Unfortunately, I don`t own the Greeks, Neo. Even if I did have the Greeks, I would still use the Romans.

Re: The Army Judging Thread

This is the army I was going to use for the Gencon Main Event, but changed my mind. What do you guys thinks?

Aquilla's Captured Marro
Stingers x 4
Mogrimm Forgehammer
Darrak Ambershard
RotV Raelin
500 Points - 15 Spaces

Also the other day I tried,
Red Hot Iron
Fire Elemental x 12
Iron Man
660 Points - 13 Spaces
With this army I led with the FE, slowly leading them out, then when I started to notice a little bit of trouble, I zoomed in with IRON MAN TO THE RESCUE! Aka, save the little guys butts, and it worked well for me. I've only played it once though.

I also made a fun, agent army, but have not tried it yet.
Microcorp x 2
Nakita Agents
Krav Maga Agents
Agent Carr
520 - 13 Spaces
Or you could change it and go
Microcorp Agents x 2
Krav Maga Agents
Nakita Agents
Deathreavers x 2/3
500/540 Points - 20 Spaces

In the first army, I would replace Darrak and Morgrimm with Kaemon Awa and another squad of Stingers for a super competitive build.
In the second army, I would replace iron man with Kurrok, two more fire Elamentals and a water elemental. The agent armies need Laglor.

Re: The Army Judging Thread

I just tested these two armies:


KoWx 2
AE 110
Finn
Thorgrim 80 each
Eltahale 140

And:

WoA x3
AA x2
Syvarris 100
KG 20
Emirroon 80
Arkmer 50

Feedback is appreciated. Do you guys think these are tournament caliber armies as they are? Please tell me you thoughts.

Re: The Army Judging Thread

Sgt. Drake
Railen
Tarn Viking warriors
Omnicron snipers x2

total = 500 points

What I do it I grab some height with the snipers. Then I get Railen and the vikings up there. If I get them up there before any major fights break out then I have the snipers shooting people up on height, and if you come to attack the vikings get in the way with 6 defense (+2 from Railen) Then Drake pretty much cleans up and kills the people running away in fear from my awesome army. I made this for the tourney coming up but it looks like I may not be able to go. Still its fun to play so I thought I`d enter it in here. (It need to stay all Jandar.)

Re: The Army Judging Thread

this is an army i came up with that would be fun to play, and horrible to play against;

Kaemon
10th x3
Reavers x3 (drop a reaver)

465, 24

and another:

kurrok
FE x6
WE x4

450, 11

A variation on firestorm, but with a little range, and units that excel on terrain that the FE's have trouble on.

I really like your idea on the first one. Unfortunately I don't have Kaemon Awa or any more stingers, but if I ever get the chance i'll try that army.

On the second army, iron man kind of became my "safety net" if I got in trouble, so I'm kinda worried that with Kurrok I would loose all that extra fire power. You know what I mean?

Wishwishwish I had laglor...

Actually, tossing in Kurrok is an almost necessary move when building an elemental army. It allows you to triple your activations per turn, which is especially helpful with the FEs because you get three chances to roll Searing Intensity on a figure when you would otherwise get only one.

My point is, I fail to see how not taking advantage of the full power of the Fire Elementals is losing "Fire Power".

Re: The Army Judging Thread

This is an army I built in attempt to use as many figures in a turn as possible. Heavy Gruts into Ornak into Kurrok into the Elementals and Brunak to move Ornak and Kurrok while they're skipping their turns.


Heavy Gruts - 70

Ornak - 100

Brunak - 110

Kurrok the Elementalist - 120

Fire Elemental - 35

Water Elemental - 30

Air Elemental - 30

Total 495


This is my first time on Heroscapers and I think it's a wonderful site. Im glad such a fanbase exists.

Re: The Army Judging Thread

Welcome Lief45!

In general, you want to stick with one theme or another, or at least not try to mash two completely different armies together.

So, if you want orcs, take out the elementals and put in more Heavies. You don't really need Brunak either...You can replace him with Grimnak. And I assume you want an extra hero so the Red Flag'll work? Well you can always use Nerak, MBS(who fits in any army), or soething else that' cheap.

By the way, if you were trying to get turns with Elementals and Brunak, you need to remember that your Kurrok only gets those 3 turns if you reveal an OM on him
