The grav chute back packs are a $1 each.
If you buy three squads then, without any packs etc, they are £35 for ten. They are however, i think at least, the best looking IG models available atm. They do lots of different styles to. Catachans, valhallans, mordians, paetorians and other options. Really good manufacturer. They even do feral world guard, which is a bit of a change.
For me the force is staying as an allied detachment. Thus i have 1 HQ, 2 troop, 1 FA, 1 elite and 1 HS. This is just a usable distraction from my marines. So for I have the 1 HQ, and 1 troop (the platoon). I also have a squad of karskin stormtroopers i am going to paint as my elite in a valkyrie DT. 2 plasmas and a pair of plasma pistols on the sergeant, they are only 10pts in the list. The plasma meshes well with the hot shot guns at low AP. I also plan to get a vulture as my FA and have a heavy slot free for either a battery of sentry guns or a navy flyer, probably a avenger. If i do another troop it will be vets in carapace in a Valkyrie DT. Mad robot do some night vision heads and shoulder pads to up the armour a little to carapace standard. I also was going to add a HWS with HB's. I know they aren't the best choice but they do the heavy weapons from aliens model and with a little converting it will be a HB. If they do release the heavy weapons they are talking about then i'll add a couple of mortar squads for ranged support.
To top it all off i have got the old Kal Jerico model I have found recently in a loft tidy which i am going to use as an Inqusitor. I can get those servo skulls then for increased deep strike accuracy
COmmand squad nearly done, just waiting for an ink wash to dry before final details.
Stay tuned guard fans.
