By Rob Baer | January 8th, 2020 | Categories: Armies on Parade, Best of, Imperial Guard, Warhammer 40k

Well in keeping with the New Year’s tradition, here is the best of Imperial Guard that I featured in 2012!

If you want to find out more about any of these armies, you can always click on the Imperial Guard category as well.

Welcome to Armies on Parade, where I display (in hopefully good detail) some great looking armies from major tournaments all across the United States.

If you click on the Armies on Parade label you’ll be able to scroll through some great looking armies, all at once.

It’s like you were at a major event yourself, all from the comfort of your home or smart phone!
