Hope it's not a Marro ripoff! Hives, Hiveminds and castes.. That's a Tyranid/Marro theme already

I'd like for Valkrill to remain; he might be my favorite general when you include the c3v stuff

Think outside the box for a minute. What if it's really 65 Height, but only the bottom 11 or so are modeled? That way, we'd get eight independent based legs "ankles down". There's no worry about finding enough grouped-space for the figure to move, it's not a single-piece mold. Different heights? doesn't matter, each leg moves independently like part of a squad. There could also be another "floating" head unit to attack its targets, and the legs could kick/stab/crush adjacent units. Each leg/head could be targeted. And this would be reasonable, production-, price- and paint-wise.

Even without C3V, that's my stance. Valkrill is a mangled abomination, and he prefers it that way. There's no way I could just not respect that. This is the man who summon demons when even Utgar won't.


(And this is why I labelled myself the "speaker for Valkrill" on the AH server for a while)

As it happens, I do have a quote about that...

Great idea

Hah hah, I saw I was quoted, so I came to look. Didn't expect it to be for that pearl of wisdom.

Hypothetically speaking, would it be tournament legal for me to unleash a horde of living venomous spiders upon my opponent while I'm using the craven court?

No, because live spiders refuse to restrict themselves to only moving during their own turn, and you didn't pay for their point cost.

We'll count three spiders as equal point cost as a squad of Fyorlag spiders, so if I bring 12 black widows and dump them on the board they'll cost 160
And how do you know I don't have a psychic connection with arachnids that allows me to control their movement? They don't call me the arachnomancer for nothing
