 Using Guard as meat shields
Well after reading Gent's post about getting a Baneblade, I decided to go through with my plan of getting a bunch of traitor Imperial Guard for use in Apoc games.
But what to get? I was thinking about just getting tons of troops and using them as a screening force for my Thousand Sons.....that sounds like something Chaos would do but I can't help but think there has to be a way to make them at least a bit effective while still not relying on them at all if they should all bite the dust .

"All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near. Hold out baits to entice the enemy. Feign disorder, and crush him."
