This tactica is intended to give a broad overview to a Guard army, things like approach, structure and overarching strategies and tactics to employ and think about. It will not deal with specific tactics, wargear, lists etc - aiming instead to look at the larger picture. As such neither will it delve into rules which should give it use in 7th Edition and beyond. Author's Note This is not a master class by any means, nor is it the only way of doing things - just mine. You'll hopefully be reading quite a bit and learning nothing new, what I am aiming to do is outline what I have learnt over many years of relevant interests and experiences. By trying to break this down into the smallest parts I wish to help new recruits find their footing and hopefully give some fellow grizzled veterans a new angle to consider. Like Guilliman's tome in the Codex Astartes this is a living document so I welcome any additions or clarifications you may have.

When you think of the Guard at war you think of two things first - the Guardsmen themselves and the ubiquitous Leman Russ Battle Tank. So much so that when people talk of Leman or Russ chances are they're not talking about the Primarch! How best to get use from this mighty tank though? With so many variations we are spoilt for choice and as a die hard tread head who better to get the ball rolling on a Russ tactica? Author's Note As with the Tactica Generalis this isn't going to be a comprehensive list but rather a summary of the Russ tanks and their good uses. New recruits will hopefully find this useful for getting to grips with all the choices we have and for the veteran tankers out there a springboard to add your own tactical wisdom! Index Imperialis The Leman Russ - The basics Sponsons - To sponson or not; that is the question Leman Russ Battle Tank - The old stalwart Leman Russ Exterminator - Autocannon prime Leman Russ Vanquisher - Reach out and touch someone Leman Russ Eradicator - No cover for you Leman Russ Demolisher - These 24" are mine Leman Russ Punisher - Fury made manifest Leman Russ Executioner - Not using that 2+ save are you? Tank Commanders and Pask - Russ+ Russes and You - A primer on basic use Closing - Omnissiah be praised
