They really have great options.
Also, I've stuck this thread. Nice work and discussion.
And Drake's rating had always been based on monolithic Valiant armies using him. In that context (of say the old 520 with 5x Mass), he was a player, but perhaps a bit player. Paying 15 more for Nilf was never really an option.

Thanks for the sticky! Feels like I finally made it, now I can retire and die happy (??).
I really do like Valguard. Perhaps he is worth a B+. The problem is, as you mention, the rather stacked lineup he's competing for a slot with. I actually really like him in a Sacred Band build to be their NGS and tank hits on the front line as well as be a threat.
On Drake, good point. A- is probably fair, although I'm not sure how much of that is him and how much of it is the 4th...
