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... Casters of Valhalla: THE Competitive HeroScape Podcast!

Also, just play Scape all 4 days. It's the only game that matters . Casters of Valhalla: THE Competitive HeroScape Podcast!

And while the idea of playing 'Scape every day is tempting, there are still plenty of other things that I'd like to (and should) do as someone going into the Game Design field. I'm pretty sad that I couldn't go to the Team Tournament this year, though, so I'll probably sign up for that as well (and a C3V one if it's added). Don't worry, you probably haven't seen the last of me. Proud Member of Platyfly!

Multiplicity of Units
@Astroking112
Online Scape is also really helpful for getting to play with things you don't own. I feel fairly confident playing with just about anything at this point (seriously you should see some of the garbage I've brought to events where we I can force a certain set of armies to play against each other; dividers vs zombies was a personal favorite for amusement purposes, but I've played many other weird hodgepodges against each other) and Online Scape was very helpful in that respect.
Valguard is really underrated in my opinion. A tank that can hit for five dice is not to be underestimated. I think Drake is just very good for those points with lots of options (movement and a SA) and he just no sells some very good units (Krav, Wait then fire squads). I think he fulfills a different role than Nilf in an army so that's why I thought you were being a bit down on him. I need to go back through and find out all the places we squabbled and see if I have any further thoughts.

Re: Orc's Power Rankings
Edited with descriptions for some units, thoughts? Trying to reflect the power level of the unit as well as give some very basic advice on how to play it (and, conversely, how to beat it). Also trying to make it new player friendly.

Re: Orc's Power Rankings
I’ve never been to a tournament, but these are great descriptions so far! I’m excited to see what gets added on!

Re: Orc's Power Rankings
I like the blurbs so far! I wasn't confused by the "4x4" notation -- (number of attacks)x(attack dice per attack) -- but I wonder if others (especially newbs) might be.

Re: Orc's Power Rankings
Good point, thanks! I'll make a mention of that. I'm also going to make an index of commonly used terms in the competitive scene (for example, what's the difference between a Bruiser and Can-Opener, kiting, tech, splash, etc) and include a link to it.

Re: Orc's Power Rankings
That would be a really great resource.
