Do you, as I do, own a bunch of awesome Last Chancers models you wish you could still use? Ever think to yourself 'Man the IG dex is great but I sure wish there were more than 2 Troop choices?'
Me too. That's why I'm fixing it.

Penal Legionnaire
WS: 3 BS: 3 S: 3 T:3 W:1 I:3 A: 2 Ld: 7 Sv: 5+
Unit: 5 Penal Legionnaires
Unit Type: Infantry
Wargear:
- Penal Uniform with Flak Padding

Special Rules:
Emperor's Pardon: Troopers in the process of being rehabilitated crave above all else the Emperor's Pardon and the Freedom it signifies. They are Fearless in their desperation.
Behind Enemy Lines: The pseudo-suicidal nature of the Penal Legion's mission has brought them closer to the enemy lines than they ever would have liked they have the 'Scouts' USR.
Wetwork: A Penal Legion Unit may be split up into a maximum of four kill teams. Each kill team can have a few as one member and each is deployed and acts separately.
More Where That Came From: For each Kill Team lost during a Killpoints game roll a D6. On a 4+ they do not concede a killpoint. On a 6 they grant a killpoint to the owning player.
