540 Point NHSD Armies
"Tree Town Open 4" and "Hexes in Texas 4" are going with 540 armies this year. It's even been suggested (but not insisted) that other large tourneys do the same. Why? Well, partly for the sake of this thread!
Crunching some numbers over on Gary's site, I came up with something nasty: Eyes-on-Guard (kind of like Isengard...get it?...ok that's why I don't name my armies...) Warden 816 - 90 Zettian Guards - 90 Gurei-Oni - 100 3x Blastatrons - 180 1x Gladiatrons - 80 = 540 || My Maps Review Blog || My Maps Thread || My Marvel Customs || Knights of the Daystorm || [/CENTER] |

Re: 540 Point NHSD Armies
I'm afraid a few tourneys will see this one:
Stingers x6 - 360 Major Q9 Based on Spider's recent success with Glads, Blasts, & Raelin, we'll probably also see this one: Gladiatrons x2 - 160 Blastatrons x2 - 120 (280) Q9 - 180 (460) Raelin - 80 (or an extra squad of Glads) (540) I personally think I might want to run something like this (if I could somehow get my grubby little mitts on a Skahen ): Wolves of Badru x3 - 240 Khosumet - 75 (315) Agent Skahen - 120 (435) Krav Maga Agents - 100 (535) |

Re: 540 Point NHSD Armies
I look forward to seeing people try to copy Spiders Blast/Glad builds because I'm willing to bet that most people (myself included) could draft the exact same army and still not play competitively with it.
That army takes a lot of strategy and expertise and practice to run effectively. It's not the kind of thing you print off the night before and just assume it's going to win games. I think the term Spider used in his GenCon report was "finesse" and that's the perfect word for it. For my part, I'm leaning towards a Marro build, but I haven't gotten anywhere close to deciding what. |

Re: 540 Point NHSD Armies
Shades x4 400
Ne-Gok-Sa 490 Me-Burq-Sa 540 Oh yes, I can see it now...bwahaha! In all seriousness, though, I don't like the new point total. I mean, it makes it even more terribly hard to build a nice Grut Army, and it encourages more blandness like the 6x Stingers + Q9 mentioned earlier. Quadraphonic(x2), Hilo-Scaper, SuperflyTNT 1-4/3-1/3-2/3-2 10-9 = 53% Win pct. |

Re: 540 Point NHSD Armies
I have to say those 5x and 6x builds are also the least interesting or impressive to me. But there's a lot you can do with that extra 40 points that you couldn't do with 500, especially with the uniques.
Wk, I don't see any way to limit those squadscape builds other than specifically creating a rule against it and no one wants to do that. || My Maps Review Blog || My Maps Thread || My Marvel Customs || Knights of the Daystorm || [/CENTER] |
