Well after reading the buzz on The miniatures page. I went on amazon and got tomorrow's war. I'm not gonna review it or anything or even talk about it much, that's been covered out there on the web, on a hundred other blogs, basically it's Force on Force in space.
Anyway this gives a use for my Shock Troops. I had painted 11, so I've painted up a few more. Here are some or the more interesting types; a Team Leader wearing a field service cap, 3 gunners with various types of laser guns and a specialist with a scanner.
Here is my platoon. I haven't painted a third squad, it won't be needed in most games.
In Tomorrow's war they are as follows:
Shock Troops
Quality: D8
Moral: D10
Confident
Normal Supply
Tech Level 2
Amour: Light (1D)
Platoon
1 HQ squad
3 Shock troop squads (I only have 2 squads painted)
1 Fire support team
HQ
Platoon Leader
Radio Operator
Shock troop squad
2 x fire teams
Fire Team
Team Leader
Grenadier or Laser gunner (AP:1 AT:1)
2 x Troopers
Fire support Team
2 x Gunners with GPMG's (AP:2)
2 x assistant gunners
But who will they fight for control on the universe?
My old Imperial Guard the 29th Witchinuka!!! (They may or may not remain the Witchinuka depends if I think of a better name. It's supposed to sound like one of those towns in the US midwest. They will remain the 29th 'cus they have XXIX painted on that flag).
Laters...
Nice Shock Troops. I'm also hoping to use my Shock Troops to play Tomorrow's War. Hopefully I can convince someone I know to try it out with me.
