===Infantry=== *'''Minion:''' The humble frontliner, but you only get one model while most get a group of them. Cheap as chips, but flimsy as paper. They lack options for melee, but you get a few decent gun options. *'''Support Minion:''' Alongside the standard guardsmen is a pack of heavy weapons. These are essentially Tough 3 minions toting a single heavy weapon (Heavy machine gun, missile launcher, mortar, autocannon or laser cannon). Each of these are quite impressive with range, so it's better to keep them as far away as possible. *'''Neophytes:''' The neophytes are more gun-nuts than the minions. Alongside the basic guns the minions get, you also get a whole second array of guns available (including free shotguns and the choice for another sniper rifle). You can even make one model somewhat good in melee with the option for pistol/CCW (or an energy pick or maul) and a banner for Fear. *'''Acolyte:''' 4+ quality makes them a bit more valuable, akin to a veteran for the HDF. They only get pistols (or buy flamethrower pistols) to do so. Instead, focus in on melee, since they get a ton of cheap heavy weapons in order to chew up enemies. Do beware that they still have 5+ defense, so make sure to protect them accordingly - or boost them with a mad scientist support. *'''Morph:''' Acolytes, but the Rending is replaced with AP 1. From there, you can buy Rending back or add +2 attacks or Deadly 3, which makes them very valuable against beefy units. *'''Mutant Brute:''' Your elite bruisers, each with 3+ quality and Regeneration to keep them protected. Each of them comes with a hefty energy pick, but you can instead grab an energy hammer with Deadly for crushing beefy heroes and bully tanks. *'''Soul-Snatcher:''' Straight from the alien hives list. Very mobile, but are only protected by a 4+ defense. Make sure that these guys are stuck in for melee (and you can buy additional attacks for that too). You can also give a model Psychic in case you need even more denial. *'''Elite Snatcher:''' Soul-Snatchers with 3+ defense and Regeneration. These guys are definitely better-suited for getting stuck in, but are considerably more expensive. *'''Minion Biker:''' Despite the default loadout angling to go for melee to accompany Impact, don't. Though your selection of guns is limited, you should consider getting them and not getting your minions flattened because you don't have many of them. You get melee weapons as well, but remember that you don't want to rely on them since they still hit on a 5+. *'''Minion Quadbike:''' The closest you get to an heavy weapons bike, and you'll get it for quite the bargain. The heavy flamethrower at start is kinda limited in range, but you can replace it with the freakish mining laser or the heavy machinegun for a very cheap 5 points.
