Best 500 point army with only 1 of every unit?

[Charr21]

I was young when Heroscape started. So, as little kids usually are, I wanted only 1 of everything. To my disadvantage, I was not aware of common squads/heroes. So I consist of most everything, but only 1 army size for each.

I thought I would post this because I thought other Heroscapers might have this problem.

So, what would be the best 500 point competitive army with these conditions?

A Vydar Range pod would probably work well. Something like...

Laglor- 110
Nakita Agents- 230
Agent Skahen- 350
Major Q10- 500

[Charr21]

Ok that sounds good. Of course one of the few things I don't have is flag bearers. Personally for me I don't prefer the Nakita Agents. I've never seem to make them work well without dying right off.

Alas a fellow who shares my pain.

Anyway, samurai could be fun:

Kaemon Awa 120
Kozume Samurai 240
Izumi Samurai 300
Tagawa Samurai 400
Krav Maga Agents 500 (Not thematically fitting, but they're a solid range group)

[All Your Pie]

Well, that build probably doesn't work very well without Laglor.

One thing I like is this-

Cyprien- 150
Sonya- 195
Warden- 285
DW9K- 425
Zettians- 495

It's probably not nearly as competetive, though.

While not an entire army, and sadly you're missing Ornak, but Grimnak and a squad of Heavy Gruts makes a solid core in my opinion. With only one squad they still seem to put a dent in opponents and are a notable threat enough to put mild pressure on your opponent.

I like it. Your right it's jot competitive, but I'm a sucker when it comes to Cyprien.

I'm glad someone can agree. I like this army too. Haven't used the samurai a lot, but that looks good.

[ladidadi.davis]

Thanks I wouldn't mind trying the army I posted but I actually never got the Samurai and Ninja set, sadness.

The 2007 championship army was an all-unique build:

10 Isamu
20 Marcu
80 Raelin RotV
100 Krav Maga Agents
110 Laglor
180 Major Q9
500, 9 hexes

If you have no Laglor, then you could simply toss in the Airborne Elite in stead.

This sort of armies can be extremely effective on maps that aren't designed to give melee a quick path to contest the high ground.

Hatamoto 130
Kaemon 250
Kozuke 350
Theracus 390
Izumi 450
Arkmer 500

If you're going to use this, dig up Hatamoto's strategy review and read my little slurr.

Well met!

160 Sonlen
150 Warhulk
110 Ninjas of the Northern Wind
80 Raelin
500, 7 spaces

170 Moltenclaw
150 Warhulk
100 Kozuke or Syvarris
80 Raelin
500, 7 spaces

150 Cyprien
150 Warhulk
120 Kaemon
80 Raelin
500, 5 spaces

With no commons, I'd build my army around the Warhulk, to deal with swarms.

Knights of Weston X1 - 70 points
Finn or Thorgrim - 80 points (150)
Q10 - 150 points (300)
Hyrda - 120 points (420)
Raelin - 80 points (500)

The KOW with a Viking hero make for a nice little bonded shield wall. 5 figures move & attack with 6 DEF if kept close to Raelin. Behind that front line you have Q10 (DEF 7 with Raelin) throwing out multiple special ranged attacks. Once the enemy closes, the Hyrda (Def 8 with Raelin) can reach over the KOW with 4 attacks. Once the viking dies put his spirit on the Hydra to make his attack or defense get even better.
