First Ogryn

Among many of the things I like in the RT era Imperial Guard are the Ogryns. Big, strong and dumb -  with a child like faith in the Emperor. Ogryns come in a squads of five. Their leader - a bit smarter than the rest - is usually equipped with a ripper gun, flak armor and communicator. Normal troopers wear primitive armor and wield close combat weapons.

 Here´s the first trooper of my ogryn squad. He´s a Bob Olley sculpt and a one of the nicer ones. I think that Bob´s style really works out well with ogryns. The black armor bits, brown leather and khaki like colored head gear ties this model to the rest of my IG army.

It´s a really big model as you can see. That mace is roughly as tall as that WIP IG trooper next to the ogryn.

 300 points for leader and four troopers. That leader is quite a bad ass in close combat with those stats. And with T5 and three wounds the troopers can take some punishment too before going down.
