17th Praetorian Guard (3)

For the information in these three posts on the Praetorian Guard I am indebted to the 40k Fandom

The Praetorian Guard’s regiments fight in a similar way to the regiments of the Mordian Iron Guard, presenting perfectly formed firing lines and unleashing precisely timed volleys of las-fire, despite the chaos of battle around them.

The Praetorian Guard are known for their incredible discipline, and will not break from the line under almost any conditions, displaying a fortitude that is near superhuman when compared to other Imperial Guard regiments.

The Whole Platoon:

Missing a Missile Launcher to complete the collection.

I would be interested in paying a reasonable price if someone has one they wish to sell.

  1. Those missile launchers are tricky to find for a reasonable price; I’ve paid 50 Canadian dollars each for mine.

    It’s highway robbery but normal if you play these older Regiments. I’m short an Autocannon and it’s a pain trying to source one!
