well, im not sure if any one remembers, but back in an archive white dwarf. GW included the rules for various alien creatures dubbed "creature feature" in it, they described possible rules for a IG rough rider squad in which the gaurdsmen rode ferocious lizard beasts, and had rules for them also. On this page, they had a pictue of a very cool unpainted conversion of one of these models. It was one of those cadian sergents that have the head that looks like a high skool football coach, im sure you know the one, headset? screamin at stuff? any way, the best part of the model, was the wicked lizard he was riding, i had no clue what army it was from. No way was it a cold one, and it didnt seem like anything in a lizard men army. So i searched through the 03-04 cataloge looking for this mysterious lizard. I lookedin the archive section, the internet, everywhere.
I soon found, to my dismay, that said model was an old old model, that had not seen the light of the mould for many years, as GW had stopped making them.
I was sorley dissapointed but i always harboured the thought of a lizardmen rough rider squad, possibly usding the tallarn desert raiders and cold ones.

They actually do have Tallarn Rough Rider models yet they are on horses and they look much better than the current rough rider models. Also since we are on the topic of lizards...why do Lizardmen ride Cold Ones...I mean it's lizards riding lizards...

It does but since were on the topic of lizardmen beasts I thought it be okay and also I didn't want to make a random topic in the "Scales and Tails" forum.

Fine no one answer my question! Well anyways Storm Troopers are my fav Guard unit. They can infilitrate, be put in a chimera and all sorts of stuff. They are definitely worth their points.

Does anyone out there play or know some one who plays Harikoni Warhawks? That sounds like a really cool doctrine, one that i would consider playing. That or Talarn Desert Raiders.

And I don't blame anyone for not playing them, if you play a mission that does not allow deep strike then your army is screwed and there are many other better Guard armies.

I wouldn't mind that kind of a risk. warhawks are definitely my fav. It's a shame they don't have models of their own. I'm sure i could make some pretty cool ones out those stormtroopers you guys like so much if ever i felt like playing guard.

Stormtroopers are worth exactly how many points they are listed for unlike anything else They can do anything a guardsman can but twice as well. I actually believe that Ogryns are a very good choice because of their high strength and toughness and three wounds a piece. I actually fantasise about master crafting a Bone 'ead's Ripper gun because they use them to shoot and the book states that they use them in hand to hand giving them +1 strength! ;D
