So i was wondering about few things today, i need to make sure that i get things right and after reading lots of fluff related stuff in web i decided that maybe someone here can answer a few questions.
1.What happens to veterans when most of regiment is wiped out? In codex it's stated that sometimes two wrecked regiments are combined but what if only one or two squad remains from few regiments? Will they be combined into some kind of veteran regiment?
2. Does Kasrkin recruit soldiers only from Cadia or sometimes from other planets? Do they act like commando unit or are frontline grenadiers like in HoTE. They are lately absent from fluff sadly.
3. Can a normal soldier became stormtrooper or is it exclusively for schola progenium orphans?
4. If two regiments are mixed together from different homeworlds do they have unified equipment or they use same stuff from their home unit?
5. Are there other elite units like karskin in regiments of catachan, tallarn etc?
6. Does normal units beside stormtroopers and high ranking officers wear carapace armor?
7. Does M36 Lasgun have a full auto mode? I know that rules state they can fire semi auto only but from what i read looks like they can go full auto.
8. Does Cadian Tri-dome helmet are issued only to kasrkin?
9. While looking at IG Codex weapon list i don't see autogun. So does IG ever use autoguns?
10. What is imperial policy regarding equipment? In some sources it's said that troopers (mostly veterans) use weapons taken from enemy and other non standard stuff while other sources say that nobody will allow guardsman to keep equipment outside regulations.
