Army Test
- Does it pass, Yes or No? YES!
- What should be the unit's point value? 125 POINTS
- Give a brief summary. Perfect! A little more conservative play from either side could have turned the tide, but it was super close up until the end. The Warriors are a force to be reckoned with, and good strategy can really put the hurt on high-level heroes.
Map: Swamp Lab

Light-Speed wins; 3 Wounds on Flash, Green Lantern destroyed, 5 Rounds.

ROUND 1: The Apes and Grodd advance. Flash runs in, misses his attack on the Warrior, and falls back onto height. The Gorillas swarm him – the first rolls five skulls, but Flash rolls four shields, taking a wound and flying into another ape; the ape is killed, but Flash takes no damage. The next attack triggers his dodge. Grodd approaches. Flash kills a Gorilla and falls back onto the Speed Glyph. Grodd takes a turn and attempts Cognizant Control, but fails. GL moves in and attacks Grodd, but does nothing.

ROUND 2: Grodd smashes Hal, dealing a wound and some knockback. Hal gets onto height and blasts Grodd for three. One Warrior attacks Flash, but he dodges. Grodd attacks Hal again, dealing two wounds. Hal retaliates, dealing two wounds and finishing Grodd off. A Warrior approaches, and one of the two smashes Flash, but he runs away with his dodge. Flash runs up and kills the two Warriors.

ROUND 3: Flash can’t really move, so he nabs the Glyph again. The Warriors move one more onto the road. Flash runs in and attacks, killing one Warrior. The Warriors swarm with ease, getting three attacks of six; two wounds in total, but he dodges the last and runs away. Hal flies in and smashes a Warrior. The Warriors swarm, but can’t do anything to either of them.

ROUND 4: Hal kills another Warrior, but the two attack next and Hal overestimates his strength – he whiffs against two skulls and is killed. The Warriors move in and attack Flash, but, no damage. Flash kills the Warrior. The Warrior attacks, but is dodged.

ROUND 5: Flash only rolls one skull with his attack, but the Warrior whiffs, ending the match.

Army Test
- Does it pass, Yes or No? YES!
- What should be the unit's point value? 125-135 POINTS
- Give a brief summary. Wow, these guys are Lantern-killing machines! Arkillo got a bad roll early on, leaving the Soldiers with an army of Apes to face down; the Gorillas could easily deal some damage and/or force a burn with each turn, so it was really a matter of time, and the Soldiers did not have enough time to fight the tide off. They felt above-average here, but not by TOO much... the Sinestro Corps could have done better if they kept further away.

Army Test
- Does it pass, Yes or No? YES!
- What should be the unit's point value? 115-125 POINTS
- Give a brief summary. In an army against ranged figures without any Simians to help them, it was a washout. They’re great hero-killers (smashing both Green Arrows and Robin with ease), but less efficient against squads, which seems like a fair match to me.

ROUND 7: The Cops deal a wound to Manhunter. He flies up and kills one. However, the Cops turn things around and finish him off instead. The Gorillas move in, but whiff on their attack.

ROUND 8: The Gorillas put up a good fight, but against the Cops on height they have no chance.

FINAL THOUGHTS: 125 seems about perfect. Against heroes they can more than earn their money back, but when squads come in to tear them up from range... they’re mincemeat. So, I think we're good!
