New generic unit variation ideas.

[Inquisitor_Lensoven]

Let’s come up with some unique chapter units that are generic kits + upgrade sprue.

 

IF

Special HIs

Sgt get option for a PF

Special Ability

if this unit remained stationary ranged weapons in the unit get Sustained Hits2

 

Special Aggressors

boltstorm gauntlets

A4 BS3+ S4 AP0 D1 <twin linked>

Special Abilities

Reroll 1s to hit for boltstorm gauntlets

 

anyone have any other ideas?

Heavy Intercessor Sergeants should have an option for melee weapons to begin with. Why is that something that should be specific to Imperial Fists?

Why should they have a melee option normally?

Because that's fairly emblematic of Space Marines - especially infantry and especially battleline.  Sergeants with Hidden Power Fists is very on brand.  They've gone away from it somewhat recently, but the impulse remains.
