Hi

Chimera's are IFV's, not APC's.

Rhino's are APC's armed with just twin linked bolters, not bad armour, and carry two squads of infantry.

Chimera's are IFV's armed with a Multi-Laser (turret) and Hvy Bolter,(front). They have the same armour of an MBT (same chassis), and carry two sqauds of infantry.

Why isn't this reflected in the stats & army lists? The IFV listed under the McGregor clan seems more appropriate. (And I've never seen a Squat IFV in the old Space Marine/Epic games).

Thanks

Adjust to suit.
Get opponent to agree with your logical amendment.
Check cost of your Chimera, apply to your army list and all should be happy.
I've re-jigged bits from both the marine and the red guard list. They are guidelines until somebody starts forcing competition lists at each other.
As for short vertically challenged troops, I thought that they used chimeras and rhinos, but i am scratching the back of my brain.Stunned

Hi

Nah - just the Rhinos, But they did have those large tanks (size of Colossos) and the Land Train. All shielded, of course!

Thanks
