Hello,
I'm new and not sure if this is exactly the right place to post this, anyway get back to the imperial guard after years spent on the "bad side" of the barricade (Necrons and Chaos Marine)...
I'm starting a new project round on a completely converted Imperial Guard army themed on 51st Highland division in WWII..
Happy to be back!

Awesome! The others will tell you I'm something of a Celtophile; my own regiment was partly inspired by the memoirs of George MacDonald Fraser and his McAuslan stories of the Gordon Highlanders after WWII. I'd be absolutely delighted to offer unneeded and unasked-for suggestions!
Seriously, welcome to the IGMB. We're happy to have you. Watch out for the genetic samplers. Your initiation is to destroy a Chaos Titan, armed only with a broken skean dhu and a scorched sporran. Good luck.

You're spoiling the fresh meat.
Highlander, you have to use your bare hands. But let no one call me a heartless monster; you'll be issued with standard flak. It will arrive in three months.

Well not bad... I can use the broch from my plaid to block the knee junction and the kilt to block the air fan of the engine... It will end up with a naked highlander who run away from a hover-heated and broken down chaos titan

And remember: "IF IT'S NOT SCOTTISH... IT'S CRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP!"
Welcome to the IGMB! Remember that when you venture into the Today thread in the Underhive sanity is optional.
And possibly sobriety too, although that mainly applies to me.

Welcome aboard!

Welcome to the Imperial Guard, soldier. Here is your lasgun, flak armour*, sixteen assorted grenades long past their last use by date, a sawn off shotgun which appears to be missing it's safety catch, and your issue pint of rum.
Kindly go over there and clean that town out of renegades. And come back with some heads. Apparently we're miniaturizing them.
Oh, and if you ever mention the words "Astra-", we will have to assume you've been possessed by Mat Ward.
