Dang, I wish I had rats! Drop Syvarris and Shoiri and gain 4 groups of rats for a screen.

Thanks, I was reading Sonlen's Book and read over that he'd be great with high life heroes due to his Dragon Healer so I threw a high life army together along with Raelin (I think that army would be better) and came up with it. Do you know where I can invest in some rats for cheap, I know Frylock has some up for sale but only 3 of them and they're all pending?

Re: The Army Judging Thread

I have two 650 point armies (because that is usually the lowest point value I can talk my group down to playing).

Impenetrable
Raelin (RotV) 80
Siege 200
2x Hydra 440
Theracus 480
2xM-43 Resistance Fighters 610
Marcu 630
Isamu 640
Otonashi 650


Soldier Synergy
Marcus Decimus Gallus 100
Alexander II 270
2xWarforged Soldiers 430
2x10th Regiment of Foot 580
Marro Warriors 630
Isamu 640
Otonashi 650


I realize in the latter case that this army would probably benefit from having at least one more of the common squads, rather than the last 70 points I have there, but those are the most I can possibly gather of those two common squads when all of my friends' collections are together.

The first army could have more M-43 Resistance fighters (and would, if I had the points), but there's nothing else there I want to give up. I could pass on the second hydra, but the idea of two hydras and siege tying down the middle of the battlefield with support from Raelin seems really intimidating.

Let me know what you think.

10th tend to be better than Spider man, Nilf is better than Iron man in most cases. This army also has a very easy OMs.

10th reg x5
Nilfheim.

OR
This army just gives Nilf a screen and then fills in with the highest recomended filler.
10th reg x 3
Nilfheim
Greenscales x2
Marcu
Isamu.

Re: The Army Judging Thread

Here's another concept.

2x Arrow Gruts
2x Swog Rider
Krug
Mimring
Ice Troll
Isamu

495 pts/ 16 hex

Seldom in life is the right thing to do and the easy thing to do one in the same.

I would drop the troll and Isamu for 3 more swog riders and marcu. I would then drop marcu and Mimring for Raelin RotV and Two more squads of Arrow Gruts.

I would use the second except that I would drop two more squads of Stingers for Raelin RotV and anotehr squad of Deathreavers.

So:

3x Singers 180 (60 each)
Torin 300 (120)
3x Deathreavers 420 (40 each)
Raelin (ROTV)500 (80)

Re: The Army Judging Thread

Thanks Neo.

Which is better:

Tor-Kul-Na
7x Marrden Nagrubs
(430/23 hex)

Or

Tor-Kul-Na
Su-Bak-Na
4x Marrden Nagrubs
(500/16 hex)

Seldom in life is the right thing to do and the easy thing to do one in the same.
