If you have the hobby patience and are willing to use the magnets, Dave's method offers the most variety, with minimal investment. And it save you from needing to create a bunch of different extra stand you won't need half the time. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk |

I support the Dave method; I like being able to swap around where my supreme commander is from game to game - particularly for marines and chaos marines where the lists afford you that flexibility. |

Hi all, i am new to the SMs and to E:A as such, and am just in the starting phase of building a ton of Forumware marines... so i have limited options to expand in future... so i wanna get it right the first time... i currently plan on 2 formations each of Termis / Assault /scout / Tactical / Devastator and want to inklude some charakters for them, but it seems the default answer is : chaplain all the way right? because i only have limited amounts of them and very nice minis of the other dues i really would like to use... so how to handle this dilemma? |

For my Space Wolves I only had one wolf priest model so for the 2nd formation of Grey Hunters I had to use a Captain model - but really I will tell my opponent they both have Wolf Priests in them. I think so long as a stand is distinct in some way and you make your opponent aware nowadays folks are happy to accept that one character can be another. |

You show your army list to your opponent at the start of the game and mention what is what. Counting Rhinos as Land Speeders would be a no but a character is probably acceptable. See http://epic-uk.co.uk/wp/event-calendar/ for tournaments by the way, though that's only applicable if you're in the UK and there won't be one for a while yet with the virus. Most players will take a Supreme and Chaplains and some use Librarians but Captains are poor and rarely taken. Given each marine company normally has a single Captain and Chaplain I plan to model both on a stand with a command stand and count the stand as a Chaplain in game. You can then still field and model the captain without the subpar game option. |
