Ok so I've been trying to make an apocalypse list for my guard army and I want to combine my squads the only problem is I DONT KNOW HOW!!! Any advice is welcome please post back A.S.A.P.:)
 
You tell your opponent you're combining them when you deploy.
This is not a decision made during army list creation.
 
UltraPrime has hit the nail on the head. Given that you can take 2-5 Infantry squads of 10 men each, the max combined squad is 50 men.
 
I wasnt saying I made a 100 man squad I was saying if I could make 5 squadss of 20 guys which by the looks of it... I cant:(
 
The codex specifies that you can purchase squads of ten; there is no way to purchase a twenty-man squad in the codex, unless you're talking about Conscripts.

You could take three platoons, each with four squads of ten then, at deployment, combine those into six combined squads but that is, again, a thing you do at deployment; not when creating your army list.

Of course with three platoons you also need three command squads as well, which can't be combined, and a company command squad or other HQ choice to make a legal list, but that's neither here nor there.
