This isn't the exactly correct place for it (read the OP), but I'd likely go with Gladiatron/Blastatron or maybe a Q9/KMA army. Of course, you could take either of those army cores as a counter to lots of armies!

Now, onto Foudzing's army!

How about:

Dividers x 6 300 (a decent match-up against four squads of dwarves)
Cyprien 450 (infiltrate and assassinate Raelin)
Marro Warriors 500 / 23 (clean up and a much-needed bit of range)

I think that ought to do it.

WORST. PALADIN. EVER.

Overall Tourney Record: ....I don't even remember anymore!

I think that ought to do it.
120 Deathreavers x 3
180 Taelord
200 Snipers x 2
500 19 hexes

Cyprien's only target is Taelord and he won't last long against boosted Snipers. The Deathreavers should be able to hold off the Dividers while the Snipers plink away at them. While Q9/Raelin might work better, this should work.

Re: "I could beat that army!" Theoryscape Challenge

Quite risky to give all your strategy in 2 Zettians...

If a sniper kills a zettian at beginning of the game it will be difficult...

I really don't like this defense-Zettians-boring builds.

But with the 2 squads of Phantoms Knights it's okay.

Fire Elementals don't care about high defenses. The Airs can help against the Phantom Knights, but with only two squads of the latter, they shouldn't pose much of a threat.

10th x4 300
Eltahale 440
DED 500

Ranged Commons should be able to carve up the elementals, and Eltahale can [hopefully] Thunder Step next to the elementalist and/or Raelin. DED is just there to make you sweat a bit.

Q9
Q10
2x Stingers
Me-Burk-Sa


Multiple attacks are to much for the 10th and Eltahale and DED will be pumbled by 2 squads of stingers.

While anything can happen, I'd bet on the Q9/10/Stinger/MBS army

True. The three Deathwalkers, while maybe offensively sufficient, have very little chance of taking any sustained attacks from Q9 and Q10, especially as they are outranged.

More to the point, though, is the counter to that army.

Sonlen -- 160
Zetacron -- 240
Repulsers x4 -- 400
Snipers -- 500

500 points and 18 hexes.

Simple enough really. The repulsers engage the Deathwalkers.

If they don't finish the Deathwalkers, the Snipers and Zetacron attack with Deadly Strike and Targeting Beacon.

If that doesn't work, Sonlen yawns and sets his dragon on them.

I don't want to sound rude or anything, but an army of soulborg with a grand total of 3 life between them isn't hard to beat.
