The list sounds good, although I can't really see the point in having an officer with HI and a heavy bolter in the same squad. What do you usually do with your stormtroopers?

Thanks for the advice about the JO. I'll remove the heavy bolter, but now i've got 10 free points what should i spend them on?

oh and also, the stormtroopers were a bit of an afterthought to use up spare points i had... in games i just use them to tie-up enemy units from claiming objectives for a turn, or just to fire more shots.

Storm troopers are some of the best troops the imperial guard have at they're disposal. Make the most of them. They can peform almost any battlefield role. Thay can capture objectives easily through using they're superior mobility, they can deepstrike, they can infiltrate, they can take chimera transports. They can also take several special weapons for fire support.

I suggest using them to suicide against armor.

maybe include some missle launchers in the normal squads so you can have more anti-tank surpport. But thats a lot of heavy bolters man that will scare most armies even space marines.

maby switch the HSO for a Senior officer, save 22 points giving you 33 points to spend allowing you to give even more upgrades to your other troops. Or you could get 3 more storm troopers

I agree with twerd on the missile launchers, they would be handy.
