I am interested to see what some of the more interesting weapon choices/strategies this community has come up with? Ever had a guardsmen decked to do nothing but buff his other guardsmen with commands, or a footsolider of the imperium who could tackle a space marine? What about a guardsman who could not singlehandedly take on a grot? lets hear it!

I ran a Heavy Gunner with a Mace Fist. Beat an Ork Nob to death in melee straight out of character creation. Seen some obscene power builds though that you can get away with if you know what you're doing.
