemy.
