I don't like the idea of giving them 6 move and then tying them to Kiova's range 5 aura that requires separate OMs to move. I don't like the EI very much, but this variant sets them free.:

560 Einar Imperium x4
90 Atlaga
100 Marcus Decumus Gallus
750, 14 hexes

7 move EI means nobody can shoot you from past your threat range, and if there are some LOS blockers around you're going to be able to get first strike on a lot of ranged figures.

Re: 750 pt Army

The idea wasn't so much to tie them to Kiova, but to give a special aura on the battlefield, so that they could stay alive until engaging the enemy. In that army, I would literally just put the first turn marker on the empress and move her out six spaces. All of the other turn markers would go on the EI who have access to that aura up to 11 spaces away from the starting zone. Combined with the height they can easily get with six move and flying, that aura should keep them alive for a little longer. Considering that their low defense is what hurts them most, I figured a well positioned Kiova would provide their best competitive solution.

Re: 750 pt Army

I'd go with soldiers and warlords.
2x 10th
2x legos
Marcus
Ngs
Ae
Mittens
Finn
750/24
When Finn dies put him on ae or ngs but until then he supports legos.mittens helps legos destroy heavy hitters. Ae take care of chearleaders,ngs directs traffic and protects marcus and mittens. Marcus supports soldiers. 10th cleanup with marcus (and whatever is left).

Re: 750 pt Army

Not necesarily... if his snipers took high ground on a bridge or a cliff they could probably keep taelord out of sight and raelin could probably hold her own. And plus, 15 snipers would put up a good fight. four ae? Fifteen Snipers? Sounds like a day in hell for Sgt. Drake's buddies.

Re: 750 pt Army

3x Deathreavers
Raelin
Nilf
Braxas
Q10 (745/19 Hexes)

Pretty disgusting, as these units all work well with Reavers and a Raelin enhanced Braxas is pretty amazing.

There would be more than just the ae. Who would be ignorant enough to pit
110 points of units who may not even enter the battlefield against a 750 army???!!!

Re: 750 pt Army

How about:

Charos 210
x3 4th 210
x2 KoW 140
Sir Gilbert 105
Thorgrim/Finn 80

It's basically a normal valiant army, but the point limit being 750 allows you to add charos.

Re: 750 pt Army

Since I know 'scaper94 is against getting multiple common expansions, I'll give you a unique army.
SBN - 180
NGS - 270
Marro Warriors - 320
Stingers x2 -440
Nagrubs x2 - 500
Hive - 660
Mardren Hounds - 750
31 spaces, So you could substitute.
Maybe Hounds for Drake Alexander RotV? Then kill off one Marro Warrior.
Maybe not the best. But all I gots.

I love birdies and butterflies and rainbows and unicorns and glitter.
