I'm quite new to epic, but that army is terrible... It is vulnerable in so many ways that a balanced force will just rip it to shreds! 6 activations (assuming you drop one of the 200pt formations to fund the 300pt vultures) is nothing and as others have said, the opponent will hit your weak formatio... |

That makes a lot of sense, thanks. Does sound a lot more useful now!
Would general consensus be that they belong (primarily) in termies/devastator? |

I've not played many games, only about 6, but I've used a captain in most and I've used the commander ability every time. I've also seen plenty of close combat where characters can get in. Maybe its just good/bad planning on our parts as players though I do see your point about risk (since my dice a... |

I may have missed this earlier in the thread, but I see little use for a librarian over any of the other characters. One of their MW's is going to waste and they are just leaders character wise, compared to inspiring chaplains or commander captains who both provide additional utility. Can anyone sug... |

Smaller? Hmm, that's certainly good to know. How much smaller? |

Thanks for the replies. What I meant in particular was what actual formations, not simply number of models but which kind, were inside. From what you said, Evil and Chaos, I'll have tons of tacticals - conversion o'clock! |

Hi folks, relatively new to the forums.
Anyway, was hoping someone could help me identify the contents of this box set, the marines in particular.
I'm basically wondering what formations are contained.
Thanks. |

Thank you both for the welcome! That is most interesting to know about the hordes. I had not really thought about that it seems. I was considering doing some chopping to put a chaplain in the assault marines, but your post makes a lot of sense, some commanders are probably needed. Though to be fair,... |

Anyway, was hoping I could get some advice too: (3650 pts, even if it is a strange one) Thunderhawk (200) Thunderhawk (200) 2 Warhounds (500) Tactical fm, supreme commander, 4 razorback (probabl... |
