Differences between Wardens and Guard Squad kits?

[eternal_warrior12]

Good day everyone. I’m reaching out to ask about the wardens vs the guardian squad. They don’t look any different to the eye other than weapons of course. Is there any difference to these kits other than spears vs halberds? Thank you all in advance.

Guardians have the spears or sword and shield. Vexilla guy can have misericordia and storm shield.

 

Wardens have the cloth around their legs and option between spear/halbeard. Vexilla can have a spear/halberd in his left hand.

 

I assume you know, but they are different units in the codex, Guardians being Troops choice and wardens an Elite choice.

Actually, literally everything is different. They have different heads, torsos, and legs.

 

They only look similar at first glance.

Yup! Bought the wardens box because it was all my FLGS had. Super fun to build and will enjoy small games when I get one more box of guardians because, honestly, I was looking to build a Warforged paladin with sword and shield for my upcoming D&D campaign. I look forward to this greatly.
