An in-depth Guide to Imperial Guards
By Akfiz
Almost everything you want to know about Imperial Guards: Key Principles, Campaign Advices, Build Orders, Strategies, Tactics, Priorities, Morale, Garrison, Tiers, Hotkeys, Infiltration, Units, Special Weapons, Add-ons, etc; you name it, it's probably here.

F.A.Q

Is this guide new players friendly ?
No, it executes them for failing to defeat the Chaos in combat Yes.

This guide is huge! I just want to know the basics and I don't want to read all that!
That's why I also made "A Short Guide to Imperial Guards", it contains only the basics without going into details.

This guide is huge! how am I going to learn all that ?
Read something you're interested in -> apply. Read something you're interested in -> apply. Repeat.

For more details check out the "F.A.Q" section of the guide.

The guide was originally meant for Winter Assault.
But now it's also compatible with Soulstorm.

-> The major Imperial Guards changes from Winter Assault to Soulstorm are the air vehicle, heavy weapons team and infiltration.
-> And they are all discussed in dedicated sections in the guide.

The Guide is here:

The Short Version that only talks about the basics to make them moderatly functional and stable enough to keep your ground and even win in skirmish against powerful AI, it doesn't go into detail.

Couldn't you just have copy-pasted the original guide while changing the stuff that needed to be changed ?

In reference to your comments about weapon placement, the Marauder is a lot like old bombers; the weapons on are are for self-defence, designed to shoot at fliers on its tail. It'd really be at high altitude far above the battle, but that doesn't work in the scale of DoW.
