Rough Riders anyone?

WHile we are kinda on the topic... Does anyone know where the most recent rules for Death Riders (or any current valid rules) and Death Rider Command Squads can be found?

 

Imperial Armour 12: The Fall of Orpheus

 

For the good Deathriders that is -- only the Assault Brigade Deathriders have 2 wounds.

 

There is a PDF with the Seige Regiment list for free here: www.forgeworld.co.uk/Downloads/Product/PDF/k/kreig.pdf

 

But the siege regiment Deathriders aren't as good.

I've had a compulsion to convert come over me suddenly. I thought Slaanesh rough riders would be fun. I'm just trying to figure out what rules would work the best for me. I don't suppose the Assault brigade allows Death Riders as troops? I'm thinking of ignoring the rules and just taking Death Riders as troops + a Death Rider command anyway... I think that would be a really cool army.

Death riders as troops would be so cool! 

 

I was thinking that Mogul Kamir needs to move to become a platoon commander after so many years of service. and let him have a few orders and abilities that he can pass on, like scout or outflanking. Or something for Leadership to keep every one from running off. I always just call him Khan... Not sure why that is..

Over the last few weeks as we had that "new codex thread" I have really been seeing a rough rider platoon as exactly what I want to add to my army. I don't know if we will bee so lucky. But I am really thinking way to much about it now.

And I hadn't noticed that they had 2 wounds before..cool.

Damn right, maybe borrow an idea from the marines and have a similar version of chapter tactics? regimental doctrines maybe? :) it would certainly make imperial guard armies more individually different ( Catachan would be good infiltrating scouts, Cadians would be well disciplined with better orders, death korps tougher and stubborn, and maybe create your own :) etc)

if they were to take something from forgeworld then please can it be sabre platforms, both rules and models, they look cool but get expensive really quick if you take a lot, a box of 3 in plastic with lots of weapon options would be great.

super rough riders would be good as well

If we get anything like the old Doctrines back I'll be as happy as a clam. 20 pts may seem like a lot but giving Rough Riders Carapace Armor is priceless and Hardened Fighters just finished the job, turning them into a genuinely good CC unit. Shame I didn't have the models then and only proxied once or twice.
