TheAlchemist Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Before the big FAQ I usually ran 2-3 guard detachments per list. Now we can only have 3 of any one data sheet per army. At first this didn't bother me because my list at the time was a brigade detachment of either Cadians, Catachan, or Tallarn, a battalion of scions , and a battalion of space marines. But recently I've decided to go back to a pure guard list containing Cadian funking, Catachan Spearhead artillery, and Tallarn ambushing in for a second front. Problem is I only use company Commanders, but because of the big FAQ we can't have more than 3 company commanders. So I'm asking what I should take as HQs for the three detachments?

OtherKharon Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 From what I have heard Straken is a good choice. Maybe Sly Marbo and if you have tanks, a tank commander?

shandwen Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Lord Commisars are a decent option now, with points drop and actual useable rules. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/347577-big-faq-3-datasheets-question/#findComment-5089738 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Cyanide Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Creed, Straken, lord Commissars, Primaries Psykers. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/347577-big-faq-3-datasheets-question/#findComment-5089739 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akrim Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Tank Commanders are really nasty, esp Cadian Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/347577-big-faq-3-datasheets-question/#findComment-5089788 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinstryfe Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 I've been using Company Commanders as my first choice, Tank Commanders as my second choice, and Lord Commissars or Primaris Psykers when I need to save versus a Tank Commander or need additional HQs. Depending on the regiment you're doing, special characters could work. I do kind of like the Commissar because it works regardless of regiment, so in the rare case where I mix regiments across detachments they can still go wherever needed, which I kind of like.
