Is this completely incompetant? I'm being abused into starting a small 40k Guard army and I've been converting everything for it. The idea is to play with different races ala Tau but without the static firing and represent it using guard rules.
All the plasma guys will be Vespid models sans wings. They look like specialists that way. If Plasma is a stupid choice then as long as they are all armed the same I couldn't care less as to what they change in too.
Company Command Regimental Standard, plasma gun 80
Veteran Squad Heavy bolter, carapace armour, Plasma gun, Chimera 180
Veteran Squad 2 x Plasma Guns, carapace armour Chimera 175
Armoured Sentinel, Autocannon 60 - Looks cool.
