Editing Imperial Guard Regiment (section)

== Tabletop ==

Back in the third edition of [[Warhammer 40,000]], the [[Imperial Guard]] [[Codex]] included a "doctrine" system to represent different types of regiments in the Imperium. Some options would allow certain units to be taken in larger numbers, while others would allow some units to purchase special abilities. The [[Catachan Jungle Fighters]] also received their own mini-dex in Third and Fourth Edition.

The doctrine system was removed in the fifth-edition codex, though some characters can modify the army's abilities a little, and [[Forge World]] has published army lists for the [[Death Korps of Krieg]], [[Elysian Drop Troops]], and a generic "Armoured Battle Group" (tanks to the max) in their [[Imperial Armour]] books.

We have tacticae on the various Imperial Guard army lists that have been published:
* [[Warhammer 40,000/Tactics/Imperial Guard|Imperial Guard]], for light infantry or combined-arms regiments (especially [[Cadian Shock Troops]] and [[Catachan Jungle Fighters]]).
* [[Warhammer 40,000/Tactics/Imperial Guard/Elysian Drop Troops|Elysian Drop Troops]], for drop regiments
* [[Warhammer 40,000/Tactics/Imperial Guard/Death Korps of Krieg|Death Korps of Krieg]], for siege regiments
* [[Warhammer 40,000/Tactics/Imperial Guard/Armoured Battlegroup|Armoured Battlegroup]], for armored regiments or mechanized infantry
* [[Warhammer_40,000/Tactics/Solar_Auxilia_(30k)|Solar Auxilia]], for the elite of the Imperial Army during the Heresy era
* [[Warhammer_40,000/Tactics/Imperial_Militia_and_Cults_(30k)|Imperial Militia and Cults]], for the miscellaneous military units that formed the bulk of the Imperial Army during the Heresy era
