Armies you won't see at Gencon

[Retlaw]

There have been several posts asking for help in selecting armies to use at Gencon, or posts listing possible armies by event.

So, for some fun, post your thoughts on some armies you know you won't see at Gencon. For example:

War of the Worlds (400pts):

• Kato Katsuro
• Spartacus

Championship (500pts):

• Kato Katsuro
• Spartacus
• Deathwalker 7000

Ok, now don't all use Kato and Spartacus since I already did the obvious/easy ones. What armies do you know won't be at Gencon?

Everyone knows that commons are what win tournaments:

Drones x 1 - 50
Glads x 1 - 130
Obsidian Guards x1 - 230
Grok Riders x 1 - 360
Arrow Gruts x 1 - 400
Deathstalkers x 1 - 500

Only problem is it's 25 starting spaces, so you'll have to drop a grut

For the championship:

Army - Ice & Fire
Dzu-teh x4 (300)
Obsidian Guards x2 (200)
Total - 500

This seems like fun...

Acolarh 110
Hatamoto Taro 130
Marro Hive 160
Templar Cavalry 120
Total 520

or alternatively
Ashigaru Yari x12 480
Sit 6 squads of Ashigaru Yari due to starting space limitations.

I never did figure out why the Dzu-Teh are 75 pts and the Obsidian Guards are 100 pts -- the Dzu-Teh are actually playable on a map without glaciers (not necessarily very good, but they are playable); on the other hand, the Obsidians are hardly playable even on a lava map.

I almost said "Championship doesn't allow Marvel", but then I remember my topic being "Armies you won't see..." Obviously an "illegal" army won't be seen.
