For your bare minimum FOC guard army I'd recommend :
1x officer blister pack $12
2x cadian box $70
1x chimera $35
Total cost $117
That'll give you a bare bones HQ (officer and 4 guardsmen) and infantry platoon (officer and 4 guardsmen for command plus 20 guardsmen) and an armored fist squad (chimera and 10 guardsmen). Plus you'll have 2 men to spare. |
yep that's only 1 infantry platoon... still though, if you want to be dirt cheap, the bare "minimum" is only a box of 10 storm troopers + command squad box.
gotta love the grenadiers doctrine! it allows you to take upto 3 'storm trooper' squads as Troops units with a few extra limitations on the squad's abilities... so technically speaking, you can start off a guard army with them instead of an infantry platoon or two.
cheers!
