The standard core of any Assault Company force is the Assault Squad.
Squad: Must consist of 10 men including a sergeant with jumppacks. May be upgraded to vet sergeant & stubborn.
Weapons & Wargear: Bolt pistol & CCW; Frag Grenades.
Options: Up to 2 marines may replace their BP/CCW with Plasma pistol & CCW for +5 points each.
The whole squad maybe armed with krak grenades for +2 points and meltabombs for +4 points per model.
Characters: The sergeant may be upgraded to veteran sergeant for +15 points. Veteran sergeants may have additional weapons and wargear from the Dark Angels Armoury.
Design Comments: The ability to field assault troops as TR choices is compensated by insisting on full squads. As this is a reserve company one would expect it to maintain full strength squads. |
