My poor codex still has not arrived. It has been over 3 weeks since the seller shipped it via USPS (as confirmed by tracking number). This does not mean I could not play, however! GW would probably have an aneurysm if they knew... but I downloaded the popular army-list creator Army Builder and used the fan-created material to create a list. Granted, because I am cheap and have not bought the license, I can only have 3 separate units in my list. On the upside, the amount of points is unlimited. Perfect for combat patrol games, though. A infantry platoon alone can take up the entire 400 points allotted to a combat patrol scenario. AB is versatile enough to figure out how most of the equipment for the IG works, and I just filled in the gaps with info gleaned from 40k radio's episodes that review the IG 'dex.
What's more, is if I need to have a larger list I just figure out the points for each unit individually in AB before pasting the necessary info into Excel. It is not easy, but it works. Now I just need a printer.
