        Yup. A Sentinel company would be one of the most feared units
in the IG force, IMHO. Fortunately, he can't afford to take too many
of them, as they have that Eldar problem... "*BLAM* Hey, 4 VP!"
(Loaded Wave Serpent) IG companies are huge, and their high break
points is one of the strengths of the army, so too many Sentinels
dilutes this.
