Advice Needed And What To Buy

[lippy]

Hi,

I need to get a final few things to get my army up to 1500pts, and need advice how best to go about it.
Please assume I have no bits and bobs (although I do have a small amount but not enough to make one guy... I have no spare legs!!)

I need:

3 x Standard sergeants (las pistol and cc weapon)
7 x Guardsman (las guns)
2 x Melta Guardsman
2 x Plasma Guardsman
1 x Vendetta

Obviously I'm looking for the cheapest option. I would rather build them all myself, so please don't just say 'eBay' without suggesting what sprue's / box sets I search for.

Cheers

Ebay is a good source of cheap models if you dont mind stripping them down. If you want good clean models to start with you might want to try a bitz store or the trading post.

EBAY!

Vendetta would be cheapest to find on ebay..

Plasma and meltaguns are cheapest on GW Space marine bitz, plasma + meltagun pack (5 in each) they are metal thou..

Infantry you'd need to buy 2 boxes of 10 cadians or a old 20 man box of Catachans if you can find them.. But as you mentioned it is cheaper to go on ebay and find old models..

It is even cheaper if you go to a gamestore/local tourny, sucker punch someone and run away with their army.. That way you don't have to pay anything at all..

Nahh but seriously thou, plastic crack is quite expensive..:/

for just lasgun infantry GW has a single 5-guardsmen sprue for $12 which is pretty much the best value for $/guardsmen you can get. I save the cadian boxes to make all the special pose guys (sarges, flamers, grenades, voxes) and just fill up the lasguns with those single pose figures.
