How do you post pics. I edited this because I can't seem to post pictures the right way. I had the thing sayin C:\Documents and settings....blah, blah blah but it didn't work. Does it need to be a web address and if so, how do I make one?

You have to host it first, you cant do it from your own HD.....go to www.imageshack.com and host it, you then get a link(pick the one in the bottom)...then just type Link...voila

I also have an anti-tank heavy weapons squad with 3 lascannons, a fire support heavy weapons squad with two heavy bolters and a missle launcher and schaeffer's last chancers with a chimera which happen to be at my friends house at the moment. I think I might know what you'll say about the tanks but tell me anyway.

Why in the hell is the tank black and red? Is that what you were thinking of?

yea thats what I was thinking of. I figured if I was an imperial guard I would be scared of some big bad chaos tanks so if I make them look big and bad and thought that maybe it would strike fear into the hearts of my enemies (that is if they were real), although i probably will change the color scheme.

Actually I like the color scheme of those tanks, every other race runs around in fancy colors who would never be used on the battlefield in RL, why not the Imperial Guard?

Can I "steal" the color scheme?, was wanting to paint one of my vanquishers black, with a taint of red for my commisar tank ;)

Old Cadians are the bomb :)

Anyway those tanks aren't bad at all, they remind me of some of my friends. Black and Red can also work really well when mixed with dark camo... I'll find a pic so you can see what I mean.

Black and Red go pretty well with like dark green and brown if you ever consider modifying your tank scheme.

Old Cadians... so cool. :) Ooh and where'd you get that commander? Is he converted? And those red Commisaars are awesome btw... I never would have thought of that.

Hey those tanks are pretty cool, maybe I'll try that out. The commander is a catachan called Sly Marbo. I'll tell you his name when I find it and yes the old cadians are the best (but buyin them in blister packs does get expensive).

Yeah that's why I only have a little over a squad of the old ones and over a platoon of the new ones :( but still. I've heard of Sly Marbo but I'd never seen the figure before.
