This could be interesting.

Im thinking warrior tribes. But with the intelligence of standard line infantry... but we need to know what species of line infantry. There are many.

So its a PDF regiment from a civilized desert world. They are shock troopers who are undisciplined with esoteric beliefs and a preferred fighting style. Not to mention that are raised in a warrior caste but are in the PDF via standard conscription.

So what exactly is their preferred fighting style?

Given that they are a PDF and not standard guard it gives fair reason for them to have either indigenous weaponry or standard autoguns and lasguns.

Equally recruitment could be changed to Elite Tithe since the regiment is caste born which would make more sense.

So what does "counter" mean and what is the unique fighting style of these desert shock troopers?

>Unique Fighting Style
Ramming speed->Boarding party for vehicle to vehicle combat?

>>52638940
They hit and run the enemy into hard kill zones. Think like Fremen in Dune. Bait the enemy in, then spring the trap.

>>52638940
Also, now I think about it Fremen is even better, what with being undisciplined on the battle field, and liking the Church Militant. Maybe some fairly religious guys who act like the SoBs act.

They embraced their powerful sand-based economy. As a result, their preferred weaponry involves the use of sand in close quarters altercations. Pocket sand, if you will.

And thus the Glass Blasters were born. All cower in their glassy shadow. While some call their methods unorthodox, those people are often silenced by a swift handful of sand to the eyes.

Th' Imperium don't kill people, the heresy does. They don't like hearing it, but it's the truth.

so they fire supercharged sand particles...shredding the flesh from their enemies very bones!!...now...who are their enemies again?

>>52645710
The Tau

You've got this all wrong.

The only weapon that could actually do serious damage is a sand blaster. They could cut through shear flesh and plastcrete.

I'd suggest using them as some form of flamer template weapon which has a close combat ability too.

>we've created an imperial guard regiment that is basically an army of Dale Gribbles who sand blast tau into submission.
I suggest that the regiment culture consists of extremely paranoid isolationism. Given that they are a planetary defense force, this could be feasible. Glass Cannon Guardsmen are obsessed with secrets, conspiracies, and seeking the truth.
