I think that the Guardsmen squad should get a Shotgun upgrade, for close range goodness.Effective against Infantry and moral only.
Out of convenience the model could like a Spas-12.Cheers!

A great idea. :D But unfortunately, it will require moddeling work. :( I'll have you know that UA mod a WILL have shotguns for IG if made.

old thread i know, but i noticed this and thought, why would you need a new model? just take the existing shotgun from SM and just create a new entity with modified values for guardsman.

Take SM scouts shotguns or check Revised Mod. Also, add them for Inquisition with laser snipers.

At least the shotgun would be good against the damn Tyranids

Only extra fool will send guardsmen against them. Guardsmen have only 2 purposes : sit inside bunkers and capture points.

For all other types of hazardous situations you have kasrkins.


Guardsmen really underpowered in comparison with other factions. I believe all factions should be fixed slightly. Especially tau stingerwings and crootoxes - tooo durable for live non daemonic beings.

Yes, of course, as you will. But they won't help you when you face something or somebody really dangerous.


Until then... Don't worry, be happy, drink whiskey, love siskey (rus. Boobs)
